Update on the update of the update of the update

Some stats as of July 1, 2013 Since my last official weigh in on June 4, despite my recent coma (or maybe because of), I still managed to drop another 2 lbs, and somewhere in there actually walked a few miles. Mark is still lounging on his vaca, so no recent updates on what he might […]

The Idiot’s Fitness Update: Weeks #6 and #7

Week 6 featured our 4-day, 2,000 mile road-trip to Indiana, meaning 4 days of long hours sitting in the car and 4 days of restaurant meals. Not exactly the prescription for healthy fitness. I did manage to squeeze in 5 miles of walking, along with 40 miles on the Stationary Bike. Week 7 saw me […]
