I’ve had ups and downs for the last couple years, but am in a really motivated phase right now. Just posting to share that. Doing treadmill once a day, putting in intervals of running to burn about 550kCal/hr, am eating right (and not much), and am thinking about going to 2x a day on the [...]

Awesomesauce

by Steve265 January 28, 2010

I bought running shoes last night! WooT! As I mentioned the other day, all of my running, working, and a large portion of my casual day to day stuff had been in a pair of Nike Reax.  I didn’t buy them with the intention of working out at the time, I bought them because they looked cool, [...]

Defeated, but not Out of the Running

by Charles December 14, 2009

I know… who is this guy who’s posting here?  Actually, I used to blog a lot about my weight-loss journey until I hit a few snags in the road and virtually quit blogging at all.  However, though I had pretty much stopped focusing on weight-loss, I had not given up on what I had loved [...]

265andfalling Marathon Challenge: Update #2

by Ron December 3, 2009

Luckily the rain has seemingly stopped. It’s nothing but a sky of grey clouds which don’t appear to be menacing at all. When I got home last night from my walk, I was exhausted. My ankles were sore and my right hamstring has been feeling a little tight since the walk home from the scrapyard [...]
