PT Count Down: 154 Days

WOD: (AM) Run / (PM) Run, CrossFit

Ok, I need these last few weeks to fly by.  So I'm going to buckle down and work out, work out, & work out.  I really think that will help me in a couple of ways.  First, it will make my time fly by.  Second, it will help me get some of this weight BACK off.  I have done a horrible job when it comes to my eating and I need to be better.  I should be a busy May.  Let's go!!!  (36 DAYS TO GO!!!)

I'm worn out today but it was some good work outs.  I've passed my two most challenging days for me (Tues & Thurs) because I really don't like lifting weights.  I think that only lifting two days a week is manageable for me.  Also doing two days of CrossFit really isn't bad either.  That leaves Wed & Sat. as strictly run days.  And Sunday is my leisurely walk day.  It seems like a good combination for me right now.  I will try to stick to this regimen for the rest of my time here.  Sounds like a manageable goal for me.  HEAD STRONG!!!  (49 DAYS TO GO!!!)

Another day behind me.  I need to take it one day at a time and focus on getting out the door and working out.  That will help these last few weeks to go by.  Also it will get me going in the right direction once again, fitness wise.  Very sad to hear about the terrorist attack at the Boston marathon.  Some people just want to see the world burn.  Until next time...  (51 DAYS TO GO!!!)

I'm really struggling right now.  As it gets closer to me leaving the more I don't want to be here.  That leads to not wanting to do anything but sit in my room and that leads to eating constantly.  I know it's a mental/motivational issue.  I need to power through it, get out the door, and do something.  I know how I feel when I exercise and I always feel better.  I need June to hurry up and get here!  (52 DAYS TO GO!!!)

The start of another week.  I'm starting to dread weekends.  They go so slow and I am so bored most of the time.  I can only workout so much and watch so many movies!  Ugh!  Need to get more creative to help speed my weekends up.  Maybe throw in some bike rides.  Saturday was a complete wash because it rained the entire day and the gym was closed so no run that day.  Oh well, looking forward to this week and improving.  Now all the junk food is out of my apartment and it's only good choices from here on out.  I'll throw in a few cheats things here and there but mostly clean eating from now on.  I'm off to Suwon tomorrow for an over night trip.  They have treadmills and a decent gym up there so I should be able to stay on track.  Come on June!!!  (59 DAYS TO GO!!!)

Another week in the books.  I spoke with Osan Outbound assignments today and they should start processing my orders.  I will double check on Monday just to make sure.  I will be within 60 days and I should have my orders right now!  Next week should fly by because we have a scheduled trip to Suwon for our quarterly surveillance visit.  I'm hoping that the rest of this month flies by because we have trips planned 3 out of the 4 weeks this month.  Come on June!!!  (62 DAYS TO GO!!!)

Today was rail car day and come to find out my LAST rail car day.  It looks like we are finished with rail cars which makes me happy.  I probably just jinxed myself but supposedly we are finished at Daegu.  It is a beautiful day outside today.  It was a nice afternoon run.  You can tell the weather is nice because the ROKAF (Korean Air Force) are out in droves running on the track.  Oh well, I guess I could share.  Until next time...  (63 DAYS TO GO!!!)

Well the soreness continues and I continue to power through smartly.  Not overdoing it so I hurt myself or wear myself out.  I'm on pace as of now to hit a 40 mile week.  I haven't did that for a while now.  We'll see how the last three days go.  I decided besides my "rest" day Sunday, I needed a mid week "rest" day of sorts.  So on Wednesday's I will just run.  No weights or CrossFit.  We will see how that goes.  The gym is almost moved over to the temporary building and it will be good to have it open again.  The exercise ends this weekend and everyone will go home and I'll have it all to myself again.  Hooray!!!  (64 DAYS TO GO!!!)

Well it's Tuesday which means only running today.  That is good since after my light session of CrossFit my quads are killing me today.  That is unbelieveable since I only did 45 squats and ran a little under 3 extra miles yesterday.  Anyways, I'm paying for it today but it will pass and I will get stronger and more fit.  It will just take a little time.  (65 DAYS TO GO!!!)

6 Months Out

WOD: (AM) Run, Build Ups / (PM) Run, CrossFit

Well here we are again.  Except I am 6 months out from my next PT test and I need another 90.  So today begins that loooooong journey to that goal.  Short term goal is to be below 250 lbs. by the time I come home in June.  That gives me around 66 days to get that goal accomplished.  If I stay focused AND focus on what I'm shoveling into my mouth that should be an easy goal to hit.  I got my first taste of CrossFit today and I'm going to ease into it slowly.  I hope I can fall in love with it because it looks awesome and very challenging.  (66 DAYS TO GO!!!)
