just a perfect day to be out in nature..heres what i've learned so far...5 days in a row is too much...2 days on,one day off and then one day on works very well....felt great today...that 24 hours off really made a difference..got in 84 minutes but the key is at the end i wasnt strugglin to finish..will go back out 2mor and see if i get tired early..if i do i'll just keep on truckin..if i dont get tired early i'll know i'm gettin stronger...not goin to do 5 consecutive days again cause i'm not goin to take off consecutive days again...no matter what i'll do what my legs tell me to..
awesome dude,i buzzed through my walk to town and back today myself,was nice and cool,perfect weather for motoring! LOL keep it up,i havent owned a car in 5 years now so i have pounded a lot of pavement at this point,only takes me a few months to kill a pair of shoes! it does get easier,my round trip to town is 3.2 miles and i dont even notice it anymore,even loaded with groceries.

unclefishsticks,it's already gettin easier..how often do you walk to town?...i live in the country but the road to walmart doesnt have any room on the side to walk on..tried it a couple times and it's just too dangerous...thats a good distance...not too much but enough..

can i join you guys/gals i recentley began drinking again,and im really f'ing sick of it ive quite for about 4-6 months this year cold turkey, im really trying.
umm what im trying to do is go to a facility in china this year or somtime next year it cost 8000 U.S. to go for a year,its called the wugulun achadamey,it teaches a way of life called chan wu yi ,witch ecompases religion-medicine -wushu ,www.shaolinwugulun.com
this is my goal, to live a healthy happy way of life.
before i fell off the wagon i was practicing shaolin qi gong,and begining xinyi chuan,and im very much into tibetan budhisim as well as taoisim.
what i need to begin doing according to the wugulun achademey is start getting up at 5AM,they start training then, most students run,so i have a VERY steep hill outside my building that i can only slightly jog up 5 times and then im done,i do have a community gym no freeweights unfortunatley, their to expensive for me to buy,and i have a jumprope,also a mt.bike.
ive done rigorous training before for races, but now i have back injuries and a reconstructed knee and fibromyagia, and a "chemical imbalance" and ill tell you its a friggin different ball game.
i guess i just need more people like me to have support, i usually dont ask for help on anything but i beleive alcahol is keeping me down.
tommorow im gonna try to wake up at 5 and jog,mabey if i feel all right ill try some qi gong.
wish me luck haha.

awesome,you are doing great,keep that motivation high bro,one step at a time...maybe mixing up the time you spend walking a bit,could be time to start adding some other exercises to your routine,maybe one day with a shorter walk,but carry 10 lbs with you,like a gallon jug of water,do some curls with it as you walk,something like that
keep on truckin dude!!good luck!! like the commercials say..just do it!! bring that discipline back into your life!!
if you have done it before,you know how much benefit it will bring to your life,and it will help you kick that demon booze or at least learn to moderate your consumptiongood luck dude!!
the first step is really deciding to do it!
little further east i think! lol

uclefishsticks,my lungs wont allow me to carry any more than i'm already packin..hehehe..think this week i'm gonna go out every 36 hours and see if i can do that on a regular basis..from what i've learned it all boils down to stress and then rest to get stronger...this monday mornin makes 20 days and i can tell a difference when i walk up the hills..next spring i'll get a bike..
