End of July... (581.90 total miles)

Well I'm at the end of another month and the rest can't go quick enough until I'm home.  But I'll take the little things and be grateful that July is over with.  It was a pretty good running month for me.  And I guess a pretty good weight loss month for me even though I yo-yo'ed quite a bit.  I look to improve on that next month and get down to business.  I will be starting my count down once again until my PT test.  LET'S GO!!!

New Week...

Well it's the start of a new week and I hit the ground running... and walking.  I'm looking to double up my running this week and hopefully all next month.  I'm looking to put in some crazy mileage next month but I'll save that for the 1st of August post.  You know, for the Air Force being so focused on fitness the cardio room here at Daegu SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS!!!  We have 4 treadmills and 2 of them have been broke since I've been here.  And they always say, "we're working on getting them fixed".  Well guess what, they suck at their jobs because they haven't fixed crap!!  So what did I do instead, I ran/walked the perimeter of the base again in the blazing heat!  What's the best thing that happened today?  My new shoes arrived!  I'm super excited about that.  When I get paid on the 1st I will order my second pair so I should be good for a little while.

The Weekend...

Well it's Saturday and I'm glad it's the weekend.  I went with MSgt's Fry & Bradley to ride the river.  It was a good time but it kicked my butt.  I haven't rode that much in a while and it killed my backside.  We put in 50+ kilometers and it was hot today.  When I got home I checked the temperature and it was 95° but it felt like 103°.  I was wiped out for the rest of the day.  I totally planned on running this evening but that didn't happen.  I look forward to putting in a good week next week.  I'm ready to start August.

Finally back at Daegu...

Well after spending the week down at Gwangju, we are finally back in Daegu.  It's nice to be back even though I still have to live in this dorm.  At least all my things are here so it kind of feels like home.  I got in a couple runs today.  No matter what type of physical exercise I do, I think running is still my favorite.  Starting August 1st, I begin the countdown once again to my PT test month (October).  It's time to get serious about losing some weight again.  JUST PASS...

An Extra Night at Gwangju...

Well we were supposed to head back to Daegu BUT things didn't turn out that way.  We had a lot of work that suddenly came up here so we should be able to head back home tomorrow...maybe?  Anyways, this morning I got my first taste of Cross Fit and that stuff is nasty.  MSgt Fry loves it but no one will do it with him here so I gave it a go.  That stuff is ridiculous and I'm sure we started out with an easy one.  I'm sore from head to toe this week which tells me I need to step up my exercise so more.

Last Night in Gwang Ju...

Well we finished up our work here at Gwang Ju and tomorrow we head back down to Daegu.  It will be nice to get back home for a little while.  We got in a run this morning which was nice.  It's been the first time I've been able to run this week.  This afternoon once we finished up with the tank trucks we headed back to the gym for the second time.  Good times...

Still not running...

Well we were up early filling a tank truck and the day took off from there.  We did however, get to the gym this afternoon for a killer workout.  I like working out with MSgt Fry because he KNOWS working out.  Plus I've started enjoying lifting again.  He keeps trying to get me to Cross Fit with him so I think I'll take him up on his offer and work out with him until my PT test.  The thing I know is he'll work my butt off!!  As long as I'm in the gym then I don't care what work out I'm doing.

WORKOUT:
Chest & Back
