Well the new year is here and it is time to get off my butt and knock those holiday pounds off. Actually there are a little more than holiday pounds. As you may have noticed last year was not the best year for the economy or small companies. However, the company I worked for survived but due to the stress and long work hours I put on a few pounds. About 9 months ago I was weighing in at 209 and now I am back up to 240.
Oh well, no point whining about it.
So it about time I got back on my routine of eating healthy and exercise. I vow not to let work push me to eating my stress.
There will be one more obstacle to overcome for the next 6 months and beyond. My wife is currently pregnant so I need to try to avoid the extra weight while keeping my wife happy and healthy.
I am planning on running my first half marathon on April 11th of this year and I am very excited about it. I am hoping to get my weight back down into the 210s by then or as close as I can by then.
And I also need to start getting my base saddle time in so I am ready for the 2010 North Texas (Mountain Bike) Race Series. I wasn't able to participate last year for the first time in 3 years and wasn't really happy with myself.
Wish me luck!
