Let Week 2 Begin

There’s something about getting an early start in the morning. I live about a mile from the ocean, so the air is cool and heavy with moisture. There is a palpable quiet.

Who am I kidding?!?!  It is freaking early in the morning!?!?! Who in their right mind would be up at 5AM, choke down a cup of coffee and be off for a wog before their bowels have had a chance to realize that it’s morning?

Monday:

Distance: 0 miles

Calories: 107 deficit

Tuesday:

Distance: 2.66 miles @ 15:16 pace

Calories: 228 deficit

Tomorrow is sleep in until 5:45. Yea!

Weekend Weigh-In

Wrapped up the week with four miles on Sunday. Visited an old friend:

I guess this wasn’t a trail after all, which is a bit of a shame because the views from the top were spectacular:

Turnaround point looking down into Emerald Canyon. One of these days I’ll get back down here. The problem is the climb out:

Stats for the rest of the week:

Friday

Distance: 0 miles

Calories: 103 deficit

Saturday

Distance: 0 miles

Calories: 35 too many

Sunday

Distance: 4.16 miles @ 15:56 per mile

Calories: 425 deficit

Weekend Weigh in: Down one pound for the week. It’s a journey – not a race.

Damn it. Why are you keeping me honest?

Wednesday:

No mileage.

Calories: 127 deficit

Thursday:

Distance: 2.65 mis

Pace: 16:00

Calories: 328 deficit

Three days down. So far so good, but that's because weigh in isn't until Sunday....
