So today was a rest day and dessert day. I spent the day in DC getting lunch with a friend in the Senate. First time in the Senate bldg and I have to say, I felt pretty important strutting around in there. Made a couple useful contacts for down the road; looks like the DoD may be interested in using us in some advisory capacity somewhere down the line. After my meeting, I went over to my senator's office to say hi, but he was out. Met his aide though and we talked for a while. All in all, it was worth the trip...the 104 degree heat, the ridiculous traffic, and the 4 hour metro/car ride home, 35 miles. Haha. I had a good time though, seriously.
When I woke up I had intended on doing a full body lifting workout with the compound lifts but was too exhausted, which is a good sign that a rest day is in order. Plus with my long day in DC I can say that I made the right decision. My dessert consisted of cheese and berries and a 90% dark chocolate Lindt bar; so freaking good. First time trying 90% and that is definitely the line that no one should cross. It is awesome, but I wouldn't go a % further. Tomorrow morning we are heading to Old Rag Mtn for a 7.5 mile rock scramble. Should be a great time and some awesome exercise!
