I'm getting into decent elk hunting shape!

Last year I started exercising early. Jan.

This year I just kinda never stopped. Mostly jogging now and cycling. Yesterday I ran three miles very quickly (for me). I bet my first mile was a eight minute mile. I didn't time it so I could be delusional. I'll ride my bike tonight about 20 miles to rest my knee. Co workers are mentioning my weight loss. I guess it is noticeable now. I just need to eat less:). I'm a shoveler.

I hope I draw an elk tag. My one friend in our group goes to church to pray for a tag. Haha

Keep on shoveling, nothing wrong with that. Keeps you stronger. Just make sure six days a week you shovel good grub.

Keep up that running but take breaks. One day I felt great and hit my first ever hour mark and kept going for another 30-40 minutes. My knees seriously never quite lost the small grating sound I developed shortly after.

It really hasn't affected me, but I learned my lesson.
