Just trying to get back to it. Ran a 1/2 marathon in early Nov. Well ran and walked a 1/2 marathon. Chugging a PBR between miles 9 and 10 didn't give me the boost I was hoping for. This years goal is to just be a better example for my two boys. First run this morning since in almost 2 months. Hoping to get some lungs back before heading to NM in Feb.

The PBR mid-race refuel! Funny! Walked 3 miles yesterday. I'm on a yo-yo with the Achilles at this point. Inactivity makes it feel really good. Activity makes it sore; however it's a type of sore that I can work with (because it's no longer shutting down my calf), and activity is, well, gonna happen. So I'm yo-yo'ing between feeling pretty normal and limping a bit but it's progress.
The CENTER will hold.

I used to do a mountain race- at the halfway point (after a $hit ton of climbing) they had an aid station, along w/ water, snacks, etc they had a little stand w/ margaritas- if you drank one they put a lei around your neck; just the thought made me gag- one time I saw a guy that had three around his neck- WTF? to the gym today deadlifts 5/3/1+/10 overhead press 5/3/1+/10 lunges 3x30 yds chin-ups 3x12 core

5 miles on the trails w/ Tiny E; made me laugh- he likes to roll in the snow when we get started out, he was rolling on the downside of the trail and then took about an unexpected 10 foot tumble down the hill

Finally getting back at it. Hoping 2020 goes better than 2019. Short run on treadmill last week, short hike over the weekend, and 30min on bike trainer this morning after stretching and pushups. Gonna keep it light for a week or two then increase.

I'm not as hard core as you fellas but I'm walking 5 miles a day at 3mph. Three miles of it at 5% with a 45 pound weight vest. Also 100 curls on each arm with a 10 pound weight. At 60 I don't want to screw up anything by trying to lift too much. Just want to keep the arm strength I have. I cut out refined sugar and have greatly reduced carb intake.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

No doubt. 1Feb is when the increase really is noticeable to me. We are starting to get to the steep part of the increase, at just over 3 min per day.
