July 1 2021: I am now 1549 Days and still have not missed a day of workout

Can't really even say anything about June, it just flew by so fast - damn!  Spent most of the time preparing with the little one to leave - bittersweet.   Now here I am writing near the end of July, as August is around the corner, I am afraid I may have waited too long to pull anything from the previous month into this writing.  At any rate, I will just have to go with what I can cough up.

Efforts continue in preparation for UF, so the little one is just in preparation mode.  We provided her a methodology to control her day as she heads out.  I am not totally convinced that she will take it on, but at least she has an example to work from.

Socio-politically, there is much to harp on, but I won't.  It is just pointless to be honest.  Suffice it to say - efforts continue ton eroding access to democracy by one side. 

More interesting or deadly, is the fact that the same side has now put the country in the grips of a resurgence of the pandemic virus.  After months of telling people to blow off the vaccine, a more virulent strain is now sweeping the country and promises to kill a lot of people.  Honestly, my only worry is that a breakthrough from the current strain my occur, thereby putting prudent patriots in danger.  As long as the vaccinated stays safe, I am totally fine with the unmoved being unmoved.

Darebee continues to hold me down.  I just completed I believe my final program of the DB programs.  I start redoing past ones next month.  After completing Pete's plan, I have just started a random row each day.  Next month I will be streamlining on the erg, since this month was focus on 30 minute runs on the treadmill.   

(Kept from previous foreword) - Additionally, I have added a couple layers of complexity or demand to my workout.  First, I am religiously sticking to DareBee and the Daily Dare; I am also, keeping the preliminaries.  Second, I have added a consecutive component - so, starting with the end of IronBorn (9 April 2017), I have worked consecutively.  I intend to push for 60 straight day, then see if I can get to 90.  So far I am enjoying it and my body seems to be rising to the occasion.  I caught the flu a few day before the end of the last phase (around May 2017) - I worked through it and was back up in only a couple of days.  It appears pushing through and forcing my body to continue working, I was able to push the flu out of my way.  I am also continuing my virtual push to OKC via Benton.  I am really enjoying that but I will have to pick up the mileage here in the next phase as I am running out of time. Keep leaning forward.
