Monthly Fitness Test



A bit slower than last month, but there are many factors involved.  The good news is the general direction is maintained.  This was a rough month.  I had a lot of travel and a lot of bad things happen.  Travel and emotional distress are a bad combo for fitness, so I'm happy I was able to salvage what I did.
