111 posts into this f*cker and I still haven't deadlifted 500lbs.

This is mainly because I've been detracted and keep pursuing other objectives, whether they be career, academic, or other fitness goals.

Doing squats tomorrow night, a solid step in the right direction toward a 500lb deadlift.

Also running in the morning.

Running does nothing to advance me toward my deadlift, probably acts as an impediment due to opportunity cost.
However, my mood is elevated the whole day after I run. In addition, there's something to be said for having a ticker that won't run crap-out before my 60th birthday.
