Officially in the 60’s!!! Wooohooo!!
Today I stepped on the scale and it read 1-6-7!! 167 lbs……its been a while since I’ve been this light. I’m sure some of it has to be water but the fact of the matter is, I’m in the 60’s now. I’ve got 23 miles of running in so far this week. I’ve got 3 days to reach my goal of 44 for the week so I figure I’ll run 7’s the next 3 days. The more important goal is to get 170 miles in for the month. As far as my ‘B’ priority targets are concerned, I’ve got 3 days to finish 5000 yards of swimming and 130 miles of cycling. From the looks of things, I’ll probably fall short on the cycling goal and that’s only because I’m helping my brother move this weekend. I’ll be able to ride at least 35 today (I got 35 in on Monday) but there’s no way I’m going to have the time required to finish the remaining mileage this weekend. I guess that’s why it’s a ‘B’ priority goal. Anyway, stay tuned for more progress and pics!!

Congrats on the weight loss. I’m impressed by your mileage and workouts — I hope I can get up to 40 mpw running without my Achilles tendon giving out.
Glad you survived the earthquake. I was living in L.A. at the time of the Northridge quake in 94 and I will never forget that. It woke us up and sounded like it was going to bring the whole apartment building crashing down (it didn’t).
Keep up the great workouts and keep us posted on the results.
I appreciate the comment, btw. You are right, it’s long term training that counts, not the one week results. I feel like I’ve finally taken my running, though, to a level that I can build on to achieve my goals. Pretty excited about that.
