Exactly my point, so it's not worth chasing for closure. It's a dead duck
Yeah, it's basically over. There's a couple of factors complicating things, making me want a straight answer, because, well, as of right now, just letting it dissolve it isn't going to work.

That could be a selling point for a gym.

Anyway, I was going to say, I could think of far more creepy ways to approach people than facebook. I've developed a really great relationship with a guy I only knew marginally in high school. (he's gay) At least it gives her some sense of control, she can get to know you better, and yoiu know your slick pickup lines didn't work if she "unfriends" you......
True, and the message can always be ignored...

With my brain, it definitely is a good thing.

Your blog is awesomely funny. I'd comment on the blog itself, but apparently I have to have my own blog, or sell my soul to Google to do so. Seriously funny stuff!

Thanks. I need to troll the internetz to find some more stuff to update. Maybe I can do something on I, BODYBUILDER.
But then the bros would want a shirtless picture and stats.
Creeps.

(ok kidding. Can you see me as a parent right now? Thought so.)
(and no, no "it's cause you haven't done it!" jokes or their variations.)
HOLY COW! I just had a heart attack!
(That was actually what I was worried about when I posted that, so yeah, you got me for a good 15 seconds.) Well, anyway, we know from your experiences with Toby that you'd do great if you had any runaway kids...

No, nothing that serious, thankfully.

Checking out the forum posts on that article should give you enough material for several blog posts. That's what caused T-nation to jump the shark for me.....but, of course I haven't been around as long.

Eh, I think that T-Nation has *some* useful information hidden in their advertisements. It's just how you accept and separate that useful information makes you either a bro or someone with a brain.
But I, BODYBUILDER--no matter what the program ends up being--is so unintentionally hilarious that it deserves *some* scorn.

I'm still working out, and have one more workout to go in this phase. I'm dragging. I am looking forward to the week off.
And I'm officially in the Bourbon Chase. Five weeks to go, so I need to step up the running. My race legs aren't too terrible, so if I can get up to about 20 miles in that last training week before I taper a bit, I'll be ok.

Ran 3.5 miles on Sunday and went for 25 minutes on the bonecrusher yesterday in an attempt to try to keep my legs fresh and help my aerobic capacity--which needs all the help it can get at this point. We'll see how the little experiment goes.
Also did a bunch of mobility/prehab work yesterday as well. Hopefully I can go for a 3-4 mile run today.
And life confuses me. I wish I knew what the fuck I was doing or where the fuck I was going. Ah well, better enjoy the muddled mess now, right?

Got knocked on my ass Tuesday by that sinus infection shit that's been going around (the whole house has it, it's awesome) but ended up running 2.86 miles Wednesday and I felt like I was going to die.
I'd love to do the 50/100 workout but I don't know if I'll have the time, the calories or the mental aptitude.
Hopefully I can go 3.5 miles or longer tomorrow before work. Did something to the lower part of my left oblique (almost in the lower back region) as it's sore to the point that it's painful.
Time for bed, assuming I'm not dumb enough to stay awake for the rest of this football game.

Back into the gym today. Going to do my own thing for a week or so until I can find something. But at the same time, I'm wondering if I need to focus on my race training for the next three weeks instead of in the weight room.
Tuesday September 8
Superset 1
Bulgarian Split Squats
3x5 @ 50 (EH)
Face Pulls
3x10 @ 60
Superset 2
DB Bench Press
3x5 @ 85 (EH)
Chinups
3x5
Superset 3
Planks
2x40
EZ Bar Curls
2x8 @ 75
Dips
2x7
Nothing too fancy, though I did do something to my left achilles' during the split squats. My ankle gave out--basically rolled inside--while on the bench each set. And now my achilles' is sore. I've never had problems with having my feet on the bench before, so I have no idea what's up. I'll see how it feels in the morning.
Ran a mile after the workout too. Had planned to go longer, but had absolutely no pop. I haven't been running directly after my workouts, so I didn't realize exactly how much it was going to zap me. Four miles tomorrow, with the # of hills depending on the route. I'll probably pansy out and go with a flat run. (I have a myriad of options in the surrounding neighborhoods)

It's not my favorite thing to do, but it's with friends and it's a good way to challenge myself. I ran a 5k this summer without training, but I needed to train for this.
(Bought my airfare today. $125 roundtrip. Fucking fantastic)

Even though the Chiefs are horrid and can't generate a pass rush, it's been a pretty good weekend. Can't complain too much. Got what I needed to get done taken care of yesterday and took Toby for a playdate.

Are you training to lose weight at the moment? Or just training?
More so to keep myself occupied until the race in October. I'd love to lose some weight, and I sloooooowly am, I just can't focus on it with 3 weight training and 3 running sessions a week.
And I've drank more beer in 2009 than I had all of college. But as those that have known me for a while can attest, that's not nearly as strong a statement as it looks.

What is your goal?
To have life stop pooping on me and make it to the BC pain free. After it's over, I'll probably take a few days off, reassess where I want to go from there training-wise, and go after it.

I read your journal. It's good. Even with the short sentences.
Ha. Thanks. Actually, when I write (and I found something about the 06 Summit that I'll probably post tonight or tomorrow) I have a tendency to use very long sentences and lots of commas. I guess it has something to do with my tendency to now be a little more aloof than I used to on the internet. It's not too hard to figure out who I am, and given that my stuff is out there in the public realm (and for the short term anyway, it's my career path) I figure I shouldn't reveal too much.
And, more importantly, I can get away with being an asshole much better.

Great workout. Did a few intervals afterwards even though I once again felt like I had no explosiveness. I'll probably run 2-3 miles tonight, as we're less than four weeks from the big race. Yikes.

Of course, I have the right to change the last part of that if I feel horrible when I wake up, but I'm much more optimistic about how I'll do after today's run. I kept telling myself to keep a comfortable pace and once I got past the "what the fuck are you thinking?" question that always crops up around the end of the first mile it was smooth sailing from there.

Loookit here. Someone in that crazy-ass town of yours is actually using all those beautiful running trails for something other than just looking at them. Nice red in the gym too btw.

I run north of my house which is a subdivision that feels like a little town on a golf course or something. 70% of the houses are mansions on at least 3/4 of an acre and there's probably thousands of trees that seclude the subdivision from the surrounding streets.
It then transitions to a neighborhood that are a bunch of smaller, older houses. Many of them are nice, but then there's a pocket that's absolute trash. Not kept up at all, some are boarded up, shit all over the front yard, etc. It's a bizarre conglomeration of neighborhoods all within about a square mile.
(I really wish that I could use all of the trails that the city has, but all the sweet ones down near the Plaza are a good 20-25 minutes away from where I live. The closest thing I have to a trail is the park next door to my neighborhood where all the gay guys go to hook up. I think I'd be a moving target running over there shirtless...

Had to put three exercises in the first superset and switch the rows because the smith machine was being used by some toolbags. Ended up having a better workout anyway.

Nah, they'd be blinded by the whiteness.
(And yes, I'm aware that I'm an even whiter shade of pale.)
