Follow along through the challenges of fatherhood and fitness

Follow me as I grow as a father, continue to improve my fitness, and hopefully continue losing weight towards my goal of 60lbs (10lbs to go! 8.25.12).

I never set out to be overweight but I love beer, wine, scotch, and all sorts of terrible food. I didn't choose to get out of shape it just sort of happened. All that changed when I found out my wife was pregnant in December 2010. I decided it was time to set myself up to be a fitdad not a fatdad.

No one ever said it would be easy though. Dealing with a newborn and trying to continue exercising as well as being there for my wife as her husband and friend. As our son gets older and our family grows what impact will that have on my fitness and diet? Stay tuned to find out! Subscribe via email, or add me to your reader.

Day 38, Official Streak End.

Today is the day, we have reached 38 consecutive days of running at least one mile.  Since the U.S. is so excited for us there will be fireworks shows all around the states supporting the runners world run streak....

Oh, wait, no.  Today is the 4th of July, those fireworks are celebrating the birth of this great country!

Today I chose to do a treadmill run because I had Noah while Christine was at spin class.  He went down for a nap around 9 a.m.  I ran for 4.7 miles this morning, was shooting for 5 miles but he started rousing in the crib and I didn't want to push my luck.

I hope everyone enjoys the holiday today be safe.

Happy Fourth of July!
