Maja was dragging today for no apparent reason. Maybe she's sore after having not run with me for three consecutive days in a very long time--do dogs get sore? We headed down 900 South to Diestel, down Bonneview to 15th, down to 17th South, up to 16th East, up Harrison to 19th East, then up Sheridan/Claremont to 13th South, then to 21st East and home. For the record, I've been guessing on mileage lately (they are educated guesses based on similar runs with the Garmin) because my focus has been on reestablishing the habit of running nearly every day. I'll worry about speed and distance as I get into my real training schedule. Brooke and I are thinking about trying the Paleo diet for 30 days to see if we can drop some weight quickly at the beginning of my SG training regimen. I'm already down to around 157-158, but my goal is to hit 149. We've already started a modified version of the diet by limiting our grain and dairy intake (with a little cheating), but this would be the real deal. We're trying to come up with an incentive to make the suffering worth our while. The sooner we come up with it, the sooner we can get this 30-day clock running (and the sooner we can get it over with!).
