I Thought that I was faster…

 …but I was just the same. I woke up a couple of minutes earlier this morning. My Bible devotional is shorter on Thursdays, so I thought that I could get ahead. It turns out that I pretty much ended up the same. I did the Randall route—taking several pics along the way. I was feeling a little fatigued and sore from last night’s physical therapy session. Alex is effective, but brutal. His sessions are definitely the most painful and Jimmy a close second. I did 6.34 miles, the fabulous forty, 2 super sets of presses and curls GP, and one super set of core trainer presses and rows. I’m looking forward to next week, but am focusing on the things in front of me. I will start packing this weekend for Maine. Have a blessed day friends! Ps. I enjoy talking to my brother on Thursdays.

Walking Dead

  I have learned through experience and habit that even when you are very tired, if you keep the momentum going, you can turn things around. Once again my alarm woke me up. Once again I was on the late side of on time all the way through. I felt a bit sick in the middle of my workout. My stomach was off. Fortunately, things improved as I carried on. I did the Kastal/Ridge/Raynor/Woodlot figure 8 loop for 6.26 miles, the fabulous 40, 1 set of weight bench presses, and 2 sets of GP bench presses. I made it to work on time. Have a blessed day!

Thinking Ahead

  I slept fairly well and felt rested, even in the early morning hour. It was one of the few times that I was awakened by my watch alarm. I tried to keep things moving in my morning routine. I pretty much was able to stay on the later side of on schedule. I read through my Bible readings and headed to the kitchen to get dressed for my walk. I was able to get the things done that I needed to. I did my usual Longwood Loop of 6.33 miles, the fabulous 40, 2 super sets of GP curls/presses, 1 super set of core bar presses and rows. I had to put more effort into my morning prayers as my mind wanted to stray. I was also thinking, that Lord willing in one week we will be heading to Maine. I have been praying for health for all family so that we can enjoy this long awaited time together. Have a blessed day.

Behind and More Behind

 I woke up on time. After that, things just slowed down for me. Everything took a lot of time to do. My stomach also was a bit off. Everything seemed right, but it didn’t feel right. I did the 2 x Woodlot with an out and back for 6.20 miles, did the fabulous 40, and I did 3 x GP bench presses. I have physical therapy tonight. Feeling like winter. Have a blessed day!

Friday Change Up

 I was hoping to do the Randall Loop this morning, but I was running well behind schedule and settled for the figure 8 llo. I just couldn’t picture myself pulling this off this morning. I took awhile to fall asleep as I was curious about the Patriot’s game and was irritated that my wife had another outing planned at our house. In addition, my right knee was aching. It seemed like normal pain so I didn’t worry myself about it. I did 6.23 miles, the fabulous 40, 2 sets of 15 GP bench presses, and finish it off a super set of core trainer  presses and rows. I am in need of a good cup of coffee! God bless you.!

Humpday that feels like Monday

 I got up at my usual time , but I had some items to take care of in addition to my usual routine. I just kept my focus, and things worked out. I did the Raynor, Kastal Ridge, Woodlot figure eight for 6.24 miles, the fab 40, 1 super sets of GP curls/presses and 1 super set of core trainer presses and rows. It all worked out. I have Bible study tonight. I’m a bit tired, but looking for the Lord to provide. Have a blessed evening friends.

Port Jeff Station With Bekah

   I took advantage of being alone this Saturday and went for a walk on the Greenway trail Port Jefferson to East Setauket. It was my longest walk since my knee surgery. It was raining the first 5 minutes and then it cleared and warmed up. What started as a quiet walk turned into a busier walk with more people enjoying this beautiful fall morning . I did 7.46 miles ending in beautiful conditions. I was so pleased to be enjoying my old walks with my daughter again.
