My rolls Thursday felt really good. I had a successful collar choke, arm bar, and triangle against different opponents. I got caught in a weird triangle off of a failed arm bar. Jr. continues to be a super fast and aggressive top player. His closed guard is silly strong, and when he gets on top, I have a lot of trouble getting  him off. I only succeed maybe 10% of the time in escaping his side control/North South. Usually ends in a mount or something equally unpleasant.

Sunday: 2 miles w/ dogs. Planned another 2 miles w/ Sarah.
