I try to keep my entire week as a whole (counted Monday to Sunday) on target, rather than focus on individual days. Longer runs on the weekend allow me a little more flexibility as well. It's all cumulative.

Greek yogurt and chocolate covered pretzels 😋 EDIT: Wait, I bought plane tickets for a September vacation after that. How did I forget that?

Thank you!! :)

Always up for more friends! About to start a new 6-week training cycle for a race in August.

Always happy to support people on this journey. Add me!

Happy Hump Day!

Always happy to support others, feel free to add me! After a record distance of running in May (180 miles), June is gonna need to be the month I get back to the gym to lift weights more... (while also still running a ton...)

Working, which is to say, procrastinating, which is to say, posting on here.

Monday morning at the office...

Welcome!

In my office in Times Square. At this hour, the sunlight is brighter than the neon lights through the window...

Always happy to add more friends!

Getting ready for the last hour of work on a Friday...

My office laser arrived... Fine, it's just an LED.

Incidentally, my last fridge died about a month ago, so this question would have had a lot more random…

I feel like the lower end models are predominantly marketed for running, while the higher end stuff (which have higher numbers, like the 945) is marketed to triathletes. But they can all handle walking, cycling, elliptical, strength training, yoga, generic cardio, etc. I don't do much hiking because I live in New York…

I use a Garmin Forerunner 245. It's just advanced enough for my needs (as a 35-40 mile/week runner) without breaking the bank. After 18 months, I did have to get the band keeper replaced, but Garmin did that for free through customer service. I also had a hard time with the heart rate readings during dry winter runs (this…

I like to think this shirt is like one of those magic eye pictures...

Welcome! I hear you on impulse control ... I'll buy a snack meant to last the whole week and eat the whole thing in one sitting, especially, like, chocolate covered almonds or something... Best of luck to you! :)

Hello all. Back at it after a 3-month break from active logging. After taking some stock in what was going well and what wasn't, I've learned that my exercise/running plan has been strong, but where I most need to be held accountable is my dietary choices. So, I'm back and I'm ready to focus on my weaknesses. Obviously,…

After this morning's 4-mile run.

That mixed feeling when it's Friday, but also, I have a headache...

Sweater weather.

After yesterday's 8 mile run.
