OutdoorsVT 2-13-09

Man, getting old sucks.

On top of it, I've let myself go and now I find myself way out of shape and it's hurting my outdoor pursuits.

This is mostly about weight as I'm in pretty decent shape considering my size. Well, as good a shape as a guy with a gut my size can be in.

It doesn't stop my outdoor pursuits. I still hit the trail, but there's no denying I could go faster and farther if I wasn't lugging along the extra poundage.

I'm getting old. When I was hauling around 225 pounds at 30, it wasn't as big a deal. But I'll be 42 in a month and 225 is a long-gone fond memory.

So I've decided to do something about it.
