The food this week has been awesome, the exercise not so. None yesterday or today so far, and none expected as we have guests for dinner. Wednesdays are a mental stumbling block for me. If things havent gone as well as I hoped for the beginning of the week I often feel inclined to waste the rest of the week away. I have only recently realised this since starting the Couch to 5km running program. If I did Monday's run but not Wednesday's, it felt like such a waste. I need to get R in on this realisation so he can help me get some exercise done on Wednesday so as not to feel out of sorts for the rest of the week.
I'm the opposite - exercise good, food terrible. We're in Perth and I ran my 9.4km leg of the Perth marathon yesterday. It took me 47 minutes and I felt great. However, I've eaten seriously greasy Chinese takeaway with prawn crackers, fish and chips, iced chocolate, roast lamb dinner with apple pie and icecream, creamy penne pasta - all that and more in the last 48 hours!!! Went for a 30 minute recovery run today and will get back on track tomorrow! Hump day is coming up again - are you going to fit in a run?
