da weekend

I've done pretty well this week and for the first time in a while I'd be disappointed if the scale didn't lean my way (more on the scale later). There was no workout Friday, but I ate pretty well. Saturday i headed out with all my waters and gels and capsules for a 15 mile run without walk breaks. Well I ended up running close to home (as opposed to a trail, because I started early and the thought of being alone on a trail at sunrise spooked me - dam animals everywhere). I didn't ant to waste 45 minutes driving to a more urban trail downtown either, hence my run went from my home, to a nearby school, to the track, and then around the track, and around, and around...

Well after 20 laps (for a total of 6.5 miles counting the run to the school), I called it quits. To make things wussier, I called my wife to come pick me up. I felt pretty good, but obviously somewhat bored. I didn't eat breakfast nor did I prepare much for this on Friday. I was happy that i at least got in a short run.

No workout Sunday, but I did cut the grass and do lots of house work. I also ate great. I've started today (as all Mondays) with no carbs. My goal is zero carbs (or close to this) at least twice a week...we'll see.
