Running From My Wife

I've been running on and off (more off than on!!) for three years now. This blog is intended to keep me motivated through the ups and downs of this journey! p.s. Running is also an excuse to get away from The Wife

Distance : 3.2 kms (Treadmill)
Time : 16:45

Plus weight training.

I thought I will experiment a bit. I increased my speed to 11.5km/h and run a shorter distance, just to give my body a jolt. It wasn't that bad. Really enjoyed pushing myself.

Food Diary :
Breakfast : 1 cup Muesli with milk

Snack : Cinnamon Roll (BAD BOY!!!)

Lunch : Chicken curry with Rice and 1 Indian Bread, Ice-cream, Chocolate Truffle
(1 day of indulgence is permitted!!!)

Dinner : Two boiled eggs with wheat bread (see...i made up!!)

I was trying on low-carb foods most of the last week. Don't think it helps. It doesn't give you the energy that you need. So, I have to plan my carbs for the day correctly.
