I do like the start of any exercise regime after a long absence. The gains come instantly. It is already easier to do crunches.
Meanwhile, I saw the new Sherlock Holmes late Tuesday night. Respectably enjoyable despite probably having Sir Arthur Conan Doyle rolling over in his grave.
Update: Apparently the room count and the who's chatting code is not working either, so please ignore those for right now.
The chat room is back up, there is still one minor issue. As a result, you will not be prompted for a password when you enter the room for the time being. I will keep you posted on any other issues or changes.
Thanks, MCR

Well, the plan was to go to the gym. It’s been so long that I had myself convinced the gym closed at 10:00, so that if I left the house around 8:45, I’d get there and have enough time to do Monday’s routine and shower.
Silly me, they close at 9:00. So I came home and did the workout listed above. The push-ups were easier to do than they were on the 1st. I forgot that the crunches are now three sets of eleven and blew it on the second set. Oh, well; at least I did them.

Completion of three sets of crunches at 10 each means I will graduate to 11 each this week. It’s a Sunday, so I didn’t do much. Tomorrow is just around the corner, and that means back to the gym for a new year and a better body!
Here's a big welcome to the influx of new users and profiles here at MCR. I'm sure it's in part due to the new policy of needing a site user id to enter the chat room. I'd been contemplating this decision for awhile now, and the start of 2010 seemed like the right time.
One of the main reasons for this change is to make it more difficult for anonymous users to enter the chat room and cause problems. While this may impact the numbers initially, I think it will improve the quality and make for a better chat room experience. I know that those intent on caus
The problem with spaces in user names has now been fixed. User names with spaces can now access the chatroom.
Thanks for your patience.

Cardio: - Walk/Jog Mix — 2.25 mi @ 35 min
+First mile = 15.5 min
+Avg. mile = 15.5 min
After at least three months away from any serious cardio, I went out to the high school track today. The weather warmed up enough to where it seemed like a good idea, though there was definitely a nippy breeze that took advantage of all that wide open space to hit me in the face every time I was heading north.
All that time away from fitness definitely set me back. It was a disappointing feeling but I didn’t let it shut me down.
