2/20/14 run. crossfit. a word about what i eat.
run. 5am. 5K. not much else to say. as always, its kind of tough to roll out of bed at 4:45am and run 5K. wanted to keep it kind of slow, but i ended up about 25 seconds faster than last night. I guess if I just run what feels right, i'm going to end up faster than intended. I need to discipline myself, maybe watch my pace while running.
food. I think we eat pretty healthy. we hardly eat out, maybe once every few weeks. T cooks everything from scratch. there are very few, if any, pre-packaged foods or pre-assembled dishes. the farmer delivers fresh fruit/veggies once a week. the milkman delivers milk and eggs once a week. prior to this current endeavor, I was at least keeping an eye on the quantity of food I ate. I figure T handles the quality, I am responsible for the quantity. as in, eat sensibly and no seconds at dinner, that sort of thing. when I started this current ramp up, I lost a few pounds. but other than a blip on the radar over the holidays, I have maintained the same weight from december until now. really consistent. I am eating like a horse. seconds every night, sometimes until its all gone. whether I feel hungry or not. several nights i have eaten until i felt sick. I'm not losing any more weight, but I may need some new strategies when the miles ramp up. eat more frequently? I currently eat (including snacks) probably 5 times a day. maybe have to throw in extra protein shakes every day? it will be interesting to look at the data in a few months, maybe mid summer.
crossfit. 5 rounds for time: 20 double unders, 25 abmat situps, 30 kettlebell swings. I actually stuck many of my double unders together. at least 3 of the rounds were unbroken. 150 KB swings got tough. but it felt like a respectable performance.
2/20/14. coffee. orange. beef jerky. almonds. steak sandwich. rice pilaf. apple. protein bar. protein shake. spaghetti and meatballs. spinach salad. lots of water.
