That was the longest, non-injury related break I’ve taken from jiu jitsu. It was a combination of many things. I got a new tattoo, which need some time off to heal. I had family in town visiting. The Mudder. I’m buying a new house. All of which took priority.

Being back on the mat on Saturday was good, and it sucked. I was winded and tired after the first half a round with JP. I went one round on, one off to manage.

Rolled with JP, Sarah, Renato, JR and Harris. The best round was with JR. We both got some nice sweeps in.

August is going to be a pretty sparse month for jiu jitsu as well. A couple of vacations, house stuff, more work on the tattoo, etc. Gotta get my mat time in while I can.
