we did for one event, but i would have preferred the whole thing been outside as hot and humid as it was in the gym, no airflow and a bunch of people in there... after an event I would run out of the building and just roll around on the wet pavement trying to recover!

The humidity has been stupid lately. Even sucks for my 5am class. Can't imagine how it is in the evenings.

Again, congrats!

Cardio today, stair machine and bike, 800 calories in 59 minutes. Been on vacation at sea level for the last 10 days so it was good to get back in the gym.

I bet! Vacations are brutal.

32 miles on a bike, solid ride. Think intervals.

Vacations are indeed brutal. What with the grilled tuna, crab cakes, oysters, shrimp, country ham (got a tour of a traditional smokehouse in Smithfield VA, photo below) pecan pie, ice cream and such, if it hadn't been for the kayaking, bike-riding, SUP-ing, and swimming in the surf I'd have gained 6 or 8 pounds.

With ya. The week I spent relaxing and eating on Lake Michigan is fitness karma I'm still paying back. The only positive was the beach walks. They did give my lower legs and feet a workout they hadn't seen in a while... deep sand, etc.

Heading out in a few hours on an overnighter with some guys from work. It'll be about 6 miles to the spot they want to camp. I have 2 trail cams about 5 & 7 miles (in the same direction) away from their camp site. I think I'm going to drop my camp stuff and go swap SD cards & batteries. I'll see if I still have it in me.

5 mile walk this morning

Incline benchpress
135x10x10

I've been plugging away at ironing the last bit of hillbilly-ness out of the old part of our house... replaced a perfectly good metal porch roof because it was the wrong color to match our new metal roof, and then re-everything'd (insulation, sheathing, siding) that gable end of the house itself, up above said metal roof.

Anyway-- there's been a solid couple of workouts worth of lifting and so on there. Lots of up and down ladders with plywood, etc.

I made it. 22.3 miles total for the day, around 7 miles side hilling without a trail, a bit over 5600' total elevation gain and arriving back at camp after 10:00 PM. I was a whipped puppy.

Cardio today, 820 in 60.

Commando?

That's gettin' it done.

Are you kidding me?? I have to wear baggy sweats and a hoody so the women don't know who I am. Otherwise, chaos.

Thanks but I should be doing more hikes like the one you just did.

That's gettin' it done!
