blah, blah, blog

The term BLOG is a portmanteau, or, in other words, a blend of the words web and log. A blog is a user-generated website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order. Blogs often provide commentary or news on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries (as this one). A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic.

12.29.06

GREAT fast 5-mile run. A little tight in the lower left leg but not painful. The next two weeks will be recovery weeks with only 25 miles each week. No long run on Monday. Doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate and + my running partner will not be here after all.

Went to WW last night for my monthly check-in. Have gained 9.4 lbs. since last month! WoW! Double WoW!! I was 6 tenths of a pound from having to pay. OUCH!

Today will be a throwing out day. Going to get rid of all that left over Christmas JUNK that tempts me so greatly. Will have 3 servings of the good stuff -- yogurt w/live cultures. No sense in waiting 'till the New Year to get started. Running will be much easier once I get about 10 lbs. off. I think that's probably why I have been struggling so the last few weeks.

So, a couple of weeks of recovery running and dropping 10 pounds. That should set things right for getting back to it. Only 2 long runs in the month of January, a 15-miler and a 20-miler. February will bring more long runs. a 20, 15, and 25! Looking forward to these long runs, they are most enjoyable.

Would like to drop about 20 lbs. before the marathon. I believe if I can strike a balance between light weight but not weak it will serve me well.
