I suppose I didn't take the Sun Moon Lake swim as easily as I could have. I did 3.3kg in about an hour, trailing a safety floatie-thing ("noodle" in Chinese), with my sandals and shirt tied to it, plus gads of people in front of me as I made my way. 27,300+ people are supposed to have crossed the lake. One man is still missing. Prayers for him and his family! After the swim I had to stand around for two hours waiting for my group to gather, during which time I prayed the Rosary. Then, after lunch, we had to walk an hour up the hilly road to get to our vehicle. A very tiring day. But well worth it. Had a number of dreamlike moments throughout the day but have not had dreams the past two or three nights.
Tonight a guy at Central, with whom I now happen to work, said I "look big" and "must have some power." I admitted, "I do… have a decent amount of power." He nodded and then guessed my weight at 90kg. Bingo. It was unusual, since I never thought I would "look big" to anyone, much less myself. But I am seeing some gains and I was actually taken aback last week when I saw some photos my girlfriend had taken of me during my Friday workout. I guess my large, tall frame is finally coming into play.
Stay tuned.
