62 Day Challenge Day 10:…and, fail
Day 10 done, 52 days to go. Reflection: And at the ten day mark, fail. We were prepping a witness today from 11-3 and they ordered in lunch. Fuck it, chicken sandwich. A better man then me would have resisted, I’m sure. But the flesh is weak. Again tomorrow, I guess. Ran home from work…

62 Day Challenge Day 9: Accumulated Fatigue
Day 9 done, 53 days to go. Reflection: Push-ups were tough today, took almost twice as long as usual, run was slow and I was sore from the get go. I think the accumulating fatigue is starting to get to me. Plan is, the body eventually gets used to the load. We’ll see. I’m really…

62 day challenge Day 8: Easy monday
Day 8 done, 54 days to go. Reflection: I’m starting to really like Monday nights. 3 miles, very easy, on the treadmill then push-ups, some light weight lifting, and some stretching. All very easy, all very enjoyable. Reminds me why I love the gym. Eating is going… ok. I find the fruit in the morning…

62 Day Challenge Day 7: One Week Down!
Day 7 done, 58 days to go. Reflection: One week! Damn, what a day. Little dude refused to sleep last night so I missed my expected early morning long ride, meaning I had to squeeze a variety of exercise into nap time and after bedtime. It made for a late night of cycling, but its…

62 Day Challenge Day 5: Burying myself in a hole
Day 4 done, 59 days to go. Reflection: I’m writing this on the Monday because I just couldn’t face sitting down at the computer this weekend to update this project. Honestly, these daily updates are a pain in the ass. Going to keep trying to do it, but there’s a real chance I’ll switch it…

62 Day Challenge: Day 4 Not Everyday Is Interesting
Reflection: Another long day of work and social engagements (PURIM PARTY!), but got the miles in and stuck to the diet. Not everyday is interesting. In fact, most days won’t be. Day 3 done, 60 days to go. Daily Weight 179.2 (weight, why you no move?) Breakfast ½ avocado, 1 cup of strawberries Lunch Hummus…

62 Day Challenge Day 3: Barely squeaking by
This is late. Get used to it. Reflection: At about noon, I realized I was going to be working late, so I started doing loops around the office and after the place started to clear out about 6:30, I started doing push-ups next to my desk. When it was time to leave, at about 8…

62 Day Challenge Day 2: The Health Benefits of a Frozen Cheese Burrito
Reflection: Started the day with five very early miles with Taitdogg, followed by push-ups and mediation. All done before 7 am. At my age, I prefer to get the exercise done early, but my kid has an unpredictable sleep schedule so these days are rare. Still struggling with the morning calories. I started the day…

62 Day Challenge Day 1: Working out the Kinks
Reflection: Day 1 and we’re working out the kinks. Definitely don’t have any idea how much fruit I need to stay full till lunch. Hence the Pret run and poor lunch choice. Exercise was a chill recovery day, mediation was just like everyone says… five minutes is a long time. Below is my first attempt…
