Today is the FIRST day of the NCAA Tournament!  Let the “MADNESS of MARCH” begin :)   This is the best time of year.  There have already been some great upsets and there is even more to come.  My KANSAS JAYHAWKS play their first round game against Lehigh at 8pm tonight.  Here’s to a great win!

I am really sore from all the heavy weights yesterday.  Its a good sore.  It validates all the hard work that I put in yesterday.  As crazy as it sounds, it can be mentally challenging to work really hard and for many hours and not really “feel it”.  I spent a good hour stretching.  I stretched my legs, my arms, my chest and my back…I think I need a MASSAGE!  All the stretching and I was still sore :(   Oh well!

I walked on the treadmill for 25 minutes at an incline of 8.0.  It got my heart rate in the 130’s and kept it there the entire time.  Fat burning?  If not, it was burning something :)   Right?

Then it was back to BASKETBALL!  What happened to Vanderbilt?!  A 13 seed beat the #4?  Notre Dame, you let me down!  You were a 5 seed and lost to Old Dominion #11.  Oh well, that’s part of the FUN of MARCH….or is it the MADNESS?!?!

Regardless, I enjoyed the afternoon at the gym just watching basketball and playing with baby Liam (Kevin and Jill’s 8  month old baby)!  He is so cute and super smiley  :D
