Great Run

The run went very well today. I focused on not over doing it and did a fast run with my HR below 160. Compared to Wednesday it was a blast, near the end I had to keep telling myself not to go farther or faster or Id blow it.

Time for 5 miles was 52:15. However I always run for an hour, the 5 mile time gives me a measure of where I am since I started years ago.

I have lost so many inches on my chest that I had to bring the Heart Rate monitor in a few inches. Brilliant.

I did blow my diet again. Its becoming a bit of a common theme, trying to balance weight loss and train for an Ironman is a real challenge. On average I'm burning 2500 calories a day so hunger and not enough nutrition can be an issue.

Thanks to my friends for their encouragement after my small breakdown on Monday! Overdoing it does lead to feeling down too.

Movie: Stealth, great movie.
