Craig's PCT Planner: Welcome Nerd Fitness: Helping You Lose Weight, Get Stronger, Live Better. I received an email a few months back from a NF reader that made me smile: “I am going back to square one. I noticed the only habit that I changed and stuck with was drinking tons of water. Have you ever started playing a game and get a few hours in and go “man I wish I knew these controls/tips from the beginning”? I’m restarting my journey now that I have a better idea of the controls.” This resonated with me, because when I first played EverQuest (similar to World of Warcraft), the first character I created was terrible. When I started again playing as a new character, I FLEW through the first 30 levels: I understood the controls, how the game worked, and what needed to get done; it was much easier the second time through! The same is true for any boss battle you first encounter in any game. Getting in shape is no different. Each time you start over, you’re getting closer to that point of making things stick.

Mexico - The Underground Paradise of Rio&Secreto We have all visited caves, I have many. But, I admit I had never experienced anything like this before. Rio Secreto is a huge system of caves near to Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Wetsuits on, right from the start as you go into one of the many entrances hidden in the jungle the eyes and senses are hit with pure natural beauty that cannot be seen hardly anywhere on earth. The care taken by the owners and guides to ensure it stays pure for future generations is a great thing to see. Sometimes you are walking, sometimes ducking down, sometimes swimming/floating through the pure clear water. Even as I write this with all fresh in my mind I feel I should pinch myself to prove I actually saw and experienced what I did.

Favorite Run - Map Running Routes and Keep a Running Log About My Helmet My "Panache" is a plastic eagle which probably began life at the top of a small flag pole. It is a road find. It is held on to my new Giro helmet by a plastic zip tie. This is a marvelous conversation piece, and has broken the ice on a great many contacts with strangers. Independent minded. As you can see by the snow on the road and in my beard, this was a cold winter's commute. The helmet itself is an early Bell Image, which I painted red because that's my favorite color. While I am not generally fond of displaying corporate logos on myself, I have a high regard for Bell, so after I painted the helmet I put a new Bell sticker on it...but I used a teeny-weeny one that came with a model car kit somebody gave my son.
