Early Start

   I knew that I had to be ready by 7:30 to meet Charlotte after she dropped her car off for maintenance out east. I did manage to get back in plenty of time. I did 7.23 miles, the fabulous 40, and 3 x GP bench presses. I hope to do 2 x hex bar shrugs, and weighted bench presses. I now have a quiet few minutes. I’m grate for quiet time. God bless you!

Reversing Longwood Before the Rain

 I changed plans to walk with my daughter Rebekah after my normal workout. I did 7.16 miles, the fab 40, 2 x core trainer rows/presses , 2 x GP curls/presses, and goblet squats. I also took my daughter Ericka to get two teeth filled. It’s turned muggy now. This week is productive, but lacks rhythm. God bless you my friend!

Easy Going on a Comfortable Summer Morning

 I woke up just enjoying the fact that I can take my time in the summer. I can be more methodical and deliberate. I realize the summer is just a season, but in the whole scheme of things, it serves a purpose. I can save up my energy for the school year and my job. I visited Bekah at work and had a little treat. I did 7.01 miles doing the front way version of my route. I hope to do 3 x weighted bench presses, the fab 40, 3 x the farmers walk, hex bar deadlift and shrugs. I hope to get all the work in. Grateful for the opportunities of the summer!

Reversing Longwood

  It is nice getting back into the habit of the morning walk after a day off. Sometimes I take a day off and sometimes I don’t. Either way , there is a benefit to either course of action. I did 7.05 miles. It was a comfortable morning at a not humid 71 breezy degrees. I did the fab 40 and 3 x GP curls/presses. I hope to do goblet squats, a set of core trainer presses/rows, and some backstep lunges. I am grateful for the training, enough but not too much!

Thursday/Friday: Busy in the Smoke

 Our weather has been affected by forest fires in Canada. There is a stench in the air that smells like the old dumps that existed before landfills. I did the Longwood Scenic Hills loop on Thursday doing 7.18 miles, the fab 40, 3 x farmers walk, weighted bench press, and hex bar deadlift/shrugs. On Friday I did GP bench presses, weighted bench presses, goblet squats, the fab 40, and 7.07 miles doing Longwood in reverse. Today I am having an easy day inside from the rain with Char.

Wednesday Back to the Monday Route Fown Red Maple

  I did 7.12 miles headed in the opposite direction and coming home from Wading River Hollow Road. I did the fab 40, and 1 x core trainer presses and rows, and hope to do more, including goblet squats. I am trying to keep things consistent, enjoyable, and doable. Today is hot, so I am trying not to do much as I do not do well in the heat. Thank you Lord for

Helping me!

Tuesday Longwood in the Opposite Direction

  I headed out towards Wading River Hollow Road and up Cliffwood Lane and down Scenic Hills and up Niewood and finish by DD for 7.00 miles. I hope to do 3 x weighted Bench presses, the fab 40, 3 x farmers walk, and 1 x hex deadlifts and shrugs. Hope to enjoy some inside chores today. God bless you
