Haven't lifted weights in ages but the yoga has been consistent. Just as important, I've been eating more and cooking at home to get in the calories and protein that have been lacking for a long time. That's the biggest improvement for me mentally.
First half of the month wasn't very healthy - no yoga or weightlifting after a rollercoaster of travel last month. But I'm back on the saddle and made some decent gains. I cleaned up the formatting of these GTD chapters too - been watching a lot
Getting back into weightlifting has been rewarding, physically and mentally. Figuring out a good game plan for my career in the future - not sure if it'll work, but it feels right for me and it'll have value in the world over the next ten years.
This was a lazy month for me - 10 yoga sessions and 10 lifts. It is what it is, but I'm grateful to see the dividends from consistent weightlifting. My body hurts like hell but it's a good kind of hurt, the one you only get

GTD #24 Pretty meh month training wise. Barely ran, didn't do as much yoga as I would like, and fell off the wagon. But after these last few months of being on the road, I decided to throw myself back into work. It's been rewarding, and
Back in the saddle. Not a crazy amount of runs, not a crazy amount of distance, but I'm committed to the work and pushing forward. I've been inspired by the work of Jermaine Jones in Australia who is running 34 marathons in 34 days to raise money for mental health charities.
