11.9.16 Happy Hump Day!

Good morning, buckle up is a good way to state it.

Weights scheduled for lunch and then 45 minute trainer ride scheduled for PM.

Have a great day!

First election ever where multiple people have gone home sick from work--we got the final results at about 1 PM local time. Quite a few of our US ex-pat families are mixed-race; I think they have serious concerns (justified or not) about their safety and their children's in the new political climate. I used a game Tuesday to teach my kids how the electoral system works, so we tracked results online and colored in a map.

It was not a surprise, really. I predicted it from the exit poll that I heard at 7 AM here--they were asking people what was the main factor they considered when making their choice and 66% said change, 22% (I think) said experience. Pretty much figured out what was going to happen. There was actually someone on CNN last night (head of one of the Senate committees--I think Intelligence or Armed Forces) who said the same thing.

As for training, 50 minutes of running with some stride drills; after work 20 minutes of run strength stuff--sounds easy but quite nasty. It kept making me cramp. Had a headache all day and I still have it today. Maybe something really is going around at work, and it isn't just a "political illness".
