Good week...... feeling comfortable with 12 - 15 mile runs (treadmill or outdoors)... getting back into the bike and some bricks..... really need to focus on the nutrition..... New years eve and saturday "date night" set me back a bit.... drank a few cold ones and some gentleman jack..... also ate some deep fried foods with salty fried items.....However, like Karl stated.... i actually felt stonger with more calories... they are just the wrong type of calories..... we are burning some major calories on those 10 plus mile runs....... Starting to focus and get readjusted to "day shift" living..... really must get off the 3rd shift thing.....really brings me and my energy levels down..... I'm looking forward to the next month of training..... getting preped for my first race in March.... got some new run gear etc....... all jacked up.... bring on 2009!

Loving the energy in this post. Good stuff, Dino! I agree with the wrong kind of calories. I'm back on the wagon and so is the wife. That helps keep the family on track.
Keep giving it hell. You'll do that under 4 hour marathon with no problem!
