Body Comp 179.6 lbs 16.8% to 9.5% BF, Before I even get started I felt crappy.  Yesterday post run I ate my cereal and waited for a customer to come in for lunch and she was late very late.  Didn’t end up eating until a little after 3:00 we ended up eating at Rodigzio’s (it is a Brazilian all you can eat meat house with salads) which would be about my last choice under the circumstance.  So there I am stuck eating the endless supply of meat and feeling starved.  I can’t go to the salad bar because we end up talking the whole time and it would just be rude.  So we drive back to the office hit traffic and get back by 5:15PM then I catch up run home to get Suzanne and head off to Our office Christmas Party at 7:00.  The party was great and lots of fun but we ordered 10 days ago and so yes now I get another New York steak which was fine but my body is dying for carbs.  So where yesterday I felt like I got hit by a truck today I felt like I was dragging the truck.  Ran 10.1 slightly different route few more hills and climbing.  1:19:55 and my HR was 149/163I ran the first half considerably faster then the second but just felt no energy.  I am making sure not to much protein today and more carbs.  I still have a headache from the lack of energy.  And no I didn’t get the Wicked tickets.  Suzanne thinks bringing the girls to Boston and heading down to New York would be lovely.  Somehow that doesn’t seem like the way to get a PR.

Thanks for the welcome.

Yesterday you felt like you were hit by a bus, and today only a truck. Things are getting better...

I should be able to figure out how to add to my blog details soon.

As a quick intro, I am 48 year old American who works and lives in Bali.

Used to do triathlons and running races, but slipped back to smoking and drinking on the beach. Now committed to stopping that nonsense and getting back to the shape I prefer. Round is a shape, but not the one I prefer. LOL

Running with my wife is helping me to keep my pace down to build up endurance. speed will come later.

Thanks again for the welcome.
