I'm alive!
I took a week off as my mental state was really nut low, depressed AF and really wanting to quit this challenge. Didn't play/watch a single hand for a full week. Played 2h of NL25 yesterday, lost 8$. Today I played full day and my target for NL25 was 3.8k until I can play NL50 - I managed to reach that. For the first time I had PLO on stream!
2x PLO10, ran good there and won 2.5 BI's.
Day 86- 4027$
Day 87 - 3871$
Day 88 - 3752$
Day 89 - 3744$
Day 90 - 3804$
Btw I lost ~200$ in 4th month of challenge.
Up a bit EV wise though. I succeeded in every single goal I set for that month, so what can I do, poker is cruel.
So tomorrow I'll play only NL50 and I am allowed to mix in NL100 only when reach 4k mark.
I must see this challenge thru. I got like 500 eur left in my life roll, I can survive of ~250/month. My brother said he could lend me smth if I'm close, so let's fkn do it, failure is not an option anymore!
Month 5 goals:
1) No less hands played than month 4;
2) Minimum 4 trainings per week (gonna start once a week swimming pool from March), at least 1 core strength training;
3) Read a book 2.5h/week;
4) Minimum 2.5h/week study with Equilab, run the whole ranges all the way for common spots;
5) Annnd a hard one - wake up 8:30am and have a solid 9:30-17:30 work schedule.

Looks like I'm going to do 1/2 Ironman triathlon in September - in Hungary near Balaton lake. It's 1.9km swim, 90km cycling, 21km run. I did one back in 2014 where I failed to do it sub 5h due to flat tire, so my target is set - under 5h! It will not be easy, in 2014 I had quit my "pro athlete's" career just 4 month prior, so I still had massive physical abilities in me. There is no chance I'll be able to come close to my half marathon time, but in 2014 I did just 4-5 cycling trainings and my swimming performance was weak as well. I got 6 month's to go now, and I can certainly improve my bike/swim skill's more than I'll lose in running part.
