Since February went so well I figured I would keep up, at least for a while, doing monthly challenges to myself. I’ll still keep on with the fitness but not be quite as strict with myself as I was last month. For March I’m going to focus on reading and personal organization / productivity. RecentlyContinue reading “March Personal Challenge”

Fitbit Observations
So far I’ve been wearing my Fitbit for almost three weeks and have come up with a few interesting observations about it. For the most part I really enjoy tracking everything and having a record, but at the same time there have been parts which have been depressing. My water intake is really good, IContinue reading “Fitbit Observations”
Fitbit vs Runkeeper
For the past few days when I’m out running I’ve been tracking my runs with both Runkeeper and my new Fitbit Surge. Even if I was extremely happy with Fitbit’s tracking I would still be doubling up with Runkeeper at least until the end of the year when my goal is reached. The first dayContinue reading “Fitbit vs Runkeeper”
New Running Goal
It was in mid July when I guess I started running again this year after taking a long detrimental break. After the 10K race for the Valley Harvest Marathon in October of last year I basically stopped running. Getting started again was hard but it’s come along well. This year after the race I decidedContinue reading “New Running Goal”
Week Eight Summary
The end has come of my eight week session. The results weren’t as good as I wanted when it came to the weight loss part, but I can live with the results. In mid July I started at 225lbs, which is very disappointing because last summer I was basically where I wanted to be forContinue reading “Week Eight Summary”
Week Seven Summary
This past week has been birthday central for us. We’ve celebrated so many birthday’s it’s crazy. I believe there has been 7 birthday celebrations I’ve been a part of. Some of those are duplicates for people where we had a small get together and then an actual party, but it still caused me to giveContinue reading “Week Seven Summary”
Needed a Win
I’ve been struggling this week and today I just needed a win. About a month ago I set a goal on Runkeeper to be able to run 10k again by October 1st. That would give me almost two weeks to better my time. Today was my planned day to go for a long run andContinue reading “Needed a Win”
Week Three Summary
This week I maid much closer attention to how much food I was eating. Even though I’ve been eating and snacking on pretty good and healthy food I’m pretty sure I was still eating to much of it. Meals were OK but I was eating a lot of fruit especially in between meals as snacks.Continue reading “Week Three Summary”
Week Two Summary
It is a good thing that I started out with a good week because this past week didn’t see the results I was hoping for. I still did pretty well, but if I keep having weeks like this I won’t hit my goal when I want to. My workouts and running have been on track,Continue reading “Week Two Summary”
Week One Summary
It always seems easiest to take off weight in the very beginning when you start working I find. This week seems to be no exception. I’ve been working hard and making sure I eat right, except for a couple small lapses, but even those were minor really. This week I put in five 5k morningContinue reading “Week One Summary”
