Kdjohn: Physical Philosophy & Iron Insights

@mr.v3lv3t it’s definitely one of those programs that you get half way through and think, “What have I done?”

@jshaving do it, man! Then I’ll have some who can relate to my suffering. I tried the 10k swing challenge but stopped after a couple weeks; wasn’t great for my back and it wasn’t supporting my goals at the time. But give it a go.

@Frank_C I wanted to discuss this but didn’t want to clog up the log.

I definitely agree with that statement. People sometimes forget that beyond the horrific things that LEOs see, dealing with people all day is exhausting. Law enforcement is, to an extent, a “customer service” job (as is security to an extent, in my case); trying to maintain your composure and professionalism while people are rude to you constantly is super draining. When you have a family life on top of all that, it adds a whole host of other circumstances that sometimes make it fee like you can never shut off and wind down.

I know for myself some nights it takes a lot of self control not to snap at my wife when she asks for XYZ right when I get home after a 12 hour day of fighting shop lifters and chasing away screaming bums/drunks.

Running

  • 15 minutes, didn’t check distance

Notes:

  • Had to keep it short today. Also, I’ve never had burn/pump in my legs from steady-state running before. I think my legs were just so shot from yesterday. Combined with a less than stellar sleep last night and nutrition the day before, my legs just weren’t ready for a long run.
