Because he thought they had his Oreos.
Why did Paleo Man hunt Mastadons?
Because he thought they had his Oreos.
Why did Paleo Man hunt Sabre Tooth Tigers?
Because he thought they had his Oreos.
Why did Paleo Man hunt Pterydactyls?

Thank God Paleo Man had Diet Coke!
Now if he had only had pop tarts.....

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Run: 6 miles in the park by Baldwin Wallace, 53.5 minutes (just under a 9 min pace), I felt awful the first half. Stopped to stretch at the turn-around and felt better on the second half, but still not great. I'm getting frustrated with my running. I wish I could feel good when I run like I used to.

Climb: bouldered with Brad for 1-1/2 hours. Did all of our problems at LifeTime (they're getting too easy, I need to set some harder stuff).

What's life without Oreos?

Awsome WOD Tim! I can't do 250 squats in 20 miutes.

Frustrated with running?
Get on the da*mn bike, there is a triathlon in 6 weeks!!!!!!
You are swimming and running well beyond last year's performance.
But biking????????
Okay, that's the last I'm going to say about that.
(I get to blame my testiness on Paleo)

Okay, something constructive on running.
Intensity.
You have plenty of volume, but no intensity.
Remember how you switched over from all distance swimming to doing 20x50m?
Now it's time to start doing 400s while running.
Once a week, or once every fourth workout:
1 mile warmup
4 x (400 yards fast (and I mean lose your breath fast), 400 yards slow or walking))
1 mile cooldown
That'll bust you out of the rut (if it doesn't kill you!)

Jason PR? Holy Cow.
And yes Paleo man definietly had Diet Coke.
He had big vats of it. He swam in it, drank it, and made cave art with it.
Then, we he had killed something and its blood was messing up the cave, he cleaned up the blood with it. It was a multi-use tool for Paleo man. Trust me. He couldn't have lived without it.

Yesterday's exercise for Paleo-Aspirant....
45 minutes trail walking at CVNP on unevern dirt and rooty trails using trekking poles. Excellent practice for hiking into the NRG or the RRG or to Tres Piedras in Taos (where I'm going in June).

Also,
11 routes at KC, including multiple laps on some for endurance.
Feel very confident about doing some 10s at the NRG this weekend.
Weather permitting will be at Tatoo Wall at Sandstonia on Saturday (with my guide/mentor) and Lower Meadows (with a friend) on Sunday.
(Maybe an 11????? Dare to dream????)

The first Paleo weigh-in is tomorrow morning.
If that scale doesn't show less than it did last Friday, you will both hear the screaming and throwing of things and gnashing of teeth......

Thursday May 6, 2010 (51 weeks after hip resurfacing)

Here is today's x-ray.

A perfect score on the prosthetic.:D

A not so perfect score on the "natural" hip, check out the bottom of the joint....:ranting2:

REST DAY

Do you know why Paleo man had such a pronounced brow?

From constantly banging his head against the cave wall to try to get rid of the headache of eating Paleo.

and the promised photo....

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
 

An hour of bouldering today. Not much energy.

Does this mean another surgury? You have come so far...
