Greetings program!

Alright  let's get to it!

Goal 1 - RUNNING!

Just signed up for the Oakland 2022 Marathon!!!! Got to figure out a training plan but first we have to keep the running habit happening

 

We are looking to run 3 days a week with distances of 3 to 5 miles during the week and 5+ on the weekends. 

 

We are also signed up for a 5K on Sept 12th which should be a good test

 

 

Goal 2 STRETCH

To keep from having trouble running - we're going to try to do 3 days of yoga between the runs. This will likely be very low impact and boring yoga but still 

 

Goal 3 Training Plan

 

To go with all this we need a plan, I'll be looking into what's out there and try to find what will work for us.

 

Goal 4 Savings

With our recent home purchase we are running low in our savings - so we'll be rebuilding that emergency fund while trying to figure out what's next.

OH the fun of working up a training calendar

We knocked out a 3 miler this morning, and you couldn't have asked for much better weather wise - 55°F with clouds

 

Spent some time yesterday looking at marathon plans and think we're going to do the Hal Higdon Novice 2 plan as it is an 18 week plan. We are near the base miles suggested - so we will be working toward getting in longer weekend runs and hopefully not over training

 

First of the month means bills around here - so that was done yesterday.  Tossed money into the savings account which sadly is only earning 0.4% interest, probably should look around for something with a better rate... I'll toss that on the to-do list.

 

Let's see what else ... pondering tossing my ICRPG one-off group (aka my D&D group when the current DM is out of town) into a game of The Mecha Hack. I backed the Mission Manual kickstarter to get both books in print so reading and absorbing the system has been a constant in my non-work non-running happenings

 

happy tuesday nerds!

Oh I made a thing! 

As I mention I'm working thru Mecha Hack so I made my own sheet.
 

 

While not perfect, should do the trick.

 

Now to figure out how to turn a image into a form fillable pdf without any Adobe tools!

I had to shift to doing work on my company laptop - so I'm not on the forum much ... sorry

 

Goal 1 - RUNNING!

This was a success - sometimes we had to pivot due to smoke or not feeling well but we did manage to get 3 runs in a week all over 3 miles

 

Goal 2 STRETCH

BIG failure here -- we got yoga mats but never started the habit of pre-bedtime yoga... will kick this to the next challenge

 

Goal 3 Training Plan

Picked this pretty early, so yay!

 

Goal 4 Savings
Money went into the saving like clock work ... or whatever is a timely happening.

 

3/4 ain't bad.

Great work!
