  Good One To Read Managed to workout at 9pm, an hour after breaking fast, a few times. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was only 20 mins of Jillian's 30 Day Shred each time. I had a one week break from fasting, so upped my activity a little. Yet, no running. Quite miss it actually. Here's a link of someone's blog on her transition from couch to Jillian's 30DS to running: http://www.theshredheads.com/2010/08/jillian-michaels-running-and-weight-loss.htmlVery interesting read and I can rel...

  On A Break So I did two weeks of MTC and then a week and a half of running, and both my legs are SORE! Funny how strength training makes me hungry all the time. And when I switched back to running, I don't care much for food.Yesterday was my last 8km run. Will be fasting the next month, so I can't do anything strenuous the next 4 weeks plus - less glycogen in the muscles can't make me do much - and I can't find the time either, unless I run at 12 midnite, but what are the chances of that. Will be doing ...

  The Diet It's Friday. Usually on Fridays, I slowly let myself go. Then on Sats, I let loose and by the time it's Sunday nite, my bloodstream is so full of poison that by Monday, I wished I hadn't gone crazy with the junk food.It has been 19 days since I am junk-free :P Congrats, me! I wasn't planning on going beyond 14 days, but I really like how I feel now, that I think I'll just continue until I really crave for something bad. I didn't go all full 19 days junk-free though - I am not that crazy ;) - ...

  New PRs This past week was supposed to be my rest week after 2 months of continuous workouts... but I overate [4 weekends ago for 2 weekends] and got so bloated, in other words, FAT, I decided to workout another week before I allow the body to rest. So far, no burnout but my knees have been giving me trouble... so this week, I MUST recuperate completely.The past 2 weeks has been about personal records. I ran 8km last Tues for 57 mins and 18 seconds on a less terraineous route. Only a few weeks ago, I...

  My Shadow Is Sexier I have no idea why, but I look better just before my monthly cycle starts. And then I start looking drab and puffy. But at the same time, [prior to the start of each cycle] my legs feel heavy and I fatigue easily. That's when I wish I didn't have to workout. I think I've found a way to beat that - make my workouts easier to deal with and take less sodium. And of course, drink lots of water and up my intake of iron and calcium. I know when that time is about to kick in without having to check ...

  So Far It's been a while. I still feel unmotivated to workout but it's not as bad as before. Of course after that week, I felt so tempted to skip all my workouts. I still do. But I know that guilt is gonna creep up behind me later, so I just went on and got it over with. Done! Happy!The weather has been TERRIBLE!!! I got a fresh coat of unwanted tan two Saturdays ago. I so loathe running in the bright morning sun. Even with an inch thick coat of sunblock, visor on, shaded trees, they just don't help...

  Unmotivated Oh gawd... I tried to write this twice but everything got erased. So frustrating!!!So as I was saying, or rather writing before everything went poof...I managed to run 8kms four times already the past 4 weeks. Yay to me! There was one week when I over-did it and ran almost 10km without realizing it, of course. I almost crashed out before I got home. I swear I'll never do that again!!! Have to adhere to the 10% rule.My total weekly kms now come to around 18km. I guess that's pretty ok for a be...

  And Then There Was A... Creepy crawlie.Yup. A 5-foot long black snake along my running route, approaching in my direction. The hair on the back of my neck still stands each time I recall that incident.That happened last Saturday morning. I was on my 2nd lap around the corner of the golf range. Two ladies saw me coming around the corner and pointed at the snake that was hurriedly slithering toward my direction. I didn't know what else to do as it all happened so fast, so I just moved as far away from it and RAN!!! Th...

  8km and recap of last week There are weeks like this week, when I have nothing much to say. It's the same ole same ole week after week. The same workouts, the same dusty tracks, the same distance. But, today I ran my first 8km!!! :D I never thot I could run that far... Wow. It's amazing what these short legs can do :P It was a very slow run though... I did it in about 58 mins and trying not to exhaust myself early in, I tried to run at 85% HR... but it was hard to maintain after a while. The last few kms were at 90 - 9...
