4.5 mile hike with some good climbs. First one! Achilles felt fine. I think I mentioned a cold a couple weeks ago. It turned out to be flu. It mopped the floor with me, I have not been that sick in decades. Just now resurfacing into the world. I guess the silver lining is the Achilles got a couple weeks of major rest- might as well have been in a walking boot. Probably lost a few pounds as well

Finished up 3 straight weeks of 3 days bike, 2 days inclined treadmill with boots/pack so I guess I'm back at it. Feels pretty good but need to clean up diet and sleep. Probably start some strength stuff mixed in this week.

Back on the wagon. Leg day, and some moderate level cardiovascular training after.

My wife would run circles around him.... It's hilariously funny watching guys on his safe space thread tiptoe around his stupid ailment updates cause they don't want to say what they're thinking....

If I'm 80 and still doing this, no I won't.
I'll be down at the gym, flexing my abs and checking out the 60 year-old gals, like Harry.
JeffO is that really you posting that crap on the Hunter's campfire?

Arrived home last night at 4am from a Fla shooting trip. 16 hours to the Burgh from Palm City, Fla. Does a sore azz count for anything?
Smoke, you should head down that way. Your abs will be getting an all day flex. From the coffee shop in the AM till your evening shuffle board game. The young ones at least will giggle at you walking around odd. However, a target rich environment in your area of operations. Have to admit there are some winners residing there in that age class. Weighted leg lifts should help in your walking around in a more natural posture. Just do it.
Heading to the gym. Need to loosen up the glutes. They are a little tight from all the isometrics I did down there.
