Thanks. This one felt pretty good. Time usually slows down for me under a heavy load but this one surprised me. Still gotta add 5 next week for that nice round number.

stalking your training again...but i have to say 500 is an awesome PR milestone and im jealous. hell yeat dude nice work.

ps i gotta figure out how to put multiple vids together and have background music like that.

Always appreciate the encouragement. Now that I'm hitting some decent numbers I'll probably do something stupid and heretical like go on a cut and screw it all up. I'd really like to lose about 30 pounds and think I need to for my health.

I use Google photos on my phone to edit the clips and combine them into a highlight reel. YouTube has an option to add sound (music) when you upload a short video. YouTube sometimes flags my videos for copyright due to the music in the background--this gets around that.
