    Spent the morning in Oslo, and then the day on the bus to Nedenes, near Arendal. Just getting moving and grooving and the blood flowing for a moment before it gets dark. Passed by two loud parties in Anne Helen's neighborhood on my run. The Norwegians are enjoying their Constitution Day weekend.

    I haven't lifted or done CrossFit in two or three weeks. I haven't trained jiu jitsu in over two months. The New York Open was on April 20th--I showed up to that without having trained the prior two weeks. Life pressures catch up on everyone. At the moment I'm in Oslo, Norway. It's their Constitution Day, the biggest national holiday of the year. There might not be another country in the world that celebrates this way and there isn't a bigger celebration than in Oslo. It's hard to adequately describe that nationalistic soul and pageantry being celebrated and expressed here, in the happiest senses of those ideas. Right now, of course, it's late at night, it's party time, and our hotel is located in Oslo's most fashionable district. I can hear the tecno music thumping from a few blocks away and the occasional "chink" of a bottle hitting the corner trash can. I'm in bed. Anne Helen is asleep, her head on my thigh. I write and record for a while, and then feel foolish for doing so and stop. No one reads, if they do they only learn how mentally effed up I am and short I routinely fall. Right? But, aside from life's pressures, that's partly why my training sometimes falls away badly. Recording results matters and many successful athletes say so. Discussing what you do and the reasons why may end up being foolish, narcissistic, flawed, and pointless, but so is everything, including a lot of good and necessary things. So, time to record and get somewhere better with this. There's no pull-up bar here in the hotel, so here's an un-timed Angie, without the pull-ups. The one thing I *have* learned through training is how to jump back in the pool--you just do it, and it's always the right answer.

    Well said Evan! Hope the water's not too cold when you jump back in.
