getting started

I had to go to the doctors for this rash under my arm. Found out it could be tied to the diabetes and me not keeping better control of it. My A1c was 9.5 way to high. My doctor has given me 2 months to get it moving in the right direction so no time like the present to get a fitness program going. I have been able to hit the weights the last 2 days mainly light weight to get my muscles used to it. Cardio has been a little more difficult with work conflicts cutting my time short. I was able to go swimming with the kids last night and feel I got a little cardio doing that. Today I worked with the SRT at the Swanson Tactical center. A lot of on my feet moving for 12 hours and I feel pretty tired so I must have done something. I am excited to do this and will write as often as I can. Love you guys! Just Run! Bill

We need to get that A1C back in line. Glad you got in some workouts. I like the pool. Your mom bought a Aqua belt which allows her to walk or jog in the water. Gunnison pool also has them and I tried one out Wed and they work great. We just keep going from end to end for 1 hr. I imagine it's fun with the kids. I remember how much fun it was with you guys. Keep up the good work and please keep posting when you can. love ya dad

Hey your back!! It's good to have you posting over here again so I (the government) can keep tabs on you! LMAO!! I am very excited to have us all working out together now. I think it will really help with the motivation for all of us. Those 12 hour days can suck pretty bad, I know because that is all we work now and probably until I leave this base. On my work days I work out when I get off because I know I won't do it when I wake up. I just don't have the time if I want to see my family. But it is easier to work out when I get off at 7am because Heather and the girls are still asleep. When I am off I get my runs in at night which is nice to switch it up a little bit. Just keep at it Brother. A little bit here and a little bit there. I know it gets frustrating not having enough time but 15 minutes of working out is better than nothing. And we will help keep you motivated to stay with it. I can't believe how much the blogging helps with motivation because I can read Dad's blog when I am feeling less than enthusiastic about working out and it helps me get off my butt and work out. Love ya man!!
