After that I integrated a ton more cardio and just try to maintain a good balance of strength and endurance that will hopefully carry me into middle age like a boss (and hopefully injury free). This is where I'm headed. I think I'm nearly as strong as I'll be, or will try to be. Although I'd like to stay about this. Up the cardio and be done killing myself every week. Oh, and around that time, someone invited me to a 5k run. I did it cold because I was "in shape." Well, I did it, but I felt like complete shit during/afterward. That was unacceptable and a little scary considering I started my fitness life running pretty effectively. I felt heavy, I felt slow and I was probably headed toward unhealthy IMO. Anyway, back to shitfest. My goal is to be in sub 2 hour half marathon shape for the rest of my life. My goal is to be able to run a 1/2 marathon sub 2 hr ONCE 
You will...next race I bet.

Same here. I'm still about 90% of my max strength, but much lighter/faster. I can still put up some solid numbers in my lifts and then go for an 8 mile run after or play a full hockey game and piss people off because I'm "that guy" who doesn't gas.

Let's rub bellies.
But seriously, that's how to do it.
I think a lot of lifters think they're going to lose all this strength immediately upon getting into cardio. They won't. Sure, they'll lose that 10% or whatever, but they'll also be able to see their abs and ride a 100 mile bike race, go to sleep, and get up and do it again the next day lol testimonial.

I called ME a bitch.
I did...I managed 300 the week before and felt good.
I was wrong. I rocked forward just enough to fail.
Working weight 5x5 squat is 275.

Does it count when your own kids do something that makes you want to kill them and you decide not to?

Last night as I was finishing my pullup sets at the park I daydreamed I was hanging on for life on the side of a cliff...Wayne lay on the ground below, dead as a baby crushed by a door mule kicked by Art while Johnso had fainted jogging for help. Hey fucko, that was a long time ago. I'll run your shit ragged and do burpies on your old lady afterward.
I didn't say WHY you fainted. Maybe as you were jogging you saw OB1 and he actually IS 5'10".

Plus, a half marathon isn't that far.
