Getting Back In Shape One Day At A Time…

Workout – 11/30

Today was the first day in which my car was covered in complete frost while leaving for the gym in the morning.  It is a nice touch and adds to the morning excitement for sure.  Today was a fairly non-exciting and uneventful 4 mile jog with no additional workout items.

Weigh-in 11/29

Workout 11/27

Yesterday I managed to drag my still turkey stuffed body to the gym around midday for a quick workout.  I ran what felt like 4 hard miles on the treadmill.  I do wish that I would start to feel more comfortable with running again so that I can venture outdoors or some of these sessions.

  • About Me

    Just over a year ago I was celebrating the training for and completion of my first marathon and now, a year later, that couldn't feel farther away than it does right now.

    Sure, I have had some injuries and other events that have distracted me from being health focused but to be honest, they are all merely excuses to allow me to focus fully on being lazy.

    To ensure that I stay focused on this effort, I plan to document day to day efforts and events on my way back to a better life.
