Now that 2020 Marine Corps marathon has been cancelled, I'm training with a loftier goal for the 2021 race.  I think i can hit top 10.  Old-timer wrestling tourneys don't exist in FL and weren't all that common in WI when I lived there, so training for races is how i handle that desire to compete.  And during Covid, I can still train just as i would during non-pandemic times.

I started doing Spartan Races. I hate running, but I tell myself I'm just running to the next obstacle. It works for the first half mile or so.  ;D

Try a marathon. It is a 2 mile run followed by 24 1 mile runs and quarter mile "sprint or crawl"

This body wasn't made for a marathon. Also, I simply cant play mind games with myself for that long.

I saw a small bobcat friday morning right outside of Park Falls. What lake are you on Fish?

Quiet Lakes Chain (Lost Land, Teal, Teal River Flowage)  We are the headwaters for the Chippewa Flowage.

Not far from me. I usually go and ice fish on Moose Lake a couple times every winter.

What do you catch, walleyes?  Big numbers of them present, reportedly.

I purchased an insect net and have been collecting and mounting rare specimens. It's not easy, but very fulfilling. It's hardest at night as the rare moths are the fastest and tend to disintegrate while embalming is taking place.

Interesting Tom!  Insects are a particular interest of mine as well.  I still have the collection I started in college (circa 1980).
