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!

Early for Sunday Morning Workout

    I woke up at 3:30 to take Charlotte to church to catch the van to the DR for a mission’s trip. She always leads these trips as it is one of the loves of her life. I backed into a truck parked across the street. Fortunately, I didn’t damage his truck. It still was a disappointing event. I did 8.3 miles following taking  Char to the airport. I also did the fab 40 and 3x curls/Presses.I hope also to do  a set of core trainer presses/curls. I am so tired right now. God bless you!

Romping on Randall

  This morning my inspiration came from today being Friday. I had a long day yesterday, but thankfully I had a positive mindset upon waking up. I just felt like doing Randall plus 2 x Ryan Avenue for 6.83 miles, the fab 40, 2 x core trainer presses/rows, 1 x GP curls/ presses. My grandson Oliver came down the stand gave me a hug. It was a nice way to start the day. God bless you friends. Happy Friday!

Longwood before a Long Day

 I had a good Bible Study last night. I am looking at a second long day today with parent/teacher conferences ahead. I did the Longwood loop on a fairly cool morning. This loop is very quiet. I did 6.49 miles, the fab forty, and 3 x GP bench presses. Too many little kids around to write now. God bless!

To the Hill

  Thankfully, I have been able to get around and get going in the morning despite the early start times. I have also been able to get to school at a decent time. It has been a busy yet good week with my daughter Kim and her family visiting with us. I hope to bring them to Bible study tonight. This morning I did the 8 x Raynor Hill plus a little extra hill segment for 6.45 miles, the fab 40, 2 x core trainer presses/rows, and 1 x GP curls/presses. It was a cool breezy morning with the temp in the 20’s. Today was a good change of pace. God bless!

Cold Refreshing Tuesday

  I had a fairly decent night’s sleep and things went fairly straight forward for me this morning. Last night, the rain and the wind were ferocious. I had to bring our garbage can into the back yard.This morning I was welcomed by a raccoon who fortunately ran away when I stepped out of the door. The Longwood Loop has been the perfect loop for me so I hit it again. I did 6.5 miles, the fab 40, 1 x weighted bench press, and 2 x GP bench presses. The workout was comfortable. I actually like breezy overcast mornings. I had a good morning of prayer. I find that I need this time in the morning as it gives me the spiritual strength that I need for my family. Have a blessed day friend.
