Yes Please!

AHHHHhhh....I keep adding to my Army adventures and they have led me to finally hanging my hat in Clarksville TN just outside Fort Campbell KY. This is where I'll work for the next 6 or 7 months until I tackle a year in Afghanistan.


Yep, another year but that's not going to get me down or sulking to myself or anything of the sort! Instead, I will use this time to my advantage to work out like a fiend and get out and cycle with my li'l man.


So, YES PLEASE! Gimme more outdoors, gimme more trails to run and more roads to cycle because my body is begging to get back into shape!


I do have someone virtually beside me who motivates me and makes me laugh, unfortunately he is not physically beside me but when my moon and stars finally align, all will be right with the world and we will blaze the trails together. 


I also have a good girlfriend here that, event though she doesn't know it, is going to be going on some workout adventures with me...he he he!!! (evil snicker)...


....I do have the best little man in the world with me and he's not happy with me making him cycle 10.40 miles on his first day...I gotta say, I think he really likes it because he wants to go again. I have also had him run a mile or two with me. I usually take it slow and take a couple walk breaks with him so he can gradually get better at running. Lately it's been to hot to have him out there with me so I do it when he is at school or camp.


Anyway, to top off the outdoor activities with indoor activities, I have re-started my body pump again and...yep, I did it, I ordered Insanity by Beach Body! I know, but I need to be able to change things up now and then, after a while the DVD's get boring and ya gotta switch it up a little now and then but I'll tell ya, Body Pump will make you sore and happy.


I've also started to train in my Vibram 5-Fingers to strengthen up my feet and my calves one mile at a time. I've increased about 1/2 a mile and I'll continue the 1.5 miles for another week or so just to see how much I can improve over the next six months.


Oh, by the way, I haven't been doing much running until I got here. I found out from my new boss that we have a division run the week after I sign in...LUCKY ME! NOT! On to Screamin' Eagle's Week!


Until next time...keep on keepin' on!
