Hogsfuel: The New IT February 18, 2008

Posted by kimayars General Cardio Digg! this story! Digg! this story. , trackback

This morning I headed over to Sherene’s place for an invigorating workout of spreading hogsfuel. The arena had taken a beating this winter, and Sherene had ordered some materials (crushed gravel & hogsfuel) for some repair work. Unfortunately, those things don’t spread themselves.

Thankfully, Sherene’s neighbor is an all-around great guy and also owns a tractor. He skillfully (and quickly) took care of removing the old hogsfuel in the arena and laid the crushed gravel down. About 30 tons of it, I believe.

But today Sherene and I started putting the hogsfuel in place. By hand. One wheelbarrow at a time. About two-and-a-half hours later, we were only about half-way through the huge mound. I must say, I got a good workout. Especially my back and my obliques. And the arena (or what’s done so far) is gorgeous. I can’t wait to ride in it!
