2026: MeditationsOnMortality-10
October 1-31, 2026: I am now 3501 Days (approximately: 9 Years, 6 Month, 1 Days inclusive) on my workout streak (9APR2017).
Just to clarify (Sticky!): Over the period above, my workout streak refers to the fact that is that I have manage to do something physical each and everyday regardless of how I feel or where I am to maintain my fitness. I always do my Dailies and in addition - run, walk, row, cycle but usually run and walk, and depending on the day, I lift - upper body, lower body, or some type of hybrid. This is my long term program and I have been at it now religiously since around 2015, but in earnest since April-May of 2017.
I am writing this on the 1st day of November: It is now 14:16 and I have been using most of the day so far to get caught up and prep for the coming days. Each month at this time I tell myself that I am going to pare this process down to make it less of a strain, but it never happens. I absolutely will press to get make a dent in my approach this month. Generally the month has been okay really, but I feel as though it has been a bit of sideways.
AREA 1:
Body:
**Routine (B+): Stasis. No changes here. I am getting some good walks in and with the heat not really an issue, they have been quite pleasant. I hope to get more mornings in. I am not really looking forward to the cold though. I have also not been able to incorporate as much AI as I would like, but that remains a work in progress.
**Physical Overall (A-)
- Injuries/Aches (B+): I went back down from A- because the tightness in my left glute still remains and does not seem to be meaningfully go away. The right elbow has relented a bit, in fact I lifted and entire session with my brace last week ending this month. Shoulders are generally feeling fine, but
- Left Pinky - I am gonna take this out for next month, because it is there but really not noticeable - probably a chronic lull at this point.
- Right Shoulder - I am gonna remove this because with the slingshot, I am really not having an issue.
- Right Elbow - Intensity varies still. As mentioned above, I was able to workout without brace, but it sort of flared when I pushed it too much. I will keep it here for the meantime, because it is still bugging me.
- Right Wrist - I am gonna remove this. It is not bothering me anymore
- Lower Back (Right) - This flared back up in recent weeks, so it stays here.
- Left Hamstring (left) - Probably the most problematic right now. It is not as bad in times past, but it is a constant right now.
- Lifting (B+): This past month was not fun at all. I had to come off Creatine and it has really impacted how much I can lift and my recovery. I have been able to pull my deadlifts but my squats have become quite challenging. I don't retest for another couple month before I can start back my Creatine, so I am going to have to pull back and also see my kidney specialist. For right now I am focusing on staying injury free and being smart in the gym.
**Tracked Metrics (A):
- Activities (A): This was a really good month all around. I got in good metric across all my activities. I was able to also complete all my Garmin Challenges.
- Sleep (A): I was in the pocket for this month hitting my 90% mark for total sleep time and subscore. I have to just be thankful for that and try my best to maintain it.
**Supplements: No Change: 2x Berberine with meals, Psyllium Husk (fiber), multi-vitamins, B-complex and Magnesium, Lipo NR, Lipomizen , Curcumin, Creatine (10mg).
**Diet: Change: Recent blood work showed increased AIC to 5.9. I am now cutting out extra carbs, pull back on the cakes and pasteries and just being smart about what I am eating, especially just before bed. Salad and chicken continue to drive the bus; pork chops is making its mark as well. My focus remains - (From a previous entry: The big focus this year once again is on A1c, kidney health, prostate health, cardio health, muscle gain and weight maintenance). I running out of Beet Root powder so I will have to get some more. I think I will have to acknowledge the fact I did not get rid of the batch from my last buy and not repeat it. I believe I have gotten some good results and if nothing else it is helping me to sweeten my coffee.
Biomarkers/Medical Check:
- Urology: NTR
- Sleep: NTR
- Neurology: NTR.
- Labs: Need to get re-labs to test Crestor. My care team is useless to me. Just my personal opinion.
Spanish/Chess:
**Spanish (A): My streak on Duolingo (1544 Day) 9AUG2022 and score is at 104 now. This continue to trend of completing a section per month but I am capable and should do more. My streak on Drops (1316 Days). My interest in Drops as significantly waned. I have completed all the words and it is really not intuitive as to how you could create quizes or other forms of challenges. After reaching out to the company, I was not satisfied with their response, so it is a part of my routine, but less so.
*Reading/Listening: I manage to finished only 3 book in October - one less than September but way down from August. The big reason is because I got started on a long read titled - Slouching to Utopia by Bradford DeLong. It is a 20+ hour listen and very dense. The information is very good, so I do want to get through it. I was considering taking on Tolstoy's War and Peace before year's end but now I think I will need a break from long listens.

AREA 2:
Financials:
Inflation: 3.3% ; Iran related (no change)
Gas Price: >$400 ; Iran related (no change)
Markets: Inflation has not eased but honestly our portfolio has not really been suffering that much (currently +8.60% YTD and +1.10% (1-month) as of 1.OCT.2026
Socio/Political:
US: Govt - The Mid-Terms are just days away - 4 day in fact. It appears to be a blue wave coming (fingers crossed) .
US: Military - There is not much now, but everyone is expecting that to change after the mids.
US: AI - Anthropic files to public soon. I am sure I am gonna try and get some stock.
World 1: US-Iran - Current pause, but expecting this to change soon.
World 1: Israel-Hamas / Israel-Lebanon: Slight lull. Israel still active in Palestine.
World 3: Ukraine-Russia war continues. Same sh*t different day. White people killing each other. No real update; low grade boil.
AREA 3:
DareBee
Still have not missed a day of Daily Dare - yup; not a one.
(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.
