Now, I'm in Training

I'm in the homestretch before classes actually start.  I have a mountain of reading to catch up on.  I'm also trying to manage the rest of my life to maximize my performance in law school.

The first and biggest thing is that I've started working out again.  20 minutes on the treadmill two days ago.  10K rowing yesterday.  Rowing is a lot easier than running for me.  I just have never been much of a runner.  I have really short legs and once I put on a little extra body weight, it's hard for them to move me along very fast.

I have been thinking of trying to get a stationary bike that's the same model the Navy uses and see if I can do my PRT on a stationary bike.  Hey, I'm old.  Give me a break.  We'll see.  The run is a struggle if I don't prepare much.  If I do prepare, it's not an issue.

I really intend to keep up with fitness throughout law school to help me manage stress and keep my energy levels up.

I need to finish my E&E on Civ Pro.  It's a drag.  I am undecided whether I'll be doing the other two E&Es prior to classes starting.  I think there's a huge benefit to going through the E&Es first:  you learn at least the basic concepts of the black-letter law before setting foot in class.  However, there's now only 2 months to go. 


I still have LEEWS and Getting to Maybe to get through.  If I do, I'll hit "Planet Law School", the two other E&Es and maybe "Later in Life Lawyers".  The only other thing on the reading list that's a bit of a wish-lister is "the slacker's guide to law school".

Fortunately, for the time being, the business is doing well.  So, that eliminates a stress in my life.  It should continue to do well for the rest of the Summer.  My finances are still in a hole, but I'm digging out relatively quickly these days.

Now for the Civ Pro E&E.  Time to get crackin'.
