Surprise! Another busy week!
I’ve got good news and bad news.
Good news is I’m taking Wed, thur, Fri off work for vacation. Bad news is its going to be difficult to go to Utah with my wife’s extended family and still eat healthy. I fell off the boat right about our last trip down there two years ago and I’m not going to do the same this time. I understand that I’m going to have to be semi-flexible about eating unhealthy food but I’m going to have to draw the line, and I’ve had awkward situations in the past with turning down a dessert turning into a personal attack. Whatever. I’ll do my best.
So the plan is,
Monday: Lift Morning, head to medford, exercise bike after work
Tuesday: Run (Interval Training{4×1200@7:01/mi with 1:30 rest intervals)
Wednesday: EARLY flight to utah, Lift in the late afternoon with Mark
Thursday: Run (1 mile warmup, 3 miles@ 7:46/mi, 1 mile cooldown)
Friday: Lift with Mark + some other type of cardio… Maybe tennis or something
Saturday: Run (7 miles @ 8:16/mi pace)
I’m not going to track any food this week (along with the last half of last week), but I’m going to make a stalwart effort to keep my protein/water high, stay away from useless calories, and eat every few hours. Ugghhhh going to be hard with these folks. My wife doesn’t think so — I guess we’ll see.

I hadn’t made the connection of you ‘falling off the wagon’ with our trip to Utah a few years back. I guess that would explain some of your trepidation of going down there again this time.
I want to eat healthy too and I’m really hoping we can help each other in that regard. I’m trying to be supportive and optimistic, it would be nice if I got the same thing in return.
In fact, I was planning on slipping Mark money under the table so you could lift without feeling guilty about it at all, but maybe it’s better if you know that it’s worth $30 to me in order to have you lift down there.
