The warm up

I guess Denver had a bit more snow and ice than we did. It wasn’t too bad up here, but Vail Pass was closed most of the day. I was headed down to Denver today but the roads look pretty icy on the cdot cameras on line. I guess I’ll postpone my trip to Friday. Jag is supposed to have two baseball games today but we’ll see how the field is. They said they’d make the call this morning.

Lots going on at work, too much to talk about but suffice it to say, I’m busier than I’ve ever been. Lori too is busy as usual as she’s back to working 10 hour plus days. She’s getting ready right now at 6am as she has a workout at 7 with Rod the Workout God, who is our trainer. This guy is like some magician as he knows everything about anatomy and how the body processes food. Once you understand things, the body responds pretty quickly. I feel sort of stupid for working out for most of my life (a good 35 years plus) and not knowing all the secrets. With that said, while the workouts target specific areas of the body that is weak, 80% of getting in shape is diet. Eating clean (as it’s called) is different at first but once you get in a groove, fat just falls off. I’m probably in the best shape I’ve been in 30 years, if not my whole life, if you consider overall muscular health. The weight loss is just a byproduct, but it sure feels good. Lori once told me, “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels”, which is pretty much true. My main goal when I started was to gain overall better balance as when you get older, balance and leg and core strength are a key to longevity. Ok, enough about us and working out, I’ve probably lost most of you by now but I’m always amazed at how quickly the human body responds. It’s pretty remarkable. But I sure miss a hamburger or slice of pizza every now and then.

I talked with Robin yesterday for a while. She seems to be doing well. Maybe she can come up for a visit around Mother’s Day as we’ll be gone to California for Easter. We’re trying to find a time when we can get us all together and that looks like about it until the end of June. Guess I’ll run so I can get the boys moving. The Colorado Rockies are 2 and 0, whoo hoo! Have a great day, GB
