[Today’s run: 13 miles]<\/p>\n
This week my lovely wife went and signed us up for a marathon in October.\u00a0 She asked me first and I said OK.\u00a0 But still…\u00a0 it sounds like trouble.<\/p>\n
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.\u00a0 I think I am up about 20-25 from when I did my last marathon in the fall of 2010.<\/p>\n
No more soda-pop.\u00a0 No more french fries.\u00a0 No more potato chips.\u00a0 (Potatoes in general are none to good.) Stop eating when I am full and don’t start until I’m hungry.\u00a0 When ice cream, one scoop and one scoop only.\u00a0 When restless, drink water first and evaluate before throwing open the fridge.\u00a0 If I can actually do all of that then 10 lbs will be easy.<\/p>\n
I am a lot better at eating than I am at running.\u00a0 Why is that?\u00a0 It doesn’t seem right.<\/p>\n
In other news,\u00a0 I worked some more on the 40db tap.\u00a0 I have a couple more things to do on that.<\/p>\n
And this week I ordered some solar panels for the autonomous weather station.\u00a0 So that project is still moving along slowly.\u00a0 Lots of fun stuff happening.<\/p>\n
