I think from now on im going to start every heading with the goofy. it is slowly becoming the single greatest influence on my life right now. The task is huge, the training is time consuming and the sacrifice is great.
Have I mentioned why I am even doing this?

settling for less
A few years ago I decided to stop settling for less. I have since had to make very hard choices, sacrifices have been greater and the risk is higher.
This is the choice I made and even though it can get frustrating at times I can never go back to where I was.
We all get one life to live no more no less.

Where have you gone Joe Dimaggio.Super Spartan Goofy challenge
Wow its been a while.
Today is sept. 27th 2011 I turned 40 years old yesterday that rocks. Why? because the alternative sucks. The number in itself sucks though, its a grown ups age. I feel young I believe I act young but not in an immature way. The kids eat occasionally, I change the baby every so often.
I ran with some awesome people on saturday competing in the Super Spartan here on Staten Island. 8 miles of muddy trails and physical challenges. I loved every second of it.
As a guy who makes a living healthier see that the obstacle races are a terrific metaphor for life. With all of these mud races the more you train and prepare the more you get out of it. Fairly simple and straightforward I know but its true.
As far as my gols for the rest of '11. I am ever evolving my business into Wellness Coaching.
The Staten Island KettleBell Club will continue but it will be a subsidiary of Corona Wellness.
Corona Wellness the tri state's premiere health and wellness coach.
Running wise, I have 2 events left, a 50k trail run here on the island and the Goofy marathon and a half challenge this January.

spartan training
This week of training found me deep in the greenbelt for an attempted 25k but bailed at ten miles. Next big trail run I will finish the 25k. I am also focusing my weak area, pullups. i did a concentrated set of strictly upper body yesterday. Today i completed a routine that some of my clients are doing. i used a 25k bell for the clean and press and the russian twist.
Tomorrow back on the trails for about 6 miles at tempo for an upcoming half marathon.

recovery
Since I am down today with a little head cold I feel like talking about recovery.
Post workout nutrition. This video by Spartan sensation Hobie Call does a nice job detailing the importance of post workout refueling
http://youtu.be/ltDR6s8ZkgY?t=3s
Also, since I am ramping up my mileage for the Goofy, half marys, and a 50k trail run I have
begun using compression sleeves on my calves after big run days. This weekend I did back to back
runs and my calves were burning. Sliding these bad boys on really makes a difference. The soreness is reduced drastically and the tightness in my left achilles is basically nil.
Remember everyone, rest and recovery is just as important as putting in the work.

Spartan training/ rest days
Yesterday myself and some of my teammates for the 9/24 spartan went running in the greenbelt to log some miles and get them used to running, stopping, doing some upper body work and get back to it.
It was a terrific day. I love introducing the Greenbelt to people and its especially great that my wife Danielle is doing the Spartan with me.
But today........today my head is congested, swollen, i'm a little achy all due to a cold my kid gave me
so today is all about rest and recovery. Forced rest is annoying but necessary.
