I think Monday gets a bad wrap. Don't get me wrong, I complain as much as the next guy about having to go back to work after a nice little weekend. But really, it's just another day. How is Tuesday any better? In fact, if you think about it, Monday is the closest thing to … Continue reading Week 12 – Day 1: Case of the Mondays (And 283.2)
Project 7×52: Week 11 Recap

Week 11 – Day 7: Turtwig!
Once a month - usually on a Sunday - Pokemon Go has a community day where a certain Pokemon will show up much more often than usual for three hours.

So I made an effort to run today and it wasn't too terrible. In fact, I feel that I started off fairly well and could have run more instead of doing my alternating run/walk method, but I didn't want to push it. By the time I got to mile four or so, my left heel … Continue reading Week 11 – Day 5: Another Run
Week 11 – Day 4: Deadlift

So I decided to do trap bar deadlifts and a couple sets of curls. Everything went well, but the workout was short due to an adjustment I … Continue reading Week 11 – Day 4: Deadlift

Sure, I had my fair share of ankle issues (thanks to breaking my ankle as a teenager) and knee issues (thanks to being old and fat) and achilles issues … Continue reading Week 11 – Day 3: Back to the Elliptical
