    Terrible, to be frank. Finally getting back into it after time off for a couple injuries/issues (inner right groin strain, right kne Osgood-Schlattters flair up, and right side ITB issues). I was working a run streak and made it 104 days of a minimum 1 mile/day, but completely ignored my...

    Gonna knock mine out this weekend. No time for me through the week right now.

    2020 fitness goals

    This month was not my best. 123 mi, 4800ft of gain. Really didn't think this Covid stuff was going to affect my attitude/motivation, but it really did. On a positive note, this month I had my personal best half marathon at 1:55 and managed a 20 mile run with no pain/soreness, so at least I...

    Murph was humbling. In an hour and a half I got the two 1 mile runs done and 240 squats, 140 push ups, and 70 assisted pull ups. I was beat, mentally and physically. I quit, took the wife to pick up our groceries and ate a quick bite. When we got back home it started nagging at me that I was...

    Great job guys! I only managed 112 running miles, quite a bit behind pace. Wife is still layed up with her shattered ankle, but we got surgery taken care of and shes mending, so I am finally able to get out for some longer runs. Got a bunch of calisthenics done this month, but ate like crap...

    January stats. Not the start to the year that I wanted, but the one I got done. Getting a jump on February though with 12.5 miles yesterday and 11 this morning, along with a calisthenics workout each day too. Keep after it!

    It can definitely be a bear to keep up with big mileage years. Scheduling races helped me a lot, and FAILING races helped me even more. My big failure in 2018 and another in May of last year galvanized my resolve to stop running on the treadmill ad much as possible and just brave the elements...

    Not gonna lie, I'll be lucky to complete Murph in <1.5Hr, if at all, honestly. Pull ups are going to be my Achilles Heel. But I'll never know unless I try, and if I fail it's just one more thing to work towards. Zero shame if I give it everything I've got!

    Improving the Nomad 1

    Here's a pic of the back panel showing how the wings attach with the g hooks. I'll try to get some better pics in the next day or so.

    Improving the Nomad 1

    Not a Nomad, but I had the wings cut off my EMR2 and had webbing loops added to them along with G-hooks. Now they attach to the pack/frame with G-hooks and can either be connected in the middle w/ SR buckles or have the straps run around the outside like the original setup. Honestly, I love...

    For me right now a good time would be finishing the whole thing, lol. I put it in my Google calendar so I can't forget.

    Well, one thing I have just learned reading what some of you guys do is, I am WEAK, lol. Goals though, and great motivation. I know I'm a decent runner but definitley lacking in my functional strength. Murph sounds like a good marker to check myself out. So new goal = Complete a Murph...

    Out of curiosity, what is the current pushup/pullup/squat/lunge/plank routine you're doing? I just started one of the free Darebee.com programs and these are the types of exercises I want to be doing this year. As a runner mainly I don't want tons of bulk, just great overall strength,

    2020 fitness goals

    Ended up hitting all of my goals but 2 last year (failed on getting down to 180# and getting my pull ups to 15), so those are on the list again this year. Also, finish the Gnaw Bone 50 miler in May, finish the Indiana Trail 100 miler in October, 2500 total miles of running, and 150k of vert...
