Half of Phil

This has been a tough season for me.  The 5k was a good success.  I finished under 41 minutes my mile time was right at the 13 min mark by their clock. I've kept up my step goals and going to 9Round as often as I can this year.  Overall weight loss for 2018 is 20 lbs.   It's a far cry from the 62 lost ins 2017 or the 71 lost in 2016 but given all I've been through the last year I'll take it as a win. Today last year I got the call mom died.  I do my best not to think about it, but it's not far from my mind. I'm hopeful that 2019 will be a good year, I'm looking forward to vesting at work in March, the boy has expressed interest in doing more 5ks so I'll try to find one to sign up for in the next month or so.  I'm sure soccer will kick back up in a few weeks and swim never let up so we'll stay busy.  My goals for 2019:   Continue 9Round Complete a 5k in under 35 minutes Keep logging food and steps Set up my garage workshop

Not too much to update this week.  The 5k is Saturday, I've done a couple practice run/walks my latest one was 12/4.  Since then it's either been brutal cold or ice on the ground.  I feel confident I can finish in my goal of 45 minutes.  Depending on the course perhaps maybe a bit better. The next month will be a tough one.  Lots of holidays and memories as well as the year anniversary of losing Mom.  I'm hopeful it'll all go ok, but it will definitely be a tough month. Next committed update 12/27
