RE: TGC Fitness Thread - 2024 - General Ceel - 01-06-2024
I've never been much on strength beyond a few simple body weight exercises I can do at home when I remember to. To start the year off though, I've been doing pushups, squats, ect.. and plan to add 1 more rep each day for about as long as I can. Inevitably when my running picks up abandon the strength training altogether, as I always do.

5 miles this morning, 26 for the first 6 days of the year. Very cold out too, probably the coldest its been all season. Now to watch it snow.

No run yesterday as it was still snowing and the roads were not passable. Today I two miles on the snow covered trails. I was tempted to wear my snowshoes, but there had been plenty of foot and fat-tire mountain mike traffic so the trails were pretty well packed out.

Still yet to brave a run, temperature dropped the last couple of days but that's just excuses.

Get out there!
Will have to deal with another morning of snow covered trails today, but then a warm up and rain is coming later in the day. The next day should be pretty muddy out there. of fun!

4 miles this morning. 31 so far for the year.

Just a quick mile on the river walk this morning with my mom. The mountain trails were too muddy and icy after the recent weather. By the river we only had the high winds to deal with.

Been away for work since Tuesday, annoyingly the hotel had a gym but I didn't think to take my stuff, I could've got at least a couple of visits in had I thought about it.

I despise gyms, but sometimes when you're dedicated to a fitness plan they do come in handy.
4 miles this morning. Beautiful day, absurdly muddy and icy trails however. We're expecting the coldest weather so far this season to arrive in a few days and last for most of the week. At least it will freeze out all the mud. On the other hand, the trails always get annoyingly crunchy when ice crystals get into the mud and leaves. Every step collapses under foot.

I think I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm a fairweather runner and cyclist. I'll stick to regular indoor exercises and then ramp up the cardio in a big way in March.
