October 5,2015.8
There probably isn't a greater escape from all things of normal life than a trip to Universal Studios and DisneyWorld and Epcot in Orlando . That's where I've been the past week, enjoying my bi-annual trip with my sister. Today is my last day. Tomorrow I head to the airport at 11am Florida time (8am Reno time) and arrive back home, back to reality, which in itself has been a bit altered since April 1, 2015 about 8 pm.
On Wednesday I'll find out how effective mental practice/preparation is. Wednesday I hit the ground running, putting in all the practice I can for the final 10 days before testing. I haven't done push ups or sit ups or run since September 24. I've done my stand up combos floating down the lazy river and gone through my flow roll in that same location. I did do one set of 50 push ups in the shallow end of the pool. I did however walk 148,617 steps this week. Almost triple what I normally walk in a week. I hope that counts for something.-)
I feel I'll have the energy for the last push. What has seemed almost endless is coming to an end. I can dig in and do what needs to be done. It's not anywhere near as long as it's been. For that I'm grateful.
There are two parts of testing that I'm not totally looking forward to: performing my open form and conditioning. In terms of all that I've done, these are both a blink. I'm working on remembering that.
Back to reality. But right now there's the Boardwalk, Hollywood Studios, the Magic Kingdom possibly a sake bomb and many steps in my immediate future. I'm going to be in the moment, where I am right here, right now and let tomorrow take care of itself .
