I beat the rain!

So after just over 220 miles the rain finally stopped. I am just south of Savannah GA and celebrated by stopping for some food and to wring out my gloves. They are totally soaked and my hands are freezing yet again as a result.

I figure after I gas up here I'll shoot for another hundred then call it when it gets dark - wet gloves + below freezing is a bad idea no matter how cool I think I am!

Oh one other issue - my phone is almost dead and I'm fairly certain I left my charger in a motel room a few days back. Woops! So I'm keeping it turned off and only checking it when I need to, should be able to milk it a couple days that way. Updates via Blackberry mostly for now then!

Background:   I visited Tiger Muay Thai (TMT) from February 22 to March 23, then returned again from April 15 to April 28, 2010.  I had no previous MMA or Muay Thai experience, though I did grow up wrestling.  I came into my visit with above-average fitness but definitely not close to elite level. The Gym Facilities: TMT is amazing, and they finished a big expansion while I was there.  There is TONS of room, with seven+ massive separate training areas of various sizes, tailored for MMA, Muay Thai, weight lifting, and crossfit style workouts (kettlebells/etc.).  ...
