Thursday update

Got in a complete workout with HM phase one. My back didn't bother me at all. Made me sweat a lot. Not much room for my set next to my computer desk, but set up right so I don't hit anything. Triad A: barbell benchpress, barbell dead lift, barbell pullover. Triad B: BB squat, BB bent over row, BB lunge. Triad C: Cuban Press, BB seated calf raise, Crunch.

With the exception of all the wings at Quaker Steak and Lube yesterday, I have been eating fairly clean. I have been finishing up a few cookies left over from Christmas, but hey! The Christmas Season isn't over till after New Years Day!

Spent some time at Borders this afternoon, bought Jim Harrison's book "True North" and spent some time reading it with a cup of java there.

We drained our spa this today cleaned and refilled it. It hasn't been drained since Labor Day and was getting cloudy and smelled bad.

Ran across an Americana Music station on the web today, "Whole Wheat Radio" unusual, as they say It's as close to Northern Exposure's funky radio station as you can get. (Yup, there's a moose that hangs around the cabin)

Running Update

(From CoolRunning.com) I haven't updated this in a long time. Then again, I haven't run much in a long time. I did get myself a weight set/barbells at Thanksgiving to work on resistance training. I think I gained about 10 pounds since Thanksgiving. Too much food, and too many sweets always around during this season. Especially at work. Glad the season is behind me, only for this reason. I am off this week and the snow is gone after more then a month of groundcover and ice.

I got up to Howland Twp. Park for a two mile run. It was 34 degrees with light snow and a wind of 17 mph; wind chill of 23 degrees. Grey sky and dreay day. I might be crazy, but I love this kind of day.

The Holidays, and overweight

Christmas morning. I have been eating too many fats, and not good ones either. My weight this moring is up to 212 pounds; and I need to start getting that fat off. I have noticed the past few days, my jeans are fitting tighter. With this weekend being the first since before Thanksgiving it's been much above freezing and no snow, I should get up to the park and go for a 2 mile run.

I bought a set of barbells after Thanksgiving for weight training. Not much room to work with them, they are right next to this computer, but they will do. I have been back to working on the MH Homegrown Muscle series.

With 16 pounds to lose, updates will follow.....
