100 days of trying to train every day

This entry is part 1 of 104 in the series 100 Days of Training (2017)

I've recently returned home inspired to up my training. In recent months, I've been generally trying to do something-- some sort of activity, even just a good long walk-- every day. So I'm going to try to do 100 consequtive days of getting in a good training session- something. anything. With a public post to keep me honest and on track.

Fell off many times, but remembering Stephane’s advice each time: “Go easy on yourself and simply get back on.” Exhaustion, anger, shaking, soaked in sweat, eternity. #artdudeplacement

Day 8/100 – More running

This entry is part 9 of 104 in the series 100 Days of Training (2017)

It is extremely helpful to have a training partner… neither of us felt motivated to run, until we guilted each other into it. Not much of a run, but part of this project is to have “no zero days”; no days where I do nothing in terms of training. #artdudeplacement http://constantine.name/100days
