Well, last week was insane, for a few reasons, all of them pretty fun. I
had a friend come in for the Fourth of July weekend, which was spent swimming,
grilling, and watching the first two-thirds of
Independence Day (that movie is loooong, and after
entertaining a toddler in 100 degree heat all day, you're spent). Then,
after he left Tuesday morning, the Durfette and I immediately had to start
preparing for a trip to Deer Lodge, Montana to visit her mom and her mom's
husband. We left Friday morning at 3am, because it's a 7.5 hour drive,
and we wanted to have as much time there as possible before we left Sunday
morning to come back. Due to my buddy being in town through Tuesday, and
the rapid-pace nature of our trip the following weekend, I decided it was the
perfect time to throw down on a vitally important, but often overlooked
component of a fitness routine: the rest week.
