looking for something very challenging? give this a go; got 15 (only half way) the first time I tried it, 17 yesterday- lifting today so will skip it, will try tomorrow and continue until I can do the whole damn thing!
Ran a half mile in 4:30, then did 30 min on the elliptical, tried to keep my watts over 187.
I purchased the 12wk rucking program performance first, I will start it in June to peak in the middle of September. It appears to be a well rounded program.
Got a 6.6 mile run in today in 58:07. 10k was in 54:31. Good start to this weeks mileage. Warden that push-up challenge looks tough. I’ll have to try it out!

Not a bad week with a 6.6 mile run Sunday to start the week. With a body weight workout with some sprints, a kettlebell workout, and a 3.7 mile run. Unfortunately this next week will have to include some treadmill runs. Hate treadmills. If it is cold and the rain here in N. AR stops for a little while I’ll bundle up and go run. Have a great weekend all!

Great thread, gents! You fellas are tough! At 35 with a 2 year old and infant plus work I have plenty of excuses to miss a day. That said, my wife bought one of those fancy peleton bikes last year and it’s been awesome. I was reluctant of the idea, but now I’m the primary user. I am a natural when it comes to distance running, but the bike is more physically challenging for me and easier on the knees and back.
I’m riding that 3-5x a week and am doing body weight exercises. Push-ups, pull-ups, lunges and squats... I do have weights here at home but was having more luck with them before the second kiddo came along.
After a couple of MT hunting trips the past couple of years I’m really trying to work up the nerve to try to convince my wife to leave Texas. It’s just too damn crowded, hot and blah(scenery and topography) around here. Not only that, the hard part would be leaving the grandparents.
Anybody know of any good, non-government forestry jobs in MT/WY/ID?
pretty decent week for me; 36 miles on the trails- 9 miles on snowshoes on Friday- got both of my strength training sessions in as well; still very much on track for 2022 miles
Been riding my Airdyne bike quite a bit the last month or so. First day it was delivered, I started the Covid Wuhan death plague thing. So had it about a week or so before I ever put it together.
So got in about 80 miles on it in 6 work outs the last week of January. Give this a lot of credit for getting over the Wuhan Flu.
166 miles in 10 workouts for far for February.

I would suggest you NOT do that unless for some reason you had to look for a job.
ENJOY what you have. You don't realize how LUCKY you are to live near family AND have a decent job. It doesn't last for ever and you can MOVE any time.

I broke the 200 mile mark yesterday. Left shoulder is still tender from a fall in November, but I am starting to look hard at the bowflex. I need more flexibility and strength training.
Plus Mountain Tough 22 on Monday, Kettlebell CrossFit on Wednesday and body weight CrossFit today. The weather this week will require me to be creative with the schedule to get my runs in.
Take care all.

42 miles for the week (324 for the year), including a 10 mile snowshoe in the Elkhorn Mountains. Got both of my street training workouts in, unlike the previous week while I was out of town.
It looks like spring is creeping up towards Montana, love your pictures. My target is to hit 200 annual miles before the end of the month, still in AZ the temps have not gotten to hot yet.
