So Saturday was the final training session before next weekend's half-marathon. It also presented a bit more of a challenge than most of our training sessions, as it was hot and humid. We've been training for a June race in Virginia, but most of our training has been in the cool winter and spring weather of New England. Needless to say, everybody's a little concerned about what the weather's going to be like next weekend. I haven't decided when my next half-marathon is going to be after this one. In the short term I know I want to run some 5K and 10K's and focus on getting those times down. A half-marathon is a long term commitment for me, whereas a shorter race can be run on the spur of the moment if necessary. I've said it before, but who would've imagined that I'd be running 6+ miles at a stretch at all, let alone planning to run the entire 13.1 next week.
Food: egg and cheese sandwich for breakfast (300 calories), lunch was some scrambled eggs and toast (650 calories), dinner was penne, sauce and garlic toast again (1000 calories). No real snacks on the day however, was a little too busy. Exercise was approximately 700 calories, for 6.1 miles of running.
Today's Results:
Daily Food Total: 1950
Exercise: 700
Points Earned: 1750
Total Points Earned: 52667
Points to go: 147333
