I am here now. But everyone should go check out the new gym , or BTB , and leave me alone.

Last night we met up with Allison NYC, Tony Blauer, the Glassmans, Brian Mulvaney and others and we had a blast. Mike's cousin, Joe Gaspare, got a new nickname. From now on he is
"Joey Bag of Donuts."

We're off to the Games in a few minutes.

Yesterday's workout:

Walk a little over a mile to the MARTA station.

Run the Peachtree in 54:30, could have probably done it in about 50 min, but my girlfriend and I were forced to dodge and weave through the thousands of people who just decided the wanted to stop and walk right in the middle of the street, or not move to the right when they were slowing down. Where's the race ettiquette?

3+ mile walk back to my apt.

2 hours of being abused on a tube by my brother pulling me on a jet ski (a great arm and shoulder workout).

Stuffing myself full of ribs, brunswick stew, and blueberry and strawberry trifle in the shape of an American flag.

Asleep by 11.
