Workout #1

Workout #1 is in the books!

As some may know and others have read, this day has been 6 years in the making; not necessarily in a good way :)

Today was great...anticipation, excitement...a kid in a candy store...maybe not the best analogy, how about a virgin in a brothel...okay stopping while I'm still ahead...today went well.

I eating was spot on albeit maybe a bit shy of calories. I consumed 1572 calories and 137 grams of protein. Avoided chips, beer, and all those good things :)

I met up with Anthony at the track at 5pm; early of course as I hate being late. BUT he beat me there...damit! Here I am walking to the track and I feel guilty so I start jogging over to where he was. Sure, he had to pick the furthers spot from the entrance gate. Regardless, I could not walk over to him so I jogged. Winded I gave him a big hug! Surprised him I am sure but I was very happy to see him and know that the hard part was over; commitment. I was there, ready to go, to trust Anthony and make myself better. I gave him his hat - one matching mine, except for the initials on the back - and off we went.

We talked for a few minutes and then ran a lap, he ran with me. One lap, 440 yards and so it was on. We progressed through various strength, core, and flexibility exercises broken up by laps on the track. We closed with stretching...What A Great Day!

I feel good, I will be sore, but I remember back...6 years when I was in great shape...and know I can get back there.

I am trying to figure a way to share my meals...once I figure that out, I'll add it in.

In keeping with my transparent 'open kimono' style here is a pick of me this morning. Scary yes but that is what it is. I spared you all the naked one I took moments before, thank me later.

Okay done for now and time for bed.
