I'm trying to begin working out on a more regular and rigorous basis, and I think this last weekend was a good start. I spent two days helping replant natives on Scorpion Rock, a small island just off of Santa Cruz Island. Almost a week later, and I'm still sore!
I haven't gotten a chance to hit the gym this week, but it's just as well. I developed pretty bad blisters on my palms from the work this weekend. Climbing wouldn't be the best thing to do until they heal. I did get a nice long hike in at high elevation up by Idyllwild on Wednesday, checking up on a few of our research sites up there.
Next week I will be heading up to Santa Barbara for work. I will be building silt-catching fences for an erosion control study, which should be good for "weight-training". Whenever I travel for work, I usually swim a few laps in the hotel pool, followed by a night on the town with the rest of the work crew. This time, I plan to bring my road bike and try to do a few miles around the neighborhood after swimming. And instead of driving to dinner - I'll just bike.
