I got in a decent run tonight. I went for speed and not distance tonight. It was pretty nice out so I shed a few layers of my normal winter gear. Some tights, two pair of b-ball shorts, two shirt and a hat. Felt a little lighter that is for sure. But like I said, I was trying to run faster instead of my normal fat burning sluggish trot.

Started a 30 day run challenge today. Nothing too special but something to get me started and ready for spring. Nice winter night to get in a run so I couldn’t have picked a better night to get started. I finished up work at about 8:00. I ate some dinner and then headed out about nine.

Warm up 1 mile run Superset (weight x reps x sets) BB Curls...

Kurt was a pretty good high school swimmer and I think still swims for fitness. Here is what Kurt...
