This morning was pushups and situps: 40/30/30/20/20 and 40/30/30/30. The last was significantly separated, hence 30 rather than 20.

I have to be more vigilant about eating back what I burn off. The temptation is there, especially after staring at a computer screen all damn day.

The gym I went to today has three Concept2s, but the one equipped with the PM4 computer was messed up. Thus, no interactive HRM, so I had to use my Forerunner. I started thinking this was going to easy in the first 500m, and then realized just how ambitious my pace actually was after not erging in a long, long time. The last 500m was pure suck.

I followed with some easy wogging to see what parts of Fort Knox had become ghost towns after the departure of the Armor Center and School.  The most significant ghost town is the old Disney Barracks area, or what was more popularly called "Disneyland" when it was occupied by the 1st Armor Training Brigade. I started and stopped the run at the gym next to where I had been some 20 years ago as a cadet, attached to Company B, 1st Battalion, 70th Armor Combined Arms Task Force. Man, do I feel old. I took a PT test in the summer of 1993, and ran a 11:59 two-mile run. Can't do that anymore, and I'm not 21 anymore either.
