My regimen went to total [bleep] after Colorado.
I didn't even get to enjoy the theoretical buzz of being able to translate the two weeks at 10,000 feet back to 700 ASL.
I need to cut back on my obligations so I can go back to the thrice weekly runs, and alternating pack hike at home....

I "lost" a couple steps as well due to work/staffing. I decided that others need to pick up some slack and got back into the groove in December.
Now I just need more snow......

4 mile snowshoe run with about 300' of elevation gain. I held my pace just shy of 9:50/mi.
Now I need to clear my driveway before work......
George That is kick-azz. What snowshoes?

Dion 121s.....I lost some time due to schit snow conditions in the wooded sections. When it gets "boney" I'm picky about footing. No need to shred equipment just to hold a pace.

No snow here, but I managed a run last weekend. The course had slightly more elevation gain and loss (like 10,000 ft over the course) and I wasn't able to hold a 9:50 pace. But my New Year's resolution is to get better so I suppose I need room to improve, right? And you get a buckle when you finish.....

Outstanding!
Once I get through snowshoe season, it's on to "Mountain Goat" training. I'd like to run the series this year if work permits.

Deadlifted this morning and eased back into squats. Also decided today that I'm done bulking and began cutting today. I need to drop 10 lbs a month for three months.
What is this snow you speak of? : D

Scenery was below average.
Gym time was in the AM. Rower is at home and done in the evening.

I feel like I've been hit by a bus after 5 days of the P90x3. The pull ups really got me good as well as just about everything else. Still have tomorrow too before a rest day. Digging the 30 minutes a day though..

Hiked up a good steep trail yesterday. Decided to run back down the trail as some dude ran past me at a good clip. I think I found a few new muscles. Wow am I sore. Might have to do that again once I can walk straight again.

Yesterday:
30 minutes on the gym bike. Speed intervals combined with slow resistance. Weights. Chest and legs. 30 minutes easy row at home
Today.
Gym bike same as yesterday. Weights: Arms, back and light legs.
Addition: young buck was doing dead lifts. Finished a set and started waking crooked. Finally passed out and went to the floor. Came around in about 20 minutes.

Pointer is hard on the equipment, in that all the bars in his gym end up bent. Ours are all still straight, so I hope he doesn't show up.

Are you saying pointer doesn't like straight bars?

Today I started off benchpressing with a slight incline which I find most comfortable. I worked sets beginning with 110# and finished with one 300# rep. I moved to deadlifts then. Started at 215# and ended at 365#. I finished my day with squats; 125x10.

Still rolling with the P90x3. Did a pile of pushups/pull ups this morning.
