I really bulked up this winter with no riding/ running/hiking and few colds put out of commision Jan-Feb. I've been paying dearly for it this spring, but the body is repsonding well to the surge of activity lately. Just want to get in on the process here to get back to real fitness.

Weighed in at 187 in late December, but likely tipped 191-193 during the peak of inactivity this winter. I'm 5-11.

Recent updates, started regularly commuting to work ~ only 5 miles per day.
Picked up 60-150 miles per week since the group rides started back. Also found a neighbohood club that has regular Saturday rides of 65 miles. But Has 3 or 4 tough week day rides that the vary. Strong group.

Current weight check 181.

goals:
July 4th 50min 10K
July 26 Half Dome Accent ~16 mile hike
July 29 Mt Whitney Accent ~ 22 mile hike to 14500 ft. 6100 ft accent
Mid August - Enter first Cat 5 Criterium Race. To gain race experience, but would like to really improve my fitness but this time.

Goal weight 165 -170

Next is fine tuning the food intake. Eating less seems to have worked so far but as I pick up the miles and effort I'll need to experiment with better choices. It will be a sacrifice of convenience and nutrition.
