Starting again
OK, I am starting to post again. I need the pressure (shame) of posting to keep up the pace for weight maintenance and fitness. Just going to post the basics so I will have a record of my activity.
Since the 1/2M Dec 12th (5 weeks ago) I have only ran 2 times, 4M and a 11K New years day. Both were pretty easy. But I have picked up 5-6 pounds during that time (holidays), so today I buckle down again and hit it hard. A little over 200, planning on being under 180 within a month. Running or weights every day, low carb, low cal. Knock off this last 20 and then put the maintenance plan in place.

Run
So we ran the Fayetteville 1/2 Marathon Sunday. Everyone did great, we ran pretty much the times that we had ran in training. I ran 2:19:52, not fast but under 2:30 and that was my goal. It was about 18 degrees with a 20-30 mph wind, it was cold. I may never run that distance again, my plan is to get a schedule for maintaining weight and fitness but not to be a "runner".
So this blog is over, I may let it die or use it for some other motivation in the future but for now it has served its purpose.

Run
Missed Thur. run, dinner with friends. Took off early Fri to run before dark, 4M--42:34. Ran this morning, 31 degrees, tried out my new running clothes. Wore running tight pants, wind pants, tech long sleeve shirt, outer shirt, fleece top, knit cap and gloves. Pants were great, just warm enough, too much for shirts, sweating after a mile, did not need the fleece. Hat came off at 3 M, gloves at 5M. I will wear them next Sun with the plan of taking them off when I get warmed up. Run today of 8M--1hour, 28:55. Not bad, I think I am as ready as I will ever be. Easy week leading up to Sun.
