47 Days until Mid Tour

Took the afternoon off from the gym because I'm kinda worn out.  I did get in my lunch time run but for today that's going to have to be good enough.  We will see how things go tomorrow again.  I'm not too worried about it since at least I got in one short run.  I guess I will appreciate I did something today.

48 Days until Mid Tour

Well after the cold burned off this morning it was actually a very pleasant day outside.  Which is good because we spent a lot of today walking around outside.  December is looking like it will pass by in a blur which will be awesome.  We have a ton of things scheduled to fill our days next month.  I hope it turns out to go by as fast as it looks like it will.  I got in two pretty good workouts today.  I didn't get to finish my cardio/weight session at lunch so after I ran tonight I had to finish my workout.  For some reason I always try my hardest to talk myself out of working out at night.  I guess it's just the inner fatty trying to rebel.  I just need to get my butt out that door and be consistent about it.  So far, so good.

49 Days until Mid Tour

Well I broke into the 40's until I get to go home and spend some quality time with my family.  First things first, I need November to hurry up and get over.  I'm doing my best to stay busy so time will go by as quick as possible.  I am a little frustrated with my eating habits but I have no one to blame but myself.  I eat way too many processed foods.  The down side is I can't keep fresh fruits and veggies in my dorm for longer than 3 days and I don't have access to the commissary (no vehicle) but every other week.  Oh well, I just need to be consistent with my fitness and when I get back home I can tighten up my diet.  There's always a mountain to climb isn't there...

Well it's the start of another week and it's back to the gym to help me get through it.  Early this morning we got our first snow.  I don't know if I'm ready for that yet.  The temperature has really dropped fast over the past month.  I guess I'll have to adapt or freeze!  I guess no more running outside until next spring which is a bummer.  Especially when we only have 3 treadmills in the gym.  Come on June 2013!

52 Days until Mid Tour

Today is a non weight day.  Since I screwed up my schedule this last week, I decided to make today just a cardio today and do better with sticking to my schedule next week.  We will see how that goes.  It was a rough run today so I dialed it back and did what I could do for my hour.  It was definitely better than sitting in my room, on my couch doing nothing.  I'm looking for ways to stay motivated and positive during this holiday season. 

BRING ON JANUARY ALREADY!!!

53 Days until Mid Tour

Well Thanksgiving has come and gone.  I'm glad another major holiday is out of the way for me here at Daegu.  One more major holiday and then shortly after I will be home for mid tour.  I can't wait.  It's hard to keep my self busy and motivated right now.  All I want to do is sit on my couch, watch movies and eat myself into January.  BUT that won't help me with my fitness goals and it won't make my time go by any faster.  As a matter of fact it will probably make time go slower.  Anyways I hit the gym today because I could walk.  I haven't did anything the past two days because I blasted my legs on Leg Day this past Tuesday.  When am I going to learn not to do that.  Probably never!

GO HARD OR GO HOME!!!

56 Days Until Mid-Tour

Well today was the dreaded leg day.  I almost talked myself out of it BUT I followed through.  Not too much going on besides trying to make the gym a habit still.  At least going to the gym each day makes my week fly by.  Until next time...
