Not strong yet, but workin on it!

[Steve-O-68]

Cooool! A section for strongman and PL logs! Sweet! I stopped updating my other log cuz it was too damned hard to find.

I've started a structured plan... see attachment. I'm in week 3. Looking forward to DLs and bench tonight, and really looking forward to events tomorrow.

[Alcoholiday]

good job. why event training every other week?

[Steve-O-68]

It's too far of a drive to go every week. Costs me over $20 to go to Conan's and over $50 to go to ET's. Gas is just tooooo expensive.

[RacerBill]

Ah, so the log returns here. I'd been meaning to ask you if it was dead or not.

If your log gets lost, just do what I do: post something then use the link in my sig!

same here. It costs me about the same to Chads. I thought Conan's was real close to you?

[Steve-O-68]

Conan's is about 20 miles from my house... but I go from work, so it's closer to 30. My truck is thirsty!

Roland had some info in the "challenge thread" that would create a link that would pop to the last post of the thread

30 miles and it's 20 bucks?! time to get a new car man!

I have a v6 accord. I wish i would have gotten a 4 cylinder b/c mine only gets high 20s, low 30 on the road. I really want a car that gets 50 miles/gallon

[Steve-O-68]

My truck gets 10-12 MPG... Takes around half a tank to get there and back.

[bigDman]

Ow. I sure hope that wasn't in Kansas. Not that a ticket is all that great anywhere.

Nice work. The logs keep going up.

[Alcoholiday]

Nope, I-435 and 23rd St. The suck part is I borrowed my mom's car so that I could save a few bucks on gas... and it ended up costing about 4 times what it would had I just taken my truck.

Another suck part... I left my phone at ET's. Serious suckage cuz now I gotta make another trip up there tonight or tomorrow.

I did. Grip is still an issue... who would have thought that 1 finger would make such a difference?
