I'm setting a goal of getting down to 280lbs by end of January.  Have a  35 days to lose 19lbs. Should be a fun chase.

 

 

Update on weight - just weighed in at 293- 6lbs lost- 13lbs to go and have 24 days left. Laughing

 

Great job!!!

I am trying to lose as well, how are you going about it?

Thought I would throw a picture up here of one of my best beer drinking experiences ever!

Taken in Munich, Germany. Spring of 2007 at the Augustiner Bier Garten.  one picuture is of myself and a fellow we met from California, the other is my girlfriend at the time (now my beautiful wife) taken a long delicious draught of the good stuff.

Evening Y'all.  Im sitting here watching the Tide put a wooping on Notre Dame.  I've gotta go to bed before too long but I hope the Tide puts it out of reach before I turn off the light.

Tomorrow morning I'm gonna be do a unique brick - First, I will swim 800 and then I'm gonna do a Yoga class at the Y.  Should be interesting!  With the game, its gonna be rough getting out of the rack (especially to do yoga) so I'm gonna have to need the power of a warm coors light.  If I don't make it happen - warm coors light for dinner tomorrow.

With that - going to bed. Roll Tide Roll

I think they had it put out of reach within the first 2 minutes of the game!  I thought I would at least get to see a good game, but this is a massacre!

I don't own anything like this and think that's a good idea.  Murthful, find out where to order from? 

First off, great w/o and congrats on the new 5K pr.  Justin, good work in the pool.  21o is a good benchmark for this season moving forward.  Thor, I'd expect nothing less out of you.  To all canadians everywhere, and us hockey fans elsewhere, the NHL is back!

I took a sick day from teaching because my house is sick, daughters and wife have the crud.  We got hit with 6" of new snow.  Heavy wet stuff.  A neighbor of mine snowbirds down in New Mexico and left me the snow blower a few days ago.  Man did that come in handy today.  So I thought I'd pay it forward for the 6 neighbors we're close to in the neighborhood and get rid of their snow on their sidewalks and driveways.  I thought how cool would that be if they got home from work and all that dreadful snow was already cleared.  well a few of them were home, and came running out and throwing $'s at me.  I tried to say it's all good, but they both insisted.  apparently it pays to pay it forward. 

Heading to the gym to get in my s/b brick.  8.5 mile run tomorrow.

Also have to decide what kind of beer to drink with the newfound cash, descisions, desicions.

 

Who do you root for in the NHL Kevin? Might be able to get some smack talk going on here...

I've been following the Blackhawks since '88.  They clinched the cup on my birthday June 9th!  Had a whole house full of people over, and I was the only one in my basement glued to the TV when Kane put it in on Philly in OT! 

Who do you got Justin?

This is sick Man!  I was at the big fest tent in Munich in '99.  What a wonderful experience.  I own a few of those mugs.  Amazing watching the waitresses carry about 6 of them in each hand.

firefighter - 2013-01-07 5:33 PM What's the minimum amount of time to put in on the bike to make an effective brick set?  I'm asking because I'm so pressed for time that I'll normally put in about 10 miles or so and then run a 5k or 10k if possible.  Is this enough to make a difference or should I devote that entire time to one leg...I'm kind of lost.

I would go with long bike/short run. I think the big thing is to get used to hopping off a bike and start running...just a thought, what are your tri race distances this year? Either way,  a brick helps with the bike/run transition that you will be facing. I find after the first mile or two, it is all good.

Managed to drag my butt out of bed for spin class this morning...lousy sleep last night, could be an 8:30 bedtime tonight. If I can get my $hit together, I am going to go for a swim tonite while my daughter is in swim club. Need to start nailing some double workout days if I am going to hit the 30 in 31.

Have a great day everyone!

It's confirmed!  Go Leafs Go!

I am going to make a prediction here that the leafs will have far less losses this year... it will probably be their best season since the last lockout.

(if you cant laugh at yourself.....)

 

That was a great game Kevin! the Hawks are fun to watch for sure!

The threat of drinking the warm coors light (a bottle that has sat in the sun since July) helped me get out of bed and get in my swim and yoga session this morning.  To be honest, I thought about bailing from the yoga session when I realized that not only was I the only male in the room but I was the youngest by a good 20 years.  Nothing like a room full of cougers to get you motivated.

Run tonight.  Gonna crush the 30/31.

Go Leafs Go!New bike with inside trainer today. Getting used to aero position not so fun. A lot more stress on my shoulders than I expected. Trying to ease into it and switch hand positions a little. I also have a seat with the two knobs on the end and a space in between to protect the bits and pieces. That is also taking a bit to get used to.Keep going on the goals!

So after the dust settles at the end of the month, do bragging rights go to the individual with the most workouts? Distance and Workouts?...

I thought everyone here would appreciate my birthday present from my wife:

 

First off.... I want one, we should see if we can make a mass order and get a deal on them! Seriously...who wants in?

Second....Sick gym day man... Killer lift, sweet run! ...firing on all cylinders is right!!

Third... Wine is great, I think all alcohol is great really but here are some suggestions... A decent Cabernet Sauvignon with steak med. rare...or a nice slow cooker beef stew in the winter.

A nice Gewurztraminer with some spicy humus and pita bread!

( tried to colour code there, but the white kinda got lost in the background...thus the blue)


But really I find wine to be all about the food pairings, maybe that is me being snobby.. I dont know...

Wine is about food and wine to me too!  My favorite...warm summer day, on the porch, butter chardonay with some cheese, grapes and crackers!  Come on summer!  Winter?  Anything deep red and warm with lamb or steak!

I would be worried that it would make you sick, if not for all the preservatives and crap that goes into Coors light!!!
