RE: TGC Fitness Thread - General Ceel - 11-27-2023
Looks like you've got a lot going on. I've always kept things simple. Ideally I'm running lots of miles, but even when less active I might hop on the spin bike daily and then throw in some basic weight bearing exercises. At nearly 42, I've gone through a bit of a drought in recent years after training very hard for over a decade in my late 20's through lake 30's. That was when ultra trail running dominated my life. I miss it, but find it difficult to have the kind of single-minded obsession that was required to build that level of endurance. The 40's are still really good running years though, so I hope get back there again. I have logged a little over 800 miles in 2023, but that's less than half of my output during peak training years.

still clicking off a few miles here, as the weather and motivation allows.

My mileage has been dwindling recently, but I'm looking forward to the new year as an excuse to start over and begin counting them again.

I'm kind of using the run up to Christmas as an excuse to take it easy, under the pretence that post-Christmas I'm going to hit it hard with daily workouts and regular runs/cycles.

That's sort of how I've done things in the past. Usually its a much needed break before getting back into the swing of things after the new year to prepare for spring and summer races. Of course this year the last thing I need is more rest.
