lessons of time...

well 2 days after my last post my brother in law passed away and it gave me some perspective. time... because of time, and the lack thereof, we are forced to do things when the time arises. it makes us prioritize and get things done that we used to put off. where am i going with this? i'll get married and have kids "someday". "someday" is becoming more and more asap. i'm a guy so i'm not in a hurry but it's on my mind.

time as it pertains to workouts is great because i HATE the gym, hate the trainer but i love to ride outside. with it being january, then the weather dictates, i ride. NO MATTER WHAT. i gained 2 lbs over the holidays and it seems no matter how much i ride it doesn't want to move. i've finally lost one of those lbs. but it wasn't easy. i think i've lost inches but since i don't measure i can't tell. i am in the best shape i've been in in years. since saturday i have ridden 5 times. 2 back to back 31 milers on the road and 3 off-road mtn bike rides at 11 miles each. all this and i'm still...

weight: 309lbs

survived the holidays...

well, i ate it all and drank up all the egg nog i could and didn't gain any weight. now i'm getting back to the "mission" of getting myself back. i moved the weights and weight bench into the den. i moved the griffen (bike not cat) into the trainer in the den. basically my den looks like a gym :) but hey, i'm not entertaining much these days so it's best to get some use out of it. i started archery back in november because i liked it when i was a kid. so shooting targets in the back yard get me a little upper body workout too. i can't wait for the weather to allow for pre dawn riding again. no REALLY...i can't wait, meaning i have to "do" something else. so that's what i'm doing.

happy new year peeps
