Hartle 9/9/26

I was able to jog a little today with no knee pain.

Also did 3 minutes of JR and a ton of kicks, so feeling pretty good about my knee recovery.

Time to start planning for next weeks trip to Aruba. 

Been doing so many pushups and pullups, my shoulders are getting a little achy.

May need to back it off for a few days.
