6 mile run this evening.  I also did push ups, sit ups, weights and hit the heavy bag for awhile.  I'll have to take it easy on the bag.  I hurt my wrist hitting it and ankle kicking it.  I'm trying to get in running shape here, kicking the bag isn't worth a hurt ankle.  It's a little counter productive, but it's sooooo fun.  Kicking the poop out of something that can't kick back makes me feel sooo touch.

6 mile run with the dog.  Did weights today as well triceps and biceps, push ups, sit ups and beat the bag for awhile. 

I need to start eating better.  I work my butt off and don't see the results I'm shooting for.  Every time I'm out of town I eat junk and a lot of it.  I was watching the biggest looser with my wife last night and decided it was time to start eating better.  We'll see if I can stick to this new resolution and how much it adds to my performance.  I've never really watched what I've ate in all the years I've been training, so I'm curious to see how it effects the bottom line. 

Writing this makes me want to eat a Big Mac and some ice cream, I'm already crumbling!!!

6 miles this morning with the dog.  Felt pretty good and easy.  I thought  a lot about my running goals for the year while I ran.

6 miles with the dog this morning.  I feel that I'm gradually getting faster and stronger again.  I'm happy with my weeks work.  I ran every day and logged 36 miles, that more then I've ran in a long time.  I hope I have the will-power to keep it up.
