Subject: RE: 1 year, 1000 milesSo just checking in. Congrats to everyone that has kept working at what you are doing. Big props to those on/over track. After surgery... I stayed down and piled on pounds. About got back to where I was before I started doing tris. Fat and miserable none the less. So I entered a challenge at Farrel's (kick boxing) My wife has been trying to drag me there for a couple years but there was no point. But she reminded me another challenge was starting and as fat as I was I had a chance at winning. She knows how to push my buttons. 10 weeks, $1000, most improved. I have a good shot. Half way done and 10 pounds lighter. At least my pants fit again. I've never stuck to a diet like this before. And yes, kick boxing is a hoot. I'm back to running, but it isn't my focus. I need 20 miles a week for the rest of the year to hit 500... but I don't see it happening. I'm just running as much as I can being on shift, in a challenge, working at my other job of my wifes business... and moving our other mom in with us.... ya, let that one sink in for a bit.  But just saying hi. ...oh, as far as the back... that is healed 100%. Nerve pain and numbness... that is a whole other discussion. Oh well. |
