MORNING

Weight training followed by 30 min on ArcTrainier.

I have a hot date with my drop dead gorgeous wife tonight, so I'm going to try and sneak out around lunch time for a quick early afternoon workout to get my second workout of the day in.  I haven't missed since I started on the Monday after Thanksgiving and the goal is to do it until the 23rd of Dec.  Almost there!!!  On Satrudays I only do my long run and I don't workout on Sundays, so after today, that leaves only 2 more 2 a days.

LUNCH

30 mins on stationary bike

Hot date huh... is it a special occasion?

Good job on keeping your goal! So what are you going to do after the 23?

AWWW!!! You DA MAN!!! I'm glad you have your priorities right!!!

SO HAPPY that you're reaching your short-term goal of 2-a-days. It looks like your training plan is working very well. You should be able to reach your Painter's PR goal and ready to raise the bar for Boston. AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!!

Nothing special, just we haven't gone out but once since our 10 day adventure in Belize. Life has just been so busy with the holidays and all. I don't know what I'll do between the 23rd and 1st, but starting the 1st I'm Boston Training.

Rhett...

Wow, time really flies. It seems like you just started the two-a-day workouts. Tell me again, what is the Arc Trainer?

The Arc Trainer is very close to an eliptical trainer, but I has a longer stride length.

Kudos on becoming quite the streaker.
