4/1/10 Thursday
Tire flip contest

Decided to have a tire flipping contest with another trainer today. We have a "Big F&^%$#@ Tire" at work and decided today was the day to attack it. Actually it was the tire or the Prowler and I talked Tony into the contest so I would not be alone in my misery. We did three "sets" each; me flipping the tire three times each to his five each. Had a difficult time getting my fingers under the tire to "grip" it. We finished on the lawn which was a bit easier since I could lay hold of the tire. Can't wait to do that again...I really did enjoy it.
