    Happy Tuesday!!

    Gah, what a few days. Missed two training runs, though one day was a "stand outside all day so the legs got some work". Strength training continues to be inconsistent...need to figure out how to stay on top of that.



    Cardio: 4 mile run. 45 minutes. Have a half-marathon this coming Sunday, so just some easy miles this week.


    Food: been up and down. Have lost a pound of the 3 I gained.

    Like anything else, if you do it for 21 days straight, it can become a habit.

    Happy Sunday!!!

    Cardio: Ran the La Porte Half Marathon, which goes over the Fred Hartman Bridge. Finished the Texas Bridge Series of races. 13.1 miles: 2:38:25 total time. I have a cold, so had to lower expectations on finish time. A new PR.

    Well - took most of last week off as per the directions between mini programmes in NROL. Started Strength 1 today and was quite worried about it. Shouldn't have been.

    Cardio: None

    Strength: Squats pb of 135 for a single rep - doesn't sound like much, but its from the floor as I don't have a squat rack. total of 5 sets. Bulgarian split squats, step ups, back extensions and swiss ball crunches.

    Assessment: Shouldn't have been worried, I figured it out. Not sure how I'm doing the bench presses though.

    cheers all.

    The north is getting pounded by cold and snow. I've read people are dying of heart attacks shoveling snow. And I totally remember how physical it is since I used to live near D.C.
