@mch1984 - got another 5 in today on tight and tired legs. Happy I went.

It would appear I have taken over this thread with additional support and commentary from @Scurvy .

Was it a swamp swim or run through the water?

Stopped just long enough to snap the picture.
In case you're wondering where @mch1984 is today; he is out fishing on his brand new boat that he bought yesterday. Some of us get in our workouts. Some of us fish and lounge around on new boats all day. Sheeeshh...

Best day to own a boat... the first and last

Sorry guys, glad yall kept this thread active without me. I have not been working out, but have been sticking on the diet and am down 10lbs. That was friday, pretty sure I sweated out 10 more Sunday at the lake and afterward getting the boat ready for storage. It topped out at 105 that day. Yall come on down, any excuse to get this thing out works for me, it's going to be a lot of fun. Especially since I got the first trip jitters out of the way. I've never owned a boat, never unloaded or loaded a boat and now I've done both. Went great and nobody at the ramp knew that was my first time. Got it on the first try. Here is the boat and the very first fish brought on board, he's little but he was the first. Not sure how much working out will be done this week, we leave Friday for out cruise. However since we will NOT be counting calories on a cruise we have decided to get up and at least walk some or do some kind of work out on the boat everyday to help make up for it. Even though I'm not working out, I have been more active and spent more time outdoors in the last month then I have in a long time. I think getting my big butt off the couch will help as well. Also the gout is coming in and out right now, I've never had this many attacks in a row. I think the massive amount of protein I'm eating with the coach and the weight loss is adding to it. It flared up yesterday but I made it through the day fighting it, the attacks haven't been severe just there.

Well that all seems way better than running!! Unless a guy with a knife is chasing you...and that still seems like a better way to get away!

@mch1984 - 6 for today and it was the first one that felt pretty decent in 3 weeks. What gives?

crusso1993 · Jul 27, 2019

Another 6 for today. Hope you're on the water somewhere catching a trophy fish!

crusso1993 · Jul 30, 2019

@mch1984 - Yoooohhoooooo... what gives? Where you been hiding? Ohhh, never mind, I'll just text you. 7 in for today.

crusso1993 · Aug 1, 2019

@mch1984 - 6 more for today while you're lounging around some big ship.

@Scurvy - I learned today that Matt (mch1984) is on a cruise. The guy gets a new job. Then immediately buys a new boat and goes on a cruise. He keeps saying he's into rebuilding pumps for oil rigs but I'm becoming skeptical!

crusso1993 · Aug 3, 2019

@mch1984 - got 8 in for today. Took it easy on this one with a number of breaks and really enjoyed it.
I cannot help but wonder if you've stuck to the diet plan during the cruise. Hhhmmmmm???

Lovely. Just lovely. You go off the rails on your diet, take weeks-on-end off and get an award. Further evidence of why the world is in the shape it is. ;Hilarious ;Hilarious ;Hilarious

Congrats on the 365!

Lol, thanks. I'm back on the diet as of saturday. As soon as we got back into port I started tracking again. Doing good so far, just been short on my calories over the weekend.

crusso1993 · Aug 6, 2019

@mch1984 - 6 more for the pact!

mch1984 · Aug 7, 2019

I was planning on doing some last night, but i mentioned in my 90 gallon build my tank crashed. It happen while I was gone I just didn't realize it till yesterday. I've lost a lot of coral and I spent most of the evening working on the tank. Pretty bummed out about it at the moment, it was my own mistake that caused it.

Lowell Lemon · Aug 7, 2019

Sorry to hear about the crash.

Sorry to learn about the 90. I just saw the updates in that thread and am happy to hear it's turning around already.

Also, unsure why, but a whole lot of the threads I follow stopped giving me notifications. All at the same time too. This and your 90 gal thread were among them. Weird.

Thanks, it's hopefully it keeps coming along.

@mch1984 - Forgot to post last night. Happened upon a friend at the 2 mile mark of yesterday's run. Apparently, I have something set with my watch whereby, if it's paused too long, it stops the run and resets. So, since I gabbed for a while with my friend, I only had time for a 4 miler.
GET MOVING!

crusso1993 · Aug 10, 2019

@mch1984 - 7 pact miles for today. I was thinking of doing 10 miles this morning. However, my head just wasn't into this one. I got about 1.5 miles in and gave serious consideration to turning around and going home. Nevertheless, I pushed on and got 7 done.

It appears your walks have not started again yet and I hope it's because you're out catching fish. Should this be the case, you better post up some pics of caught fish. Oh, and don't forget; 10 push-ups for every fish!
