Today it snowed.  Not planned.  Had my workout gear at home and wasn’t able to go home and get it until later.  Not planned.  Then I forgot my workout journal.  Not planned. I had to improvise my workout.  Not planned. It turned out great.  I have been battling tendinitis in my forearm for about a  year and a half.  It has been feeling a lot better, so I thought I would test it out.  Not planned.
