As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t write much here anymore. What little I do write I tend to put on twitter or facebook (other than my flight logs which continue to go here). What I haven’t mentioned is that I also have another blog over at myfitnesspal.com which is strictly devoted to my exercising/weight loss efforts. I joined the local gym on my last birthday with the intent of getting stronger/healthier (and by getting stronger boost my metabolism to dispose of some excess tonnage). I may eventually link that here, but haven’t done so yet. On my last birthday, I was up to a higher weight than I’ve seen in about 2 years. Since that time I have gotten stronger (though not at the pace I had hoped for) and lost some weight (also, not quite at the rate I had hoped for), but I’m not where I expected to be. Part of it is due to timing and injury (the trip to Scotland was great, but did through a bit of a monkey wrench in the workout plans). I also made plans to compete in the Columbus half-marathon in Oct, however, very shortly into beginning training for that I had the aforementioned injury (knee) that has thrown those plans into doubt (I will post on that here soon though) That being said, I expect to consolidate some of that stuff back here (and/or double post) on this blog in coming weeks, so if there is anyone other than bots from search engines reading this, I really will be updating soon (as soon ans I feel I can take the time from my SANSFIRE talk prep).
