I did some sparring in a Thai boxing class. That was pretty fun, but it got moved to gym that's farther away... I like BJJ because it's live training too - all wrestling/chokes/joint locks, though - no striking in class. Lots of our guys fight professionally or at least for ROF (www.rofmma.com), so I get to train with those guys all the time. Do you still get to spar at all?
Well, I ran cross country and track in high school back in... 1994-97. I actually wasn't that fast until I joined the Marine Corps. I trained for about a year to drop from a 24 3 mile down to a 18.30. Then I coasted for a while, but finally decided to see if I could drop more time. That's when I got down to 17.04 for my 3 mile. Couldn't break 17... *sigh* (probably because I started lifting and got up over 215!) I actually have classes with several of the University of Colorado runners; those guys/girls are amazing!
As for physics, I'm not going to do anything with it. I'm of the opinion that it's good to have a degree (preferably a technical one) and then you can do whatever you want... I have several job offers based on other stuff or I may go to grad school for a MBA. I'll probably want to work for a while... I know I need the cash!
not bad at all.
