Blog Entry
Thursday, July 26 - Tuesday, July 31. Sunset Beach (Orange County), California
My wife and I are in California for six days to visit my daughter, who turned 21 on the 23rd of July. She is a student at Orange Coast College here and will transfer to the University of California at Irvine soon.
I am about three week out from my next contest, the 2007 NPC Alabama State Championships in Birmingham, so I brought my contest prep mode with me to California. It’s a little tough, though, when you wake up in the morning at the hotel and pull back the drapes and look out at the Pacific Ocean. Cool.
Nevertheless, I went to the 24 Hour Fitness center in Huntington, Beach, introduced myself to the manager, showed him my Pro Card and Personal Trainer certification and he immediately gave me a free week’s membership so I could train at his facility. Sweet. In return, I am giving the club a plug: club105@24hourfit.com, a great place to train.
Thursday was a travel day, so I didn’t work out. Today I did legs and calves. Tomorrow, I will drive to Torrance in Los Angeles County and meet up with one of my Distance Personal Training client-athletes to work out together at Gold’s Gym. I will train at 24 Hour Fitness on Sunday and Monday. Tuesday we fly home.
Unless something unusual occurs, this will be my last journal entry until I return from vacation.

Was great to hear you had a great experience at our club there in Huntington Beach and thanks for the plug! I’m with our corporate offices up in San Ramon CA and happened to come across your blog today. You have a great story and I had to do several double-takes after reading in your profile that you are 64! Wow!
Good luck in your upcoming competition and drop me a note if you are ever traveling in our areas again!
