/Lots to catch up on today. I have been in Venice, LA all week. It was pretty busy so I neglected to post here, but I was active…every day.
On Sunday, I left and drove 8 hours to Venice. In that time I had an opportunity to finish a book I have been interested in reading. Endure by Alex Hutchinson. It is about the elastic limits of Human performance. Particularly interested in endurance and running, Alex goes deep on the limits or perceived limits that we impose on ourselves and what is being done to try and break through those limits. Using lots of studies and science, Alex does a great job with this book. Particularly interesting to me were the chapters on nutrition, hydration and how our mind works. Highly recommended if you are into this stuff.

I drove home and listened to Joe Rogan with my friend BioLayne, Layne Norton on his show. This was a very good podcast that discussed Keto vs higher carb diets. Lots of great information
I brought back roughly 200 lbs of fresh, organic, line caught, perfectly treated swordfish, yellowfin tuna, snapper, cob and mahi. I had it all vacuum sealed professionally and it is in the freezer. Im set for a couple of months!
