Follow along as I try to reach my fitness goals

Saturday, August 12, 2006I broke through the barrier but in the wrong directionSo much for bouncing between 200 and 205 pounds. A week of vacation has ruined that for me. We got home late last night and I weighed this morning and found my weight at 206. It's no surprise. We went to my wife's parents house and everytime we do that, we eat way to much and too much of it is junk...

I didn't make my goal for this week of running more miles than last week because of it. I will try again this week. I still have to figure out how I am going to change my plan and my goals to fit with my...

I still have to get up in the mornings with my son so this may be cutting my sleep by too much. Last night I didn't get home until 2am and I think that most of the time I won't be getting home until...

I was hoping that it would be enough that my calves would feel better tonight. They don't and so I think I better give them the night off. I don't really want to because I can set a new best in mileage with one more run but it won't do me any good if I do...

I think most runners just do them once a week or once in a while, not once or twice (if you count the walk Trey and I take) a day. My right calf was the worse of the two, crying and whimpering from nearly the first...

Yesterday I started my new eating plan where I was going to start eating 5 times a day instead of 4. I ate six because I was up early. Yesterday when I weighed myself, I was up to 205...

I started my new eating plan today, sort of. I was planning on eating 5 times but I ended up eating 6 times instead. For some bizarre reason I woke up at 4am this morning. That is not like me at all. I usually... Sign in to see full entry.Monday, July 31, 2006It was a better run tonight - very niceMy run tonight went so much better than most of my previous runs in the last 5 weeks. I think that the main reason is that it was about 10 degrees cooler today than it has been for the last couple of weeks. Even running at night, it has been very warm. Tonight it was in the low 80's and it made it a... Sign in to see full entry.Sunday, July 30, 2006I have set my goal for my rewardI gave it some thought and I'm going to go with Darrke's suggestion. Mileage makes the most sense. I'm going to go ahead and set it where I want to end up. I will treat myself to a massage every 200 miles. That means that it could be a while until I get a massage but the hope is that I will get to... Sign in to see full entry.Well, I made my goal if only barelyTonight was the last run of the week. The goal for the week was to run more than 13.5 miles. I didn't think I was going to make it but I logged in yesterday's mileage and today's and it added up to 14 miles for the week. That is so good. My goal for the next week will be to run more than 14 miles. I... Sign in to see full entry. |
