So the last time I did this MONTHLY segment was way back in September apparently. Ugh. I couldn’t even get good measurements for this though because I couldn’t find tape measure thing.
As for what I’ve been doing to working out and whatnot, I might be able to give a slightly more accurate description.

Last quarter, I was rock climbing and doing yoga 3 times a week. Once I started climbing, I was doing less and less weight training until I wasn’t doing any at all.
5 weeks into this quarter, and all I’m really doing is rock climbing 3 or so times a week. I will say it’s about a 15 minutes walk from the gym to where I park, with a few hills distributed in between. It’s not much shorter from my last class TO the gym, so at least I do a bit of walking… I suppose. Though I want to get back into doing weights. So hopefully in the next week or two I can start getting back into the swing of things. I haven’t even been doing much in the way of yoga.
I don’t know, I need to do something or my weight might be swinging back up in the near future. I will say though, this about the best shape I’ve ever been in. Just before I started college in 2007, I went to Hawaii for a couple of weeks. When I came home, I was about 173 or so, so I’m about where I was back then. Again though, there’s been a few hills in between those 2.
Back in Fall of 2009, I was about 220, so I’m feeling pretty good. While I wouldn’t mind losing another pound or two, what I would like to do is put on some muscle, so I guess we’ll see how that goes in the near future.
And hey, hold the presses, I think I have some ability to jog now! I felt like doing some running a week or two ago,* so I set out. I decided I wanted to get some stuff from the store, so I jogged the long way there. Now usually about half that distance, I’m in the fetal position trying to suck in as much oxygen as I can,**** but I actually just jogged all the way there. Ha! In you face Verizoninjas. Catch me now!
Well, to close out this Bloggaday, I’m going to leave you with my immaculate record keeping of climbs I’ve been doing this quarter. I will say it’s a good thing I’m almost at 155, because it’s a drag to keep updated. While I’ll keep climbing even after I make 155, I’m not sure if I’ll keep track of my climbs this well. I’m sure I will, because if I don’t I’m going to be pissed at myself 2 months down the line. Yeah, I’ve talked myself into it. I’m going to track my progress all quarter. Are you happy? If it wasn’t for this blog post, I probably would have stopped and been perfectly content for two months. Thanks a lot, Bloggaday Readers. Like I didn’t have enough on my plate being the PR Director for Southern California premiere international art and literary magazine, The Sand Canyon Review, which you can find on Facebook AND Myspace.

New to the Bloggaday? These are the essential posts to see
158 – Boxer V Brief – Short, concise joke machine and a DYNAMIC ENTRANCE! to my favorite Bloggadays of the Second Trigaday
http://tiny.cc/Bloggaday158
159 – A Phthalates-filled Sbarro Breadstick – This was just a funny Bloggaday despite the essence being something no one will get unless the look up what a phthalate is
http://tiny.cc/Bloggaday159
174 – FNtCCA,aToTbDD– While I think it’s clear I rarely EDIT the Bloggaday, this train-of-thought post shows how much I have to FILTER it…
http://tiny.cc/Bloggaday174
183 – SotW 13 – This one had it all. Pretty much every bit that’s been a major player in the SotW made its way into this one, so it’s a good one to try.
http://tiny.cc/Bloggaday183
134 – SotW 5 – This particular Song of the Week featured the characters a bit truer to their original concept. After a while, I started liking Tom too much and changed him a bit which caused changes to Chuck.

227 – PWND: TSHBRotCCPS pt16 was some solid fiction content. Plus, that was probably some of the finest Final Thought I’ve ever thought up.

* I was actually listening to I Wanna Run, and thought, “Hey, this is good running music. I should go do that.”**
** So I immediately sprinted to my computer and spent half an hour*** making a good playlist for running.
*** It was actually probably 45 seconds on my iPhone,****
**** But this has got a bit more of that hyperbolic taste I wanted to leave in your mouth.


but that’s not as hyperbolic in making my point.
