Wow, way too long since my last post...

Sorry this post is so past due, I can't even say I've been too busy, just too lazy.

Everything is going pretty good, I've been completing my workouts and riding my bike to work most days.  I had Wayne up the intensity of one of my workouts, and it kicked my ass.  I'm looking forward to getting better at it.  My ride to work takes me about 40 minutes, which is kind of nice since google estimated it would take me 50 minutes.  Suck it google!  The ride home is very fun, all down hill, and I've hit 40 mph coming back home which was both exhilarating and scary.

As far as my fitness Progress goes, things are more or less on track.  I need to refocus on my diet, but my workouts are on target, and I think it shows.  For getting the diet on track again, the ever beautiful Audrey found a bunch of simple crock pot recipes that she prepped and froze.  So now all we need to do is thaw a meal in the fridge over night, and toss it in the pot in the morning.  No more getting home from work feeling too tired to want to cook anything!  So far we've done 2 meals, one was a rootbeer pulled pork, and last night was a hawaiian bbq and applesauce chicken.  Both were delicious.  We'll have leftovers tonight, and for tomorrow, nothing but options!

Here are some pictures I took from Saturday after my workout.


Things are getting better all the time.  I should be ready to kick the Spartan Sprints ass in October!  

Monday begins school, back at the University.  This will be a big change for me, as most of the classes I've been taking over the last 2 years have been mainly online, now all but one class is in person.  I'm a little worried that time will become more of an issue, but I'm sure I'm up for it.  Plus before, I was working full time, now I have an extra 20 hours a week that I didn't before.  Either way, wish me luck!
