Half of Phil

Just realized I passed my 4 year anniversary of this journey last week.  I guess in the fog of COVID19 lock down I hadn't thought about it. I've done well staying on track with my fitness.  I've logged over 90 activities in my FitBit log.  I've run 13 times so far this month for nearly 40 miles. I've kept up running my 5 miles every Saturday this month.  I've cut my average pace down to 12 and half minutes from 13 the first time I ran it.  My plan is to bump my Saturday runs to 6 miles in May.  I've been rewarding myself after the long runs with some Diet Coke.  Not gonna lie I look forward to those soda's all week, the chemicals in that particular poison are definitely an addiction.  Weight loss has kinda stalled the last couple weeks, I'm sure due to candy consumption.  Its hard not to have treats when all else has gone to shit.  School has officially been called off for the rest of the year.  Two of the weeks of our summer activitie

I've been weight lifting with my son 3 days a week and running a few days a week.  Last Saturday I ran 5 miles!!!  I'm going to try to keep doing that each weekend.  My goal is to definitely run Tues and Thursdays and do 9 Round M, W, F.  I slept like crap this Wednesday so I didn't run this Thursday but did on Mon & Tuesday this week.  We've been limiting our activities and trips to the store.  I went to Restaurant Depot again this morning to get some meat.  They were more picked over than they were 3-4 weeks ago, but I was able to get what we needed.  Prices had cree
