Back into the swing of things starting today after a short holiday break. Ran for about 4.5 miles today. Set up my MiCoach on my iPhone for a half-marathon on April 30th (Kentucky Derby 1/2). I also applied to be a sponsored athlete with 3 Disciplines Racing. They sponsor anyone from pros down to regular guys like me. They will be picking 2 people in the next few weeks. Not terribly confident but I love their events so thought I'd give it a try.
In addition to the event schedule I posted and the normal training, I decided to start making some small dietary changes. Here they are:
January 1: no more beer. This one is easy. I drink about 4-5 a month.
March 1: no more non-diet soda. This one will be a little tougher but I don't drink that much real soda.
May 1: no more fast food. Healthier options like Subway are ok, but no more burgers and fries.
July 1: no more diet soda. This one will be tough as I drink plenty of water but also drink a few diet sodas on most days.
I hope these changes will help drop a few pounds here and there as I get closer to the big event.
Finally, training this week:
Monday: 50 minute run.
Tuesday: off
Wednesday: 35 minute run.
Thursday: swim workout.
Friday: 30 minute run.
Saturday: 50 minute run.
Sunday: hour bike, probably on the trainer indoors.
