Crickey!
Day 100 is getting real close!

Unfortunately Day 99 was a bit of a miss since I spent way too much time adulting.

Instead of doing one trillion pull ups, I had to like, you know, mow the lawn... like a grown up, or like a kid earning pocket money. I think I've mentioned before that we have a huge property now... it's 5 acres of foresty goodness, but we've only ever lived in apartments and townhouses before, so it's been decades since I've had to cut a grass.

In the 10 months we've been here, we honestly haven't had to do much maintenance at all... we had a party last November and got some dudes in to clean up and mow and stuff... so I was looking to get some similar dudes in, but they all wanted to come in and do quotes and convince us to set up a regular thing... so I pretty much just cracked it and bought a manly lawnmower of manliness.

Which then took me an hour to assemble... instructions these days are so bad. I had to choose between the way too detailed safety information, or the way too brief no-word pictorial instructions which are made for all the different models. So weird.

Annnnyyyyyyyway, to cut a boring story short... once I put the thing together using 50% guessing and 50% confusion, and then mowed all the grasses, I was completely and utterly beat. Butttt... I did some pull ups anway because no adulting is going to beat this little ninja.

Got the KMs up for the day though... nice job yardwork.

At lunchtime I smashed out my Titan Trial exercises again... I did the skipping portion in the sunshine, it was so good!
After all my lawn-care I did 3 sets of my Tendonitis Strengthening exercises instead of my usual 5 sets... the tendonitis was not happy and I didn't want to strain it for Day 100.

That saying of 'Don't stop when you're tired, stop when you're finished' kept me going today.... it's super true.
