[Today’s run: 13 miles]
This week my lovely wife went and signed us up for a marathon in October. She asked me first and I said OK. But still… it sounds like trouble.
So, I now have to quit goofing around and lose about 10 lbs by 1-July and another 10 lbs by 1-Oct, more if I can. I think I am up about 20-25 from when I did my last marathon in the fall of 2010.
No more soda-pop. No more french fries. No more potato chips. (Potatoes in general are none to good.) Stop eating when I am full and don’t start until I’m hungry. When ice cream, one scoop and one scoop only. When restless, drink water first and evaluate before throwing open the fridge. If I can actually do all of that then 10 lbs will be easy.
I am a lot better at eating than I am at running. Why is that? It doesn’t seem right.
In other news, I worked some more on the 40db tap. I have a couple more things to do on that.
And this week I ordered some solar panels for the autonomous weather station. So that project is still moving along slowly. Lots of fun stuff happening.
