It’s going to be a tight week for me.  It was Labor Day long weekend up here in the States – so Monday was a holiday.  I hadn’t noticed this when I scheduled this vacation for Wednesday through Friday.  So I’m working only Tuesday this week and trying to cram a week’s worth of stuff into it. I’m traveling down to Pennsylvania, about a 7-hour drive from my house, with my wife to poke around a little.  Then we’re going to meet the Extra-Milers for a race next weekend. I am still not running.  I am still on my workout cadence of Swim, Bike, Lift.  And, I was able to locate my wetsuit.  I’m looking forward to shaking the dust out of that tonight and giving it a try at the pond.  The weather is starting to get a little colder.  It’s in the 50’s in the mornings.  Tropical storm IDA dumped about a ½ foot of rain on us last week.  So, the pond water is dropping in temperature.  The wetsuit also makes swimming easier and safer.  It’s designed for triathletes and give you flotation in the placed you need it to help your form.  And, if for some reason you get in trouble, there is no way to sink wearing a wetsuit.  You float like a cork.  So maybe I’ll go a little bit longer this afternoon. The knee feels good.  I feel good. I’m tempted to start running again.  We’ll see how this walk/run of the ½ marathon this weekend feels.  Today we have got a very interesting interview for you all.  I managed to corral Dr. Jason Karp to talk about his book “Sexercise”, where he explores the connection between fitness and sex.  And, probably not surprisingly, there are a lot of connections.  Fair warning, if you’re triggered by people having a frank discussion about sexual activities, (all very clinical and non-titillating), If those kinds of talks bother you, you might want to skip this one.  In section one we are going to talk about race volunteering.  And in section two I’ll continue on my mindfulness sessions and talk about how to keep from following your monkey mind into the ditch. I’ve taken this opportunity of a relatively stable and relaxed training schedule, combined with
