Fire It Up Again!

Today I began to take stock of my intake once again. My intake is generally high in the morning and high in the evenings.
This mornng I put away a cup of grapes and three scrambled eggs on a kaiser roll, topped off with hot chocolate. Later on I had 2 slices of low-fat bread an apple and a banana. I just finished dinner which was about a cup and a half of rice, a large chicken breast (probably 5 oz) and some vegetables (which I don`t really count). At some point I will total these. I have been using Diet Power on and off to monitor my intake, and I think I would have been much worse off without it. Time to fire it up again.
I did my circuit through the town this evening. The shadows came early and it was less fun than it could have been.

Ready, Set

New day today. So much rain yesterday I would have been washed away if I tried to run. Anyway, a mild autumn day predicted for today, so I`m ready and set.

Back Again!

Well I have been away from blogging for a while, haven`t I? Yes. Well I should at least make an update on the event that inspired this blog. I did run and complete the New Jersey Marathon in April this year! It was an unforgetable experience. Then I fell off the map. So many challenges in the other aspects of my life that it appeared something had to give and that was blogging. Running, I ket up a little. About once a week on average. So, yes, I put on weight as a result. Anyway, things have just become more intense in all aspects of my non-running life and it`s clear that running helps. So I am returning to full active duty. Had a short run on Monday, and replaced my shoes yesterday. Will see if I can get out today once the rain holds.
