I'm also not shaving during this streak.

Abstinence may also help.

I'm trying this.

Does autoerotic asphyxiation count?

I entered a two mile race on the elliptical yesterday. Today ran two miles and worked arms.

That counts as a workout, so it can be added to your streak count.

Solid 45 min core workout today.

?? miles in 60 minutes

Ran on the indoor track tonight. It was surprisingly fun. I was the only one there, so I reversed directions every 20 minutes. I lost track of laps, but I felt good and was pretty much running balls out, so it was probably about 9 miles. Great run.

Streak: 11

Got in 3.106 on the treadmill last night and as much as I thought I'd keep it to my minimum, given the time of night and the cold I'm fighting, I still knocked 8 seconds off my best time thus far (5 runs) with a bit of a kick at the end. I'll add, my music selection certainly has an affect on my overall run. Chose a bit of a slower album the other night and it was certainly not my best go, shall be keeping it to quicker tunes.

Streak: 5

My wife is a day behind myself streak wise but we're well on our way to solidifying a solid exercise schedule with the new year.

5 miles in 36 minutes

Felt like shit all day. Went home early, immediately went running, then slept for 3 hours with my son, who's also sick. The run wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be.

Streak: 12

Streak - 5. Now to find stuff to do over the weekend

[oasisfan35]

Nice job muscling through t2b.

Resistance training for about 40 minutes: squats/leg raises/leg extensions/leg curls/heel walking, had to skip calf raises. T2B, any stock in the half-marathon prep schedules I've seen online? I'd consider starting soon just to see if I can handle one on my birthday in July.

Streak: 6

Hold on now, fellows.

Everybody knows that rest is important to the body as well as training.

You're hurting yourself if you don't allow your body anytime to recuperate.

Adding you to the OP. What's your minimum, friend?

I like Hal Higdon's half marathon (Pikermi) plans. I would advise going with the intermediate plan. I like that there's a track/tempo workout every week. I would like to see that Thursday run bumped up to 5 or 7 miles for weeks 6 through 10. I've used this plan a couple of times when coming out of summer hibernation here in AZ.

Not feeling the best today as I think I've caught t2b's man-flu, but I still managed to peel out 17k on the bike and a core workout.

Will hopefully get out for a run tomorrow.

Streak - 3

We should probably stop having sex and sharing needles.
