Bike 3rnds: 7min on: 3min off

Did this at the Highland Park Reservoir this morning. I still need to get better at the aero bars and changing gears though my Cervelo P2 is absolutely beautiful.

How do you celebrate Memorial Day?

Is this Monday going to be all about BBQ and picnics and time with your family? There is nothing wrong with any of those things, but I’m going to take some time on Monday to remember those who have given their lives in the name of the freedom to enjoy that time and who’s families will be missing their presence maybe a little more on this holiday than on all the other days they go on missing them. In particular, I’ll be remembering one of my Marines from Afghanistan whom we lost last year, LCpl Abram Howard.

If anyone wants to join me, I’ll be at the Highland Park Reservoir at the pullup bars by the Super Playground @ 9AM on Monday.

LCpl. Abram LaRue Howard, 21, of Williamsport, PA died Tuesday, July, 27, 2010, in the Marjeh district of Helmand Province, Afghanistan, while serving his country in the U.S. Marine Corps training police and fighting terrorism in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. He is survived by His father and mother, Bart and Connie,his brother Alex, his sister Olivia, his maternal grandparents, and a host of aunts, uncles, and extended family who will be missing him dearly this weekend.

The Pull-ups are because he is a Marine. The Burpees are because of his wrestling background. The sprints are because he was a football player.
