Where do you hike in cades cove? The fastest trail up to Rocky Top starts at the campground there.

Have family from new York here for the game so it was more an easy walk than a hike. Started at the ticket booth and went to Oliver cabin then to the burial place and back. Didn’t turn off the time while looking at the cabin or site seeing lol

Then jumped out of the car and walked up the mountain to the cabin.
1/2 mile 240 elevation change

Stumbled off the step stool while changing out some exterior electric cable and pulled something in my thigh. This is going to interrupt my cycling.

11 miles again this morning. These cool mornings are spoiling me. 1:22 mins and some change.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Walk a mile, run 3, walk it off.
All while taking to my Brother from New York.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Now let’s go to Knoxville and watch some football

Sunday afternoon workout was a good one.

 

[Orangesmokey]

5K on the tread this morning. I was able to get my time down to 21:35 this morning.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Alright. So I’m going to get back in running shape for the cow harbor 10k in New York next year.
I was regularly at a 9 minute pace for 5 miles last year.
Mike died and so did my motivation. I’ve run maybe 4 times since then. Started back Saturday on vacation. This is my second trip out. Gabby and Gus went with me.
Man I’m slow, old and fat.

Seventeen weeks into my walking program. Missed three days this week. Average steps per day for 17 weeks = 14,931.

5k ruck with Nora after work. The terrain was a little rough but a beautiful evening and sunset over the water.

Hard to move too quickly with a dog, an extra 20#, and lots of roots and rocks...

Did you utilize the fireman's carry?

 

[Hunter10139]

Light Tuesday night because of a busy evening and a late start. I hit the most important lifts to me

 

[Orangesmokey]

4 miles on the tread this morning. Increasing speed each mile till mile four. From 3 to 4 increase speed each tenth of a mile till completed.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Did you utilize the fireman's carry?

No he’s a little fellow so he just rode on my shoulders like a kid.
Heated vinyasa yesterday.
I almost died

Tin when you ride do you go for distance or time or just kind of whatever you are feeling that day?

Whatever I’m feeling. Keep in mind that I’m back on the bike since June, after an 8 month hiatus during cancer treatment. The past three months, most of my rides have been training rides, with a few exploring rides. I’m working my way towards longer distances in the future.

Glad to hear you're making a great recovery!

That's awesome to hear that you are healing

60 min Orange Theory class this morning. Tough weight floor part of class today

This may sound like a dumb question, but anyone have advice on learning to enjoy doing legs? I'm tall-ish and lean, and I've always hated squats, DL, etc. I wish I had a nice leg press rack, but I'm really out of room to add one in the gym. I do cycle and ruck now, but those aren't really going to build muscle mass, I don't think.
