Ran 7 miles in the park after work today. Great run. 8:20 per mile so I'm getting there. Burned 1140 calories or about the amount of calories in that Ben and Jerry's tub. I think a pretty good trade off. I weigh 204 today...getting closer to the magical 200 lb mark. I don't know if I've mentioned this but the last time I've been below 200 lbs was in 1997. Looks like I can get there in a couple weeks as long as I don't destroy everything in my path on the 4th of July.Running 11 miles on Saturday morning. The best thing about the long runs from here on out is the following:
1) I'll burn over 1600 per run
2) Keeps my alcohol intake low or zero the night before
3) I NAP like a CHAMP!! about 3 hours after my long run...I'm talkin drool on the pillow napping...which is the highest level of napping possible.
BTW, today is the craziest weather day ever! Sunshine, clouds, drizzle, pour, sunshine, pour, sunshine, clouds, etc, etc, etc.
Have a great 4th of July weekend!
