Cycling- 22 miles, 1:25:44

Left ankle feels stiff along with left calf.
Probably need new shoes, current pair are a bit worn out.

Also need more fruit. Out of bananas.

Hi there, new people!
There are certainly a bunch of you.

I’m Chris, and to make this shorter than it needs to be, I will direct you new followers to my about me. It’s amusing, and I hope you’ll get a good laugh out of it along with getting a feel for the person who I am. 
I’m not here often enough, I tend to check Tumblr during breakfast and dinner, if I’m eating alone, on my kindle or my tablet, and those odd, rare times, like this, when I’m on my desktop, I figure I should post something.

And update on my recent, however long it’s been since I’ve updated, I’m currently running around 10-13 miles every other day, the days in between are being used to cycle then lift weights. I get to swim on weekends and random nights, like tonight, I get to change up my workout by practicing with some friends a little swordsmanship.

Also, I have a dear friend, who isn’t a fitblogger but a writer, who is putting together a series in which I’m kind of the inspiration for one of the characters. I mention this because the character eventually gets this helmet that’s shaped like a tea pot, and one of the more physically exhausting activities I’ve been devoting time to lately has been working at a smithy and trying to actually make a working version of this helmet.
It’s both tiring and frustrating as I bang away at the metal and my wallet with every version.
I’ll eventually put up picture, when I have something of note.

I’m having issues logging in. Just curious if I’m the only one. 

Off to work out, then I may post a video while dinner is cooking.
OH! And TMI Tuesday. Ask me stuff. Doesn’t even have to be fit related.
I kind of know a little about everything. I blame it on my 3 books a week diet.

For instance, off the top of my head I can tell you the transitional temperature of every element between 1 and 86, minus 57-71, or give you the ingredients of Kraft cheese in a can off the top of my head…because I’m weird like that.

Ask away! 

Most of my dinners are vegan lately. I didn’t intend it to. I think I mentioned this somewhere else.
Lentils or veggie burgers or curry, minus the meat, I’m eating better.

I’m not saying I mind, it was just a curious thing, since those of you who know me know I love eating meat. It’s a thing.

Why am I still awake? Fixing computer. I will somehow pull off a miracle and fix a broken, possibly burned out CPU.

I am a shirtless, geeky god of tech!

Oh, and tomorrow is a workout day. Anyone want to give me something different to do? Make me a routine? I promise to do it.

Oh, and what does Fitspo mean?
