How is everyone else doing? I am sure most of you stay in shape year round. I did until last year which I took a year off of my training.No good excuses but it sure feels good to be pushing my body and working out regularly again. Hurts sooo good.


I had 13 weeks medication enforced of nada.

I'm about 5 weeks into working towards normal. The first push week, I walk/ran 2.8 miles in 33+ mins. with a heart rate in the high 150s. This week it's down to <26 with a 151...all run. I've out 3X in the snow hiking, climbing and snowshoeing. I ain't close to being where I want to be.

Once I get my running heart rate into the mid 140s there will be light at the end of the tunnel.

It hurts...especially after have 3 pounds of this or that on my feet. So good, is open to debate.
