Another order of these assemblies just hit, just as I'm finishing up this batch, plus other stuff for other customers... I'm buried; i really need to get that hamster wheel integrated into my day. I made headway couple weeks ago, need to build on that. Shopping for a mountain bike. The buddy who got me into road cycling 5-6 years ago has been hitting the logging roads on a 29'er and is raving about how it's a safe (no cars) intense workout that takes less time than my 25-30 mile road rides... also since it's shorter getting wet is much less of an issue plus the bike has fenders, etc. I'm all in, just gotta find my bike. Since I have zero interest in technical single-track a quality hardtail bike from 10-15 years ago would be ideal. 27.5" or 29" wheels. The problem is, there's an almost unbelievable dearth of XL frame quality mountain bikes from that era. It's like tall guys didn't ROLL like that, yo! What can I say, I didn't at that time. For now I am checking CL daily and avoiding going into a bike shop in fear a Shiny Thing will follow me home.

Did upper body yestreday, headed to the gym for lower body today. Sunday I made a big pot of chili, man it was good but I was feeling the effects yesterday at the gym. It's hard to fart quietly when you're exerting yourself.

Did 4 ugly miles on the treadmill last night. Probably longest "run" in 2.5 years or more.

an hour of shoveling snow this morning; strength train this afternoon- squats 5/5/5 75%, bench 5/5/5 75%- a good 3 second hold at the bottom for both, made them much more challenging! pull-ups 3x10, dips 3x30, core

Doing a new thing where I sprint a 1/4 mile before and then between each set of weights every morning. Has me feeling a lot better about short burst cardio.

Hit the weights last night while youngest son was doing basketball practice. Squats, bench, BB rows 5x3 each. Been a long time since I did this too so I'm a little sore today. Plan to work out the kinks tonight on the treadmill.

I did a few weights the other day, one of which was goblet squats. I didn't even have much weight, and I was sore the next day. Going to try to work a day of weights into the rotation.
Otherwise, still swimming, riding the bike occasionally.

It's been quite physical in the shop here recently and I achieved soreness in a few muscle groups on a few separate occassions. So that's cool. I do unfortunately have to take out the gap section of my big lathe to swing one of the parts; I have no idea what it weighs (125 lbs? ) but it's the last time I'm doing it by hand. Tweaked my back. Gonna put one of those overhead trolleys on an I-beam with an electric hoist. The ibeam will run from the lathe to the big workbench I put chucks (also very heavy) and this gap section thing on..... I gotta be smarter; gotta choose my battles. The gap section especially is an exceedingly awkward lift. Seems like, I can put in the hoist setup either before I hork my back up permanently, or afterwards. Cyn's back and foot both got worse, not better, in the weeks after the wreck, so she's started PT on both. Her foot was braced all weird at impact and "something" happened internally. I seem to have come out fine other than a few days of weird mental stuff that must've gotten dredged up from the other wreck (which I can't remember). But, that passed. I'll take it.

sorry to hear about Cyn's lack of recovery- that blows well after a two day hiatus from the stomach flu.... still definitely not a 100% and eating what amounts to baby food :), but got Tiny Elvis for 5 snowy miles on the trails- should have brought my smaller snowshoes, thought the trails might be packed down a little, but must be too cold for folks to get out

I grew up about 30-40 miles from Tomé Hill.... not that I ever heard about it back then mind you. Powerful place, the Land of Enchantment. Sure got my attention. Thanks Mike. She's moving ok and her posture looks ok so, not like she's broken. Just a bit bent up. She's a badass, she'll figure it out.

We did Tome Hill this morning was 1.1 miles total, but 441 feet of climbing in the first .4 miles. Of course we had to hit Blake's lotaburger after and have the "best green chile burger in New Mexico" and a chocolate cherry cordial milkshake afterwards... might have to go climb Tome hill a couple more times after that, lol.
