Warm and Breezy

 I woke up knowing that this was my last day of the week at school. My plan is to go to Maine next Monday through Friday. There are things to do between now and then, but it’s welcome duties and errands. I haven’t been changing my vacation training that much from my regular training. I am just striving for consistency and am so grateful for it. I did the hill workout today with 8 x Raynor Hill for 6.39 miles, the fab 40, and 3 x GP presses and curls. I will attempt bed goblet squats and core trainer presses/rows if my left trap feels okay. I have been feeling a sense of purpose at school. So I am not minding my work so much right now. There is a good groove to life right now. I hope to come out of vacation with a sense of good family time in Maine and at home. Also, the change of pace is usually refreshing. Thank you Lord for blessing and using me for your purposes.

Saturday-Sunday-Monday

 Saturday- 2 x Ridge/Woodlot for 8.45 miles, the fab 40, 3 x GP curls/presses, 1 x core trainer presses/rows, 1 set quad bar dead lift.

Sunday- Randall and 1 x Ryan for 6.54 miles , 3 x GP bench presses, 1 set of bed goblet squats, , 1 set of weighed bench presses .

Monday- The Longwood Loop for 6.5 miles, the fab 40 , 3 x GP presses and curls. I hope to do 1 x core trainer presses and curls and bed goblet squats later.

Going Through the Motions

  I woke up , drank my 5 hour energy, did my devotions, and eventually made my way out to the kitchen to get dressed for my workout. I had a difficult time staying focused and a difficult time being positive. I struggle when Char is gone for a long period, especially on this all men’s trip. I fully trust her, but I just don’t like it much. I love her and that causes me to support her. I did 6.47 miles, did the fab 40, did 2 sets of GP bench presses, 1 set of weighted presses, 1 set of goblet bed squats. That’s it now, have a blessed weekend!

Rocking on Randall

 It was another lonely start this morning which is both a blessing and a curse. I don’t have to be as careful getting around in the morning. I can turn on lights and listen to Fox News as I get ready after my devotions. I did 6.87 miles on the Randall Loop plus 2 x Ryan Ave., the fabulous 40, 2 x core trainer presses/rows, and 1 x GP curls/presses. I was one minute late for work. Oh well! God bless!

Another nice Morning

 Today I was back at my usual workout time and distance: it was 37 degrees and clear. I decided to do the Longwood Loop the Dunkin Donuts option for 6.51 miles, the fab 40, 3 x GP bench presses, and one set of 20 kettlebell to bed squats. I made it to work in plenty of time. Feeling kind of tired. I apologize for my brief blogs. I have plenty going on, but just not feeling like writing it all down. I hope that your day is blessed!

Cool and Clear

 I was able to get out a little later and go longer this morning since I am taking care of 2 of my granddaughters while my daughter goes to work. I did my old long Longwood/Ridge/Kastal Workout for 9.19 miles, the fab 40, 3 x GP curls/presses , and probably 1 x core training presses/rows. I am easing my way into the day. God bless you!

Rainy Monday Morning

  This is my first full day with Charlotte away on another mission trip which she loves. I woke up before my alarm went off. I could hear the rain outside on this late winter morning. I did the Longwood Loop with the short hill out and back and staying on Smith Road for 6.31 miles, the fabulous 40, and 3 x GP bench presses. I’m a bit off and a bit lonely. There has been a lot of time living at home a lot because church and family take us away from each other. I do miss her and her company. God bless you my friend!
