The trails were rough. I didn't wear my Garmin, so I have no idea what pace I was going. It could have bee 11 minute miles, it could have been 8. It was rough. Mostly because there were hills. My lungs forgot what hills were like. My legs were okay, my lungs, not so much. I have lots of time to relearn hills. This was a good start.
And then I took a picture in my bathroom. Why? Because this is a blog and I do what I want.

What else? I did my homework for my trainer. I'm working on negatives with the pull ups right now because my trainer told me so.
Let's see.
OH.
Taking a week off from training is weird. I still lifted weights, but didn't run or bike or anything. My laundry was less than half exercise clothes. I forgot to shower a few times, since I was so trained to shower post-workout. I had SO MUCH FREE TIME.
One of my uses of free time was spent organizing my books. These are the household cookbooks. Some of them have never been opened.

I also decided I should start to eat better again. So, 9+ cups of fruits and vegetables for lunch today.

Don't worry, there's meat in there, too.
Holy shit that was a lot of veggies. Delicious, but too high volume for me, man. But my poop is going to be awesome.
Yes, that's gross. I don't care. The internet is for poop talk and porn. At least, according to my browser history.
ROFL, that would tear up my tummy!!! I am starting my half training officially too as of 2 weeks ago, best of luck to you!
ReplyDeleteI did laundry today--I loved that more than half of the load was workout clothes! Hahaha, suck it. (I should probably take a real rest day...)
ReplyDeleteThe veggie tower is awesome. I should try eating one of those too, but I'm really into cookies right now.
ReplyDeleteyea tell me about it. After the marathon sunday I know I have to take this whole week off. and that will drive me insane.
ReplyDeletePoop, porn and photos! Isn't the internet wonderful????????
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the training! All this talk of half marathons has gotten me thinking that maybe I should do one.
ReplyDeleteI need to eat better also. Can you make up some veggie/fruit towers for me? :)
Last week was my easy week and I spent all that time staring at my workout clothes because I'm so use to living in them. Thank goodness all that basketball was on. I felt sewn to the sofa and just watched and ate Oreos. Bad choice, I know.
ReplyDeleteI've been eating entire apples lately. They make me feel like I've swallowed a rhino.
Now I have Avenue Q songs stuck in my head.
ReplyDeleteThe internet is for porn!
The internet is for porn!
Grab your dick and double click for porn, porn porn!
Love your fruit/veggie tower! Meanwhile, I'm obsessing over Starburst, & trying to convince myself to avoid the siren song of those delicious fruit chews.
ReplyDeletetaryn I have to say interesting poem....i love how you rhymed porn with porn!
ReplyDeleteI think your kids would be pretty awesome!
ReplyDeleteMy mom has those containers!
ReplyDeleteYour toilet paper is almost out. Get another roll ready.
I should take a note from you and up the veggies and fruits. I'll do it! I hope.
That's a great job well done, Congratulations. Good luck in your marathon training and in the marathon race event. Keep it up !
