    I received the news today that I got the maintenance position I applied for, so no more sedintary operator job! Also, Monday through Friday, 7am to 3:30 instead of rotating shifts and six days per week. This operations job is why I packed on 45lbs. Here’s to less stress, physically working, and no more 16 hour days!

    Someone had the heat at 80 today in the FD gym while I was running. There’s no need for that.

    Good luck man!

    Nice job. That's quite the elevation gain for a 5 mile hike.

    I've got a section hike planned for the AT upcoming. I'm planning ~67 miles in 3 days with ~18K feet of ascent and 21k feet of descent...with a much lighter pack.

    Why did you let your lazy butt get into the kind of condition you think you need to do all the kind of off the wall stuff? Do some real work like SOTA said for a change. Swinging golf clubs is not exercise. I am heavier now than I have ever been at about 230 or less. At 77 I deserve a little extra and still do my share of work around the place till about 3 when it gets real hot. Not dumb enough to over do it and get over heated. So you do your running, cutting time and that stuff and think about why your "having" to do it.

    Strong work fellas. Good to see so many guys getting after it.

    I have a beach vacation coming up so I dropped the calories back down to around 2200 and have been doing a little more cardio. Weight training program is staying the same.
    Stay after it.

    Ran 3 miles yesterday, that makes 11 over the last 5 days all with low carb diet (That’s probably a record for me even when I was skinny before).

    I’m going to a crawfish boil tonight tonight though so I’ll probably partake in some not so good food and beer. Cheat day.

    Strong, keep it up Caleb. Last night was a cheat, but damn that pizza tasted good.

    I was listening to Cody Rich's podcast this morning on my morning walk. If you have seen the mtntough workouts, take a look at the backpack and 22s workouts on http://www.mtntough.com for a serious challenge (nice mix of strength, endurance and speed)...maybe a new set of goals, though it seems to take longer to hit the next set of goals the older I get.

    I have no self control on the weekends in regards to my diet. Sunny summer Saturdays call for ample amounts of light beers being in my diet. I also ate like a pig all weekend.
