First run of the year done in brand new Asicss-gel-panthera shoes! No shin splints. Tho the run seemed difficult but time was slightly less than 14minmile so that felt good.
Have got my 16 week program to run a half marathon , which reminds me , I have to sign up for it today. I have made this paper log and sign off each day, the number of logs I have it seems I must be a world class athlete, or doing really good with the diet and exercise.
Lets see, I log my food intake and daily activity on fitday.com. It shows me a calorie balance for the day and week and month etc, I always seem to be in the negative( which means I have gone beyond the daily goal of calorie intake)
Then I have this blog where I log in the daily activity under'see my progress'.
And as mentioned above I have the paper log which I keep in my paper journal!!
You would think all that logging would keep me busy enough to prevent stuffing myself, but no, it takes only 2 min to do serious damage to the daily calorie goal.
I am getting slightly more serious about the weight loss goal. I really want to get faster in running, just upto 12 min miles and I know that even losing 10 pounds might help me reach that goal.
Also, as I get near another birthday, it seem as if each extra pound I have is the reason for looking older than my chronological age. I am too old to be influenced by the media images but I see women in my neightbourhood who really look 10 years younger, simply because they are of ideal body weight and less. This feeling will last maybe all of 2 hours, I have been observing them for the last 4-5 years with no change in my actions towards the positive, but still.
Aiming for 3 fruit and 3 veggie serving today.
