You could have made the change 10 years ago or ten years in the future. You made the change now. Don't dwell on what could have been. It's the now that matters.

Happy birthday, one day early. You're still a baby at 34.

I dont dwell. I just wonder how my life would have changed if I had done all this earlier. But you are 100% correct- it is the here and now that matters.

Bah- not a baby at 34. When does that shift happen? When do you stop being young to people and become 'middle age'?

As I found out a few months ago, you are still a baby till you are 40. Then you are old.

Middle Aged happens when you hit the middle of your life. I plan on living till 100, at least, so that would be 50 for me. I don't think you're middle aged, yet. that would put you to 68 at RIP.

Hmmm . . . I think I'll hold off on reaching middle age until 55 or so . . .

Yes, yes, I am in the same boat but I prefer to remain optimistic. Here's to 110!! Y'know, my Nana is in her mid-80s and the woman gets around as well as I do. I so hope I am like that at her age. Quite remarkable, really.

My grandfather is 88 and still going pretty strong. However my other grandfather passed at 73.

Great dichotomy in my family. My mother's side lives for a long time, my father's is more average.

I'm kind of an orphan so I've already got things going against me . . . all the more reason to get healthy.

My one grandmother that is still alive is 98 and still shoots below 45 in 9 holes of golf. Something that I've never done. My other grandmother died two months before she turned 90. My one grandfather lived till 91 and the other died at 81, but he smoked from the time he was 13 till his first heart attack at 59. He still lived 22 years after that, so I think I got some longevity in these genes.

Maybe, maybe not. I just started the bees last year, so I think it's doubtful.

I was able to run again today.
I am so frickin happy that I was able to run. I have not really been able to for several weeks now. I was able to do 5 miles on the path around my gym in 42:23. This is not too far off what I was doing when I needed to stop because of my groin. I am going to give my groin a few days off- still not squatting of any type until next week- and not run until probably next week. But I was able to! With no more pain than one would expect from running after a lay off like that. I stretched for 10-15 minutes after just to make sure I was not going to re-injure it again because of improper stretching.

I am pleased.

Excellent job, Brian. Real good that you were able to do five miles and at a good time, even after all that time off. Way to go.

Thank you Trops. I have been doing a lot of other cardio but running has always been my favorite. It really upset me when I was not able to. I need to ease back into it slowly this time.
