    Hey Kids,

    Welcome Noobs!

    Trying to maintain my training schedule, assuming a June 19th HIM race will happen. Had an indoor bike sufferfest this morning, included a couple twelve minute threshold blocks and some tabata style over/unders inside the 2 hr ride.

    My bike and run fitness is coming along, but the pool closings will make it tough to maintain swim fitness. Dryland swim drills with bands is just not the same. I'll just have to start open water swims a bit earlier than normal this spring. Brrrr....

    Just checking in here. Hope y'all are doing well. Life goes on. Stay strong and keep working out at home. I keep remembering the phrase, "This, too, shall pass."

    Last day of March. I have worked out every day (thank goodness for well-equipped home gym!) except 1, during these “Stay at Home” and social distancing recommendations.

    I am tape-measuring every Thursday. I will update you on that success (or lack thereof) on Thursday!

    My appetite was well-controlled for the first ten days, but crappy the next 5- or 6- days. I began anew, yesterday, to limit my portions, etc.

    I did track my Late Night Snacking. 23 nights I did not LNS and 7 nights I did. Not terrible....considering it usually is about 50/50.

    I am pleased with my March performance - I kept LNS to single-digits!

    And I enter April with this:

    Streak +2

    Yay!!

    Hey kids, hope all is well with you and your loved ones.

    I am navigating my way through workouts at home.

    In closing, take nothing for granted, be grateful always.

    You got that right, caramel!

    Where I live, we have (at least) twelve more weeks of physical-distancing and “stay home” living. I do get my workouts in every day and now that the warm spring has arrived, I can walk around the block a few times (minimum 6 ft apart from any other human who isn’t in my household), too.

    I'm struggling with motivation to workout at home. Just walking into the gym always energizes me for a workout. The recliner - not so much. Obviously, I'm going to have to change that mindset. I will be a puny human when this is over if I don't start working out at home. Thanks for the inspiration, y'all!
