got up this morning, did my body-weight routine (very short at the moment but will build that up), got my shorts, shoes and cap on for the walk… opened the door and it was pissing down…
as I was working in the office today, I didn’t have time to let it pass, and instead told myself the walk could happen tonight. and guess what? worked late, fell asleep when I got home. fingers crossed for a dry start tomorrow, or at least just a light shower… I really don’t mind the rain, just not getting soaked through!
food:
breakfast: 2 rashers bacon, 2 eggs, glass of milk with cold drip coffee and stevia flavouring
mid-morning: long black, noshu (no sugar) peanut snack bar
lunch: seaweed snack, small can tuna, small no-added sugar chocolate bar, bottle of kombucha
mid-afternoon: noshu coconut snack bar
dinner: small plate with salami, roast beef, cheddar cheese and mayon, some 85% dark chocolate
other:
morning: metformin, trajenta, ancestral nutrition multi, usana cellsentials & biomega fish oil
evening: metformin, usana cellsentials & biomega fish oil
hydration pretty good today too!
activity:
total steps: almost 7500 today 🙂
physical, mood etc.:
mood and energy still really good. could use a bit more sleep, but naps help.
notes:
for those interested – the plan I am following is below (converted to km and walks instead of runs) – from the same site I got my very first half marathon and marathon programs… https://www.verywellfit.com/beginner-runners-10k-training-schedule-2911611
