Christening my new pair of Nike Pegasus running shoes
-
I know I should be running instead of writing about running but I was reinstalling run-tracking apps onto my Samsung Galaxy S8 Active and wanted to start with a fresh pair of running shoes since you can plug your runners into a couple of the apps and then when you track a run the apps will also track the mileage that you put onto your shoes.

Come hell or high water
-
This is where I should be feeling frustrated about the fact that we're half through with the 2015 Concept2 Holiday Challenge and I am only 70,983 meters in out of my goal of 200,000 meters by midnight, the end of Christmas Eve.

Consider your own fat mass in your kettlebell workouts
-
I am around 300 pounds (136kg) and my fat mass is around 33%-40%. 300lbs*.33=99lbs (45kg) and 300lbs*.40=120lbs (54.5kg). It's really important for all of us plus-sized (ahem, obese), big and tall, boys and girls to consider how much extra weight we have on our bones when we take up kettlebell training.

Biked to meet my buddy Bob and if I were 5 minutes quicker, I wouldn't have been dumped on by all the rain.

Cycling: Fri, 10 May 2019 22:38:08: Avengers with my buddy Andrew
-
Caught Avengers with my buddy Andrew and rode home. Didn't get hit with any rain on either of the second two rides today! And got to try out my Te-Rich 1200 Lumens Bicycle Headlight for the first time and I was very happy with it, though I think it and my GPS watch holders both need shims because they don't stay put.

Cycling: Fri, 10 May 2019 17:15:43: drinks with Bob
-
I left drinks with Bob at a quarter after 5 PM in order to meet Andrew at Courthouse Cinema. En route, I decided I really didn't want to grind up Wilson Boulevard right before the movie, swamping out my second t-shirt; so, I cheated and jumped the Metro from Rosslyn to Courthouse.

Cycling: Fri, 24 May 2019 20:14:46: Pentagon Bus Stop
-
I wish I took photos and I wish I got more of the ride. I also forgot to turn off my GPS watch when I loaded my bike up at the Pentagon Bus Stop for the last 2 miles up the hill to my apartment, so I really wasn't going around at 40 miles per hour uphill, so sorry about that!
