SLACKER

So I am a serious slacker. We were doing really well preparing for the marathon and then Pete started to get pretty bad shin splints. I found that running was, in a very perverse way, relaxing; but I wasn't seeing any changes in my body. I was able to prop my Kindle up on the treadmill, bump up the font, and read while I ran. I was eating really well, and GAINING weight. Yeah I know, muscle weighs more than fat. I call bullshit. I have lost over 15% in body fat since last April when I started hitting the gym more. I feel better, I am stronger, but my pants still fit the same. Maybe I am at my maintenance weight. If so, that sucks. Skinny was never my goal, it was all about being healthier and stronger, skinny would be an awesome bonus.

I will be posting weekly to help keep record of what I am doing. Consider this my fitness/exercise journal.
