Reboot

With summer less than six weeks away and a busy Spring Semester coming to a close I'm looking to write a little more - and it has been almost a year since I posted anything here, which is sad.

And there is so much to discuss - I feel like Gene Wilder in "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" when he gets that crazy/excited look in his eyes that there is so much to do and so little time. So much has happened in the last eight months and so much has changed with respect to my health and fitness.

Here are a couple quick updates:

- my weight is down to 218 (as of last Friday) - cracking the 220 lb. barrier was a huge mental sticking point and getting under it has taken a lot of trial & error - more on that later.

- I probably "workout" or train less than I did a year ago but those sessions are much more focused and effective.

- I'm also running less - more on that later.

- Overthinking and gym A.D.D. remain my Achilles heel.

- Recovery and fueling/diet/when to eat mean much more to me now than they did a few years ago.

- I want to start playing basketball again regularly.

- My kids health has taken priority over my own - nothing is bad with their health - I mean this in more preventive terms of eating better and playing/moving more.

More to come.
