Weekly Weigh-In (Week 87)

Sunday once again and time for my weekly update post.

Tough week this week. On my hill workout Tuesday I did something to my knee, and as a result when I tried to go out Wednesday for my next run I had to bail on it pretty quickly due to some pain. Been taking it easy on the running this week as a result, gonna get back into it starting tomorrow and work my way back up to a higher volume than I was at before to help accelerate my progress toward my half-marathon. Related to this I'm planning on trying to push myself toward more strength work to help prevent injuries like this in the future.

After having gotten a bit stir crazy Friday because I had to skip my run I decided I needed to do something active and so I hopped up off the couch and did some sets to failure of squats, pushups, and situps. Planning on turning that into a regular occurrence on my days off from work, though probably replacing the situps with pullups because I hate situps and want to get better at pullups. So good odds I may be picking up a pullup bar in the near future to add to our apartment.

Been experimenting with my new dehydrator, currently sitting on some apples I dehydrated and then pasteurized, some I didn't, and some I dipped in ascorbic acid, will have to see soon how the various treatments have impacted the apple rings.

That's about it for now, will report back soon with progress on how my changes are going. For now though, what's the scale have to say today? 209, down a pound from last week. Staying right around where I want to be for now. So until next week, keep being the you you want to be.
