Done. Cooked. Just not mentally into it today, too much external stress from the opposite sex.
 
Do you mean tired from "extracurricular activities"? Or she is just stressing you out?

Throwing Practice with OC Highlanders


Braemar Stone - took 3 throw with a 25# rock...mid 20's

Open Stone - Mid to upper 30's pretty consistent. Did alot of standing throws. Right leg needs work.

HWFD (56#) - Took 3 throws, all around 23-24'

LWFD - Most were >45'. Got 2-3 throws over 50'

Light Hammer - mid-70's. Felt decent

WOB - Took a few attempts at 12-8. Not really close. Got some technique tips though.

Sheaf - took some throws, not very good - this one needs a lot of work.

Caber - Lots of failed picks, couple of decent picks.

Overall good practice. Looking forward to Queen Mary Games next weekend :-)

I planned on deadlifting today & starting my deload week tomorrow to prep for the Queen Mary Highland Games on Saturday, but I'm just not feeling it today. Yesterday after practice, I took a nap, then slept for 9 hours last night & today I've been tired all day. I'm not sure why I'm so tired, but I'm going to listen to my body for now. Us old guys have to do that occasionally. Today I'm going to eat a lot & then go to bed early. Very light week this week building up to the comp this weekend.

Been feeling like crap all week. Luckily its a deload week, but I haven't felt like working out at all, plus I've been working all week in a customer location that's about 1.5-2 hours away, so spending 3-4 hours in traffic every day isn't helping. Really feeling run down, at least I'm not congested, so that's good.

Queen Mary Highland Games tomorrow, hopefully I feel better. Going to shoot for 10+ hours of sleep tonight!
 
Good luck tomorrow! Hopefully 10 hours of sleep does the trick.
 
Highland games in February... bloody California. It's usually damned near April before the Midwest has anything on the calendar.

Good luck!
