Weight a Minute!
Right - that's FLM polished off, and my legs survived relatively intact - in fact less so than when I was running faster times. Kinda surprising, considering I weigh about two stone more (as can be seen in some of the piccies).
Anyhow - all this forum socialising and the readily available supply of biccies at wuk has done enough damage. I know it's not the first time I've said it, but hopefully with me being able to do some proper training, it'll be easier. I weighed myself this morning and weighed 226 lbs (16 stone 2 lbs). Wibble!
Anyhow - I've just been to the shops, bought lots of veggies, fruit and all that sort of thing. I know I also need to control portion size [waves to Wumble]. Anyhow - here goes.
I'm about to enter a couple of races - the Epsom 10k on May 21st, and the Dysart Dash on the 25th June. Let's hope by the later I'll be close to 15 stone (or below) and go sub 50.
I've also decided to reset my PBs for now. I'm never going to come near to what I did in 2002 soon, so for the moment I'm wiping the slate clean. That way I can get the motivation from improving my times, rather than just thinking "cripes that's sh1te compared to my PB". Okay - it's a cheap mpotivational trick, but if it helps me then it's got to be worth doing. By the end of the year I hope to be pushing my original PBs!
Anyhow - here goes :oD

Every race is a pb - it's the first time you've run that race at that age ;o))) Doing unusual distances helps too, on the pb front!
And what have I told you about those biscuits????
