I don't even want to know how slow I'm running right now, so I ditched the Garmin this morning. But just to remind me how I'm doing is Sasha, cheerfully inviting me to run back to the house to run a few extra miles with Sarah-- as I used to do just for fun on Thrusdays and Fridays. Then there's MattK, gliding effotlessly fast down the trail "good morning" he says lifting his hand in a friendly wave. Good morning for who? I think. Then the three lady woggers PASS ME UP from behind with their arm-swinging power-walking. No, not really, they didnt' pass me, they were actually walking toward me. But they probably COULD have passed me by. The great news is, the phlegm has mostly vacated my lungs and I can now breath alright, and my energy is a little higher. My thigh feels ok, but my butt and hips are still either tight or fatigued. I may just try a long run on Saturday. I'll see how tommorrow goes. It has now been a month since I vowed to eat no refined sugar or flour, and no choclate (not even the pure dark stuff). I have had a slip up only once or twice (hey, when a five star chef at a beach-side five star restauraunt in Nantucket offers you a complimentaly portion of his special new flourless choclate cake truffles with huile d' orange, you really can't say no, now can you? Besides which, it didn't even contain any refined flour). I've been back on the wagon especially since being home this week. I wish I could sing accolades of eating pure sources of protein and complex carbohydrate, but I got sick and injured while doing so (it must be the missing chocloate). JK, truth is, I'll probably doing this for a while to really get a feeling how well it works or how to make it work right. A by-product of doing this however is that I've even been off most meat. It it just hasn't seemed appealing. Anyone got a good serving suggestion for Mung Beans?
