July 14th. Update
So it has been 17 days since I worked out!!!! I had made all these plans to be better about things after the wedding and once my schedule got set at work, but that all went out the window. Things have been very hectic at work, and I get done at different times every night depending on who’s working, so its not always easy to plan. I am afraid to take progress pics or do measurements or weigh myself haha. I have still been doing a good amount of running for marathon training, and have been eating decently and taking my supplements, so Im not a huge fatass or anything, but I have taken a step or two backwards I think. So I need to revise my workout regimen and reschedule how Im gonna do all of this so that I have some more motivation to go. Its hard sometimes, especially since we just moved here and there is so much to do at night that I wanna go out and have fun with Heather and be involved in all of the action, so I tell myself that I will just go work out in the morning, but then morning comes and I end up sleeping in too late!!! I need to find a happy medium and stick to it, so thats what I am gonna do. Tomorrow, I am working out, and I am running. Period. In the morning early, I am planning on going to South Point to read the racing form and make picks for the last day of races at Hollywood Park, and after that I am either going running or going to the gym. If I wake up early enough, I can get to the casino early and have enough time to go to the gym AND do my running! That would be great, but we will see if that actually happens. I am planning on doing my back and triceps tomorrow. I may do a few weeks of heavy and hard high volume training and skip the doggcrapp rest pause stuff for a few weeks or just try something new altogether. I think that once I go in for 2 or 3 days, I will be completely amped up to stay in and go everyday, I just need to get started again. So my tentative plan for tomorrow will be to wake up around 7am, go to the casino and maybe do breakfast and have some eggs and oatmeal there. Afterwards, I can read the racing form and make my picks, and if I am home by 9, I can be at the gym by 930, lift until 1045, and run on the treadmill so that I dont hafta run later on outside in the heat. That would give me about 2 hours to run if I really wanted to put in the time and try to get my 14 miles or so in. If it doesnt work out that way, then I will try to run in the morning and lift at night when the gym will be more empty after work. I will update tomorrow after I lift.

Did you end up doing any of this? Did you do the marathon training without me??
