A Week Where Things Actually Worked

Well, that was unexpected.

After the previous week’s allergy/possible-cold/sleep-deprivation circus, I figured this week would be more of the same. Instead, things just kinda worked.

Gym days? Hit ’em. Tuesday’s run? 4K, non-stop, no issues.

Thursday was an off day, then Saturday rolled around and I knocked out a 5K. Again, non-stop, no problems; no cramps, no calves threatening mutiny, no dramatic internal monologue about life choices around mile two. Well, no serious internal monologues, I’m still not one of the “OMG I’m running!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” people.

So with that small but encouraging win on the board, I’m starting a 10K training program this coming week. The goal isn’t anything heroic, just building consistency and working toward a 10K around the one-hour mark by mid-June.

After the last few months, consistency is the real goal. My diet has been pretty on point, so with the gym and running consistency, I hope to see the recomp engine fire up again.

Lift, Run, Recover, Repeat.

Still lifting. Still losing. Still showing up. Usually.
