The Half-Da-Man Project

Ran a virtual 8k thanks to tonight!

I think. My normally reliable WiFi did *this* three times during the race!

Made sure of it with my , though.

Looking forward to more virtual - and actual - races this summer!!

Today has been a DAY!! Was not really feeling the treadmill for the first half of my morning workout, but I kicked it into gear for the second half! Ended up sprinting faster and longer than I have in years.

Taught Day One of my test prep class all morning, too! The fastest four hours so far this summer. Fed off of the kids' enthusiasm all day!

Then golf with my 10yo daughter. I played hard, counted every stroke, and...she won, fair and square! Two putted from about 70 feet on the last hole to slam the door.

Lotta steps! I'm about ready to collapse, but this lesson isn't just going to write itself...

Day 3: Nice treadmill workout this morning! Hit a 9:21 first mile even without a whole lot of energy. Sub 9 is just around the corner!

Fruit salad to break the fast and another 15k steps!

Tomorrow marks the 90-day point until my [hurmph hurmph] birthday! What an ideal time for a radical reset.

I'm starting a 90-day raw vegan eating plan with my first meal tomorrow. I've got lots of fruit and veggies lined up, so watch out for photos!

starts in a few short hours...

Two days, two workouts. The morning grind is back in full effect.

Nearly three months left in my 46th year and I'm gonna finish this one STRONG!!

I mean, these goals aren't just gonna reach themselves, know what I mean?

Today I really needed to hear some on my run. "I Stay Away" had me feeling like I was 19 again, hearing for the first time.

This next 90 days is gonna be a lot of fun.

For the first time in my fitness life I ran a 5k with less than six weeks of lead time! No need for any sort of this time around.

I got an email from yesterday announcing a live race this morning from and I couldn't say no.

I mean, especially since I didn't run a single step when we went there in March, hahahaaaa

Loved seeing some of the places we walked and drove by on our spring break trip come up on the display.

And ran a nice pace too! Ran the full 3.11, which is a recent first. Normally I do two or 2.5 and then sprint intervals.

Lesson for me: if you stay ready, you don't have to get ready!
