## Today's plan (Sun before TRI week)
- 🛌 **Body recovery is job #1** — sleep-in OK, no lift, walk if anything
- 📦 Pack + prep for TRI Mon-Thu (short week — flight Thu 7/16 night to LA)
- 🌟 Sun evening 1hr out — quiet version (walk, coffee, call Izzy) — not Sat energy
- 🎪 **Text a friend about Tue evening hike** (Brandon Week 5 HW seed)
