Dear god -- y`all got it pretty good.

RTIV - Ran till I vomited.
JTTG - Jogged to the gym.
LWUMAE - Lifted weights until my arms exploded.
RBTMAAAABB - Ran back to my apartment and ate a breakfast burito.

I'll have to think of a more challengeing one tonight...

More challenging workout, I hope.

Down 12 lbs in the last 6 weeks. I'm sitting at 203 right now. 28 more to go by April 1, just in time for the spring road races. Fall flew right by. The first training races are 8 weeks away. Lucky for me they're on board flat crit courses, so if I'm 188ish by then, I'm golden.

I checked my training log and I've  managed 850 miles in the last 6 week. Unfortunately I've got zero miles on the Duc in the same time frame.

Good Stuff FatguyRacer!  That is awesome! I did 20 road miles yesterday and 45min spin today. I really need to get some lifting in there.

well...I think I'm rejoining a gym downtown.  (quit when we had daughter and went to equipment in basement).

I've been good, but I have a problem where if I get done in Court at say 3 pm and don't pick my daughter up until 5, I don't have enough time to drive home 45 minutes to workout and then back to get her (right next to the gym).  And I'm burnt from Court so I'm not going to do more work that day.... so I go hide from all the miserable people at my favorite bar (where I'm friends with the owner).

I may browse the DMF by phone, or leaf through some files....

But the couple thousand calories in beer a week aren't helping the plan.


So I am going to try hiding at the gym for a few hours instead.

Pricey, but potentially worth it.

Since I maintain or get slightly fitter each week so far with the current routine (haven't slid backwards yet)...cutting out the bar and adding more workout should be very good.

(I've written and deleted this post for a week now...but owning up to it, even to strangers, gives some motivation.  Got to get mad at myself a little).

Yeah, I'm going to ride my bicycle to the DucShop and then benchpress your bike 10 times.

Office party today, so a bit drunkled to work out.

I totally slacked yesterday and today. Work and buying a house are getting in the way.




I may just start getting up earlier and running-there is no excuse for not finding time.

I have a lifting routine I've been working in 1 or 2x a week. The squats and dead lifts have been helping to strenghten my joints and connective tissues in my knees. Totally worth the extra effort. I can feel the difference on long climbs and short steep one where I have to power out of the saddle.

dont make me post the pic of me drinking beer and riding rollers. 

Well, I didn't make it to the DucShop to bench someones bike, but;

I did get 26 miles on the road bike before it got way too make the beast with two backsing dark (no lights ).
Then lifted for about 30 minutes before I had to get back to the apartment.

(And I think pushing the  MT175 back to my apartment when it died helped too..)
