Saturday Day 27

Been a pretty rough week. Had to put the family dog to sleep. Fell behind on the 10000 day challenge a couple of times, rallied and am caught up to 2700 today. Took family to the zoo and did a fair amount of walking today. Thinking about a long run tomorrow.

Saturday Day 20

Friday, day 19: Work was a zoo, dropped the ball again and only knocked out 40 pullups. So 1860 burpees and 1800 pullups (100 behind!)
Rode 18.5 on the bike today, did 140 burpees and 200 pullups (eventually) to take us to 2000 for the day. 1/5th of the way there!

Thursday, day 18

Was busy today. Did get out at lunch and ran 8 miles. This afternoon Tim suggested doing burpee's for time so I knocked them out as hard as I could. Got 18 done the first minute (thought I'd do better there) but was able to get to 100 just shy of 11 minutes. I'll take it. Did an extra 20 for my normal 120 for the day but pullups took a hit. Only did 20 of them today. Tomorrow is my scheduled 'rest' day so I guess I'll just have to suck it up and knock out the other 100 to be back up to speed.

1860 burpees so far, 1760 pullups.
Miles for 2009: 101 miles run.

Weds, day 17

Monday did 132 to catch up and cycled 10 miles or so. Tues did 120 and ran 4 miles. Weds rode 8.5 and knocked out 120. Up to 1740.

Have really ramped up the protein, will share the latest diet in a week if it looks worthwhile. Been sleeping too much, have fallen back on bad habits. Need to work on that.

Miles for 2009: 93

Friday, Day 5. Oh Shrimp.

Yesterday I figured out I could do my pullups on a patio swing chair if I held my legs out in front of me.

Today I discovered how much of an abs workout that entailed. They are screaming from the first set today.

Only got 80 Pullups done, going to owe some.

Thursday Day 4

First 3 days were a challenge but doable. On vacation to day 8 and I don't see a way do to do pullups. Will have to figure something out there or make them up.

A few milestones: As of yesterday I way less than I have in 15 years (since I left the navy), I've been alcohol free for over 90 days, I'm in far better health, I can run farther, cycle farther and do many more pushups/pullups than I ever have before. And yesterday I got my first speeding ticket in 15 years. Guess I got cocky.
