in geneva until friday midday for meetings, although i kind of irritatingly have been excluded from the two this afternoon, both of which i'm quite interested in and probably should be in. oh well, big boss wanted a smaller group and i'm literally brand-new in this role so i don't have much to contribute. we're staying in france because there are apparently several conferences going on right now and they couldn't get enough hotel rooms on this side.

i did not sleep well on the flight, the jet lag is coming in waves.

i don't think i'll have time for either of those. but this will not be my last trip to gva, i think being in pakistan will mean at least 1-2x/year here. chamonix looks awesome.

passed the f out last night after dinner, was so tired. this morning didn't have time to do full daily routine so did:

- circuit x 3
-- squat x 50
-- YTW x 10
-- push up x 10

- SL jumps x 5,5

- stretch

I'm amazed by the dedication of the people on the board that you can do anything at all... I'd be eating chocolates and thinking about how I should work out...

hah.

i'd workout then eat a fuckton of chocolates.

And I mean I wouldn't consider Geneva to be a very "Swiss" city to begin with. it's part of the "suisse romandie" the french talking part of switzerland which, regarding the mentality and culture is quite a bit different than the rest of switzerland (actually in a positive way). geneva is even more so a special case as there is the united nations office there and the head office of the red cross and thus is very international. If I'm not mistaken it's one of the or even the most expensive city of the world...

Edit: I'm also very sorry to hear about your loss, didn't read that part.

three of my colleagues were killed in northern afghanistan yesterday.

man that is horrible. :/

meant to mention, i hit a milestone in geneva: full-ROM pistol on each leg with feet flat in sneakers. have always had to at least have my heel elevated a little; my shoes have a 4mm drop. the ankle mobility work is paying off at least in that small way. next stop, barefoot pistols for reps.

ooo nice.

with the new forum stuff i'm coding, we have groups that can be automatically joined, or invite only etc. we'll create some groups like barefoot-pistol-squad etc, and make them invite only. so they will become badge-like. I had only been thinking so far just using them for "teams" (that's what they are called in the code/ui), like; sprinters, jumpers, dunkers, oly weightlifters, powerlifters, runners, cyclers etc.. but after reading this post I remembered also with the calisthenics stuff that you mentioned which exercises you could do, ... nice.. we'll use teams like "badges" also.
