How do dirt racers do this? How do they stay up all night racing and be productive the next day? I'm living on caffeine and a few hours of sleep as I type this. We got in around 2ish and I slept on and off from 7 am till about 10:30 when I finally gave up. The dogs don't believe in sleeping in and they were super pissed their day was off from the start yesterday with me having to be at the track so early. Let me back up and start with the beginning of the week.
We ended up driving back the rest of the way Monday and taking a day off that we hadn't intended. I would rather be safe than sorry and also, I don't mind taking unpaid leave if I have to for the next trip. This is probably our last trip anyway for this year and I LOVE Colorado. We had an amazing breakfast before we left. I love strawberries and waffles!
The rest of the week was back to work. Since our plans have totally changed at work post my boss leaving for maternity leave, it's been a weird period of time. We aren't quite as busy as we usually are and I don't like that. I would rather be slammed from the minute I walk in, to the minute I go home. Slow is not in my vocabulary. I'm not enjoying this at all. Also, I have an unpleasant situation at work to deal with. I'm just going to leave that meme right there and talk about it next week.
I did get back on the lifting horse and got four work outs done. I completed one lower body, one upper body, one push, and one core and called it good. Ollie and I even got one mile run on a day when it wasn't one million degrees.
We also had a night race in which Andrew did much better. He and Tony practiced Friday night and made some major adjustments with the help of one of our club members Steven and Josh. God bless them for taking time out of their own kid's cars to work on ours. He got two podiums, a third out of four in Heavy Honda beating the other big kid in the heavies and a second in animal.
