Just back from a lakeside run this eve. I did my favorite quick loop- run down Jenny, cut over to Yaharah park, then along the Lake until you cut left through Olbrich and meet back up with the bike path and head back up the Marquette hood. Its about 4 miles, and I can extended it if I want. I just did the 4 miles tonight, as I feel extrememly out of shape today. Did I not run 13.1 miles in one swoop just 3 weeks ago? Why do I feel so slow? I bet the two weeks off complete with plenty o' beer has a little something to do with it.
I am sitting here covered in sweat trying to cool off-- there's no AC in my crib! The landlord said I could get a window unit for my bedroom but I've been too lazy and cheap to pick one up yet. i don't take the heat too well. Its 79 degrees, humid, and on the run the gnats were in clouds so thick they couldn't be avoided. I ate at least three, and just found one in the corner of my eye. mmm delicious gnatty bits!
Still haven't offically started my hardcore 40/40/20 eating plan yet- I need to make it to the grocery store first. I did eat fairly healthy today though, Oatmeal breakfast, stirfry for lunch, protein bar snack. Trying to figure out some dinner...probably scrambled eggs. When I begin the cutting diet I will need to make sure I am eating 5 times a day, all clean foods, and that takes prior planning and preparation. My new role in Human Resources has me a bit frazzled and I've been finding it hard to muster up the mental capacity to do much of anything in the evenings after work. The run tonight was fantastic- I think tomorrow I might ride to the YMCA after work for some lifting and cardio.
