Ok now, this is ridiculous.

My how the time flies. Between projects at work, family crisis and just the plain ol' movement of life it has been almost 4 months since I last posted. Sorry about that folks.

I am sad to say that I pretty much abandoned running in June. Here in the Kansas City area it rained pretty much the whole month and with what I suspect was over-training lethargy I just didn't want to run any more. I feel bad because after doing so well with Natalie's fitness program at work the 1st 12 weeks I sputtered and fell out of it the 2nd 12 weeks.

If you were interested I had 6 interim weigh-ins and an additional measurement post I could make but at this point i say let's just skip 'em and get on with the show.

Here is my restart point as of today:

Weight: 294.8
Body Fat %: 37.6

Neck: 19"
Arm: 12.5"
Chest: 49"
Waist: 48"
Hips: 48.5"
Thigh: 25.75"
Calf: 18"

I guess officially I am still down 20lbs for the year but it hurts to say I was at one point down almost 50lbs. I do feel like I have some level of fitness left but I would hate to see how far my running distance has fallen off. I guess I will find out though some time in the near future. Maybe Thursday.

The reinvention of self in 2009 has stalled out a bit. I've got the eyes seeing at 20/15, last month I bought the luxury car I loved from my younger years but now I need to work on the hardest part of my reinvention, my physical self.

I have ~4 months left this year. It is time to get back to work.
