We’ve reached the end of 2020 and also the end of December which was the month long virtual 5k wwwp5k. When I first decided to challenge myself to do not just one 5k during the month but try to run a 5k every day I wasn’t really sure I was going to make it. EvenContinue reading “A month of running”

Runner’s World Run Streak – AKA Senff’s Bootcamp
Runner’s World has a holiday run streak challenge that it does. This is heavily US based so it runs from their Memorial Day May 25th until July 4th. That’s 41 days where you commit to running at least 1 mile each day. One of my co-workers, Senff, recruited a few of us to join himContinue reading “Runner’s World Run Streak – AKA Senff’s Bootcamp”
Isolation Fitness
With the isolation going on I’ve been working hard on building the habits to become healthy. I bought a new bike which I absolutely love. The weather hasn’t been the best but I’ve gotten out on a couple good rides. I can’t wait to ride a bunch more. After a few recommendations I also purchasedContinue reading “Isolation Fitness”
Fitness update
Back near the beginning of August I wrote about my fitness and plans to get back into a good routine and health. Today I hit a couple milestones so I thought I would give a quick update. My main goals were to keep my physical activities varied and not only doing one thing. For bothContinue reading “Fitness update”

Fitness, or lack there of, has been a reoccurring topic on this blog and my life. Like many people who struggle with weight things have been a roller coaster. A few years back I thought I had finally broken that and had built all the good habits I needed to stay fit and healthy, butContinue reading “Fitness Roller Coaster”
My hats
My family likes to make fun of me because I like hats. They say I have too many and give me a hard time when ever I go to buy a new one. I don’t really have that many and most of them serve a purpose or occasion. Recently I made a deal though thatContinue reading “My hats”
This guy wouldn’t let the cold stop him
Yesterday I didn’t move very much. Right up until about 9pm my Fitbit was only showing about 1200 steps, that’s pretty lazy. Earlier in the day when it was even lower than that I was chatting with my team about how I should go out for a walk but that I was being a wimpContinue reading “This guy wouldn’t let the cold stop him”
Stupidity and Laziness
Back in August 2014 I had reached a big milestone after a lot of hard work. I was so proud of myself and swore I would never go back. At that time I reached my goal weight of under 180lbs after months of hard work and dedication. Things went up and down from there butContinue reading “Stupidity and Laziness”
Worldwide WordPress 5k
During the Grand Meetup one of the events organized was the wwwp5k, a Worldwide WordPress 5k. It’s something that has been going on for few years now where WordPress users can run 5k from anywhere in the world and yet do it together by blogging about the experience. Even though you can do it alone andContinue reading “Worldwide WordPress 5k”
