winter blues

howdy

well, i don't have the blues myself this winter - but for those who do, thought i would point out an article from my friend brian rendel about seasonal affective disorder

interesting read

quick update: i've been managing to run once or twice a week, and shoveling snow in between - also got my first session of strength training in last weekend - finally got a makeshift workout space set up in the attic - maybe i'll video it or put some shots up on flickr before long here

also managing to keep the weight steady under 225 despite a decreased workout schedule and holiday/post-holiday dietary madness

as the weather improves, i'm ready to kick it in to high gear again for the next round of weight loss

will have a podcast update out soon

New Year - Back On Track

the bad news: i gained two pounds over the holidays due to inactivity and gluttony

the good news: there really wasn't much gluttony, and i'm back on track with exercise now - ran three times over the past week and will be able to get at least one workout in on the indoor track at the ymca this weekend

holding at 225 pounds - seven pounds to go for my goal - and hoping to get there by the end of the month
