Actually having to bust ass this week - 7:00am - 10pm, no time for lunch or running.  Internal audit blues.   But ... sometimes "The Man" take over and while we work for "The Man", we must do what what the bastard wants us to do.

Make ur $.

The skipping lunch part should help with the de-fat regimen too.   

I am a bone head or idiot or just insane in the membrane..

Sept 1st - I was 192# dressed to run - about equal to best shape of my life.  Yesterday I was 222# naked.

Lot's of stupid excuses - Post goal race let-down (Striders 24), achillies, Another goal race too soon (Glacial 50), 15 hour days at work.  Too much eating and booze.  Just a bunch of bullshit.  Sometimes I think I am afraid to suceed.

Not very impressed with myself.  Don't really care about running Monkey (I will be there and run), I have likely screwed myself for Desert Solstice 24 (I will be there are run).

I am ready to start my end of year shut down and start planning for 2013.

But no rest for the weary or the wicked.

I hit a low point every year after taking a break - Usually in January, maybe this is my low point ... probably not, probably still haven't hit rock bottom yet.

.  Yesterday I was 222# naked. 

 

All Ilene saw.

At this point - I have some good goals for the rest of this year and next.  But given my recent track record at achieving goals - They will remain private.

The one thing that is gone is any taper for Monkey - Not only will it be train through, My plan is to have this week and next at as many miles as I can run ... Whatever the hell that means.

  

 

Hey!!  

 

 

.....i mean 

Essentially nothing but smileys. That's a yellow card.

I ran out of yellow cards. I ordered more in bulk.
