Everyday has failed

So I have already failed at updating everyday but such is life. I have already dropped 5 lbs and weighed in at 232.8 this morning. Missed a few runs this weekend becuase of the cold weather. Will make up for the eventually. Running tonight should be decent temps.

First Run cut short

So my legs were in enough pain that I had to cut my 7 miler short. I only made it just over 4.25. I have a tempo run today and wanted my legs to be able to handle as much of that as possible. I will make up the milage distance on friday with a loosen up run. I am getting worried about how I am supposed to run 14 on saturday. Not sure how well that will work but I will give it a shot.

I am looking for a new computer, any reccomendations?

Pain!

So first run back after being sick and out for a few months. Weight is much higher than it was but I guess my brains didnt get that message and slow down. My pace was much faster than it should have been and caused some serious leg pain. I fought with myself to push through it which wasnt easy but I made it. I need to dress a bit warmer for these runs but that will be easy. The Stick has been my savior. I have been using it every 45 min or so to help my quads and hammies recover for tonight. Hopefully I am able to slow it down a little and be in a little less pain after.

On another note. I have decided to try My Fit Foods (www.myfitfoods.com) and am loving the food and portion control. This could be a real big help in the end if this ends up working out for me. They will also give free meetings with a nutrionist which I will probably take up just to maximize my training a bit more.

Hope everyone is having a great day.

First day!

Hey everyone! So I weighed in this morning and well lets just say it is not where it should be but being sick during the holidays certainly did not help. My stats this morning:
Weight - 237.8 lbs
Body Fat - 25.3%
Water - 54.2%

Needless to say these will all be changing and hopefully drastically in the coming weeks as I kick of training today with a 7 mile run. 2010 is going to be a hard year but nothing worthwhile was ever easy so it is time to sack up and just do it.

Here goes nothing.....
