Yes it's Thanksgiving, and yes I'm lucky enough to be in a place that will let me train! Back home in Texas, and Metroflex is open from ~8am-10am-- so I was able to get all my training in without sacrificing any family time. Always thankful for Metroflex Arlington, and Brian Dobson for helping me feel at home while traveling.
