    After getting out of the hospital I've been on a couple of antibiotics to knock out there intestinal infection. I've just finished those. This has made me much weaker than I thought it would. Now to start rebuilding.

    I was all set to go skate tonight but there was a malfunction at the rink overnight and the ice looks like a giant puddle right now. :(

    @allenpriest....hoping you're finally on the road to recovery.

    I haven't been focused during the last few weeks as I nursed a tender hip and enjoyed some family time at the beach.

    The training effort returns to normal this week. I'm beginning an eight week build to the Lake Placid race in early September. Started with an easy bike session yesterday and will hit the track later today for a ladder workout in fairly humid conditions.

    Its July, Kids...sweat happens....stay cool.

    Hey kids, Allen Priest, I hope you have a speedy recovery. Same for you Djproulx. I had an interesting workout this morning. I took a quickie TRX class, 30 minutes spin and then 45 minute inferno. So many variations and now I am starving to the high hills AGAIN. What can I say; I bore easily. Did someone say cake and wine? Have a great day kids.

    I've been banned from running by my physio guy for "awhile". Seems I have screwed up feet and ankles. He reluctantly agreed to let me skate (because he knows me and knows I won't obey if he says no skating). Sad cat today so I'm going to go cut grass and lay by the pool

    Hi cool kids. Got another run in yesterday. Still battling this brutal cold - we are not on day 8. I just saw the doc and he said it can last up to 6 weeks! Oh lawd. I certainly hope not.

    Attended a funeral today of a friend of mine. It was a tough one. She was such an incredible woman - dearly loved by so many in this community. She certainly has left her mark. She had a rare type of cancer and was gone within 2 years of diagnosis. She wanted to live to see her daughter graduate high school and she did. Her daughter graduated the end of June, and she quietly passed away July 7. :'(

    Anyway, just another reminder that we are not guaranteed a tomorrow, so make the best of today. <3

    Ok so for the past 2 weeks I was supposed to do a mini cut BUT I was incredibly bad and didnt work out and didnt eat properly. In my defense I had to go away for work and then I was sick.

    I'm still not feeling 100% BUT I'm back at it and almost back to my proper weight lol

    Ready to restart recomp next week.

    @sdereski -- I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. It really drives home how short life really is, and how we need to make the most of it. Glad you're taking care of yourself.

    Yesterday was water Zumba and swimming laps. Today, I ran 10 miles with 2 miles at Tempo and a 1 minute recovery in between. Since yesterday was also filled with too many bourbons and bad choice, that hurt! I did it. It wasn't pretty, but I did it.

    @ftmfrank73 Good luck on your half! I'll be running my first half in November! Signing up for a race is VERY motivating!
