Posted on 24 November 2012.
In general I feel o k., but not buzzing with energy to go for walks or exercise. I am still eating well and make an effort to eat a lot to try to keep my weight up. I do have some strange sensations in the body, or the occasional twinge, but so far so good. I [...]

Alfred Updates – #2
Posted on 21 November 2012.
I sent Alfred a short note to wish him a happy birthday, though I said, I don’t really celebrate anything and didn’t know if he did. I also encouraged him to take the anti-nausea pills whether or not he initially had it because some others I read about said it’s much better to do so [...]

Fast Up the Mountain Steps
Posted on 08 June 2012.
Though I ran pretty fast (for me) yesterday, I thought I’d try a quick one up the mountain steps today and see how I did. Alfred came with me and he is still recovering from his hernia operation – so he went slowly up and I took off fast. By the halfway point I clocked [...]

Stair and Running Workouts Update
Posted on 07 June 2012.
Well, I’ve slacked off here a bit – this blog was never meant to be a full-time blog, though I do love writing about what I’m doing on the stairs and with other exercise, it isn’t really a focus. Writing books is much more my focus at the moment. I’ve been carrying up 6-7 liters [...]

Changing Up the Speed Workouts
Posted on 23 May 2012.
I did a video about my workout today – below: I fear that I’m not getting any faster by sprinting up the steps as I’ve been doing with my latest speed workouts on the mountain staircase. I weigh 12 pounds less than I do when I went up in 12:01, about 3 years ago. Recently [...]
