saturday food

breakfast @ mcdonald's:
burrito
hashbrowns
orange juice

and thus begins the spiraling descent into army food for the following 2 weeks... while doing my annual army reserve training at fort hood, tx.

not even going to blog the details of the food we ate.  it was a mixed bag of completely crap food and somewhat healthy crap food.  lot's of drinking too.  it's harder to be healthy in the army than in the civilian world, imho.

during the last two weeks, i had only two unit-wide group workouts.

first:
cd1, and 4 for the core.

followed by:
cd1, and an AGR.  i got to lead CD1, which was kinda cool.

i also had on my time:
running day, about 2.5 miles
back and bi's
chest and tri's
zumba
swimming

if you include all of our field marches, that is sorta like low-impact PT.  i would only mention it because it was >100 degrees, and we definitely got a good sweat from it.  not sure it was healthy though...

glad to be home where it's 100x easier to be healthy.
