Change of marathon plans…
Well my marathon plans have to be scrapped, I have an unavoidable work weekend the same weekend I was planning to run the Robin Hood Marathon in Nottingham (in England). The good thing is that I don’t have to worry … Continue reading

Marathon training (temporarily) derailed
What the hell… So I hurt my knee on Wednesday, limped around on Thursday and felt fine on Friday. I went for a very slow 2-mile jog (instead of the 3-miler called for in the schedule), did the scheduled rest … Continue reading

Had a run on Saturday, then mountain biking last night

Diet, day 20 (I think)
I’ve lost track a bit of what day I’m on, but regardless the diet is still going good. The last time I weighed myself, last Friday, I’d dropped an inch and a half in my waist and lost a little … Continue reading
Diet, day 12
Fast Day again, uggghh. Not fun. Have felt pretty weak and even light-headed, so much so that for lunch I had to have a flapjack (baked oat/sugar cake popular with backpackers and trekkers in the UK) in addition to the … Continue reading
