As I get back to work with my post July 4th hangover (not from alcohol, but from screaming babies) I am looking forward to the weekend and some good training. I may have overeaten a bit yesterday, but I am confident my weekend activities should balance that all out.This is not the best strategy for keeping a good weight. Sure, you can always workout more to balance the calories you take in, but a better strategy is to eat right all the time and then you will easily maintain your weight. I fail at this all the time. Not that I am fat by any means. I am quite fit. I may be one of the lucky ones that is able to maintain a reasonable weight even if I occasionally overeat, but that doesn't make up for poor nutrition.
I am an avid reader and I have been following the whole GMO controversy. I truly would like to cut out any GMO foods from my diet, but it is just so fucking hard. Seriously. Maybe if I had a Whole Foods or a Trader Joes around, it would be a bit easier, but there are no such stores in my neck of the woods (and my neck is not a giraffe, so Orlando doesn't count). I am contemplating mapping out a plan for going organic and GMO free in the new year. Any advice would be appreciated!
Back to running...here are our numbers:
Time: 25:00
Distance: 2.00 miles
Pace: 12:37/m
Max Pace: 9:54/m
Calories:216
Avg HR: 108
Avg HR: 108
We may have run a few seconds over 25 minutes, but I didn't record them. I wanted to reach at least 2 miles. I have to hit at least 2 miles on a 25 minute run, or I feel like I wasted the run. Next time, I'll be pushing Honey to keep her pace above 12:30 so we always hit 2 miles!
On to the weekend!!
Run for Life!
