AM: 4

PM: 5 Back in the USA from a week in france.  Have been bad about posting here even before that.  I will be driving up to providence tomorrow and the next day and hopefully then having people to run with will make a big difference in my motivation.  And getting away from home I will again be in control of my schedule and what I eat.  I have to get back on a good diet and running schedule and I am also thinking I am going to not drink during the week anymore.  It is a time waster, a calorie dump, I eat more when I drink on top of that, and I sleep poorly when I drink.  It is a sacrifice I need to make.

AM: 4 from the shitty hotel

PM: met bedoukian and we went to some trails and he destroyed me lol.  I hadn't eaten almost anything that day (was driving all day and didn't stop but once for gas).  I seriously hit the wall and we had to walk the last mile probably lol. Very embarrasing.

AM: 3.65 india point park loop

PM: 5 roger williams short + a very vigorous 30min of paddle boat in the mid afternoon lol.  Feeling decent considering the drastic mileage change.  Its sad that Im considering this a lot but it was a big change from almost nothing.  Will definitely get in the 70-80mpw next week.  Might but probably wont this week.

AM: 3.65 india point park. Hard to wake up.  Its scary but I think for a long time I was waking up from the booze wearing off and I had a small amount of withdrawl every day.  Now that I am not drinking (not at all, but just once per week... I had 3 glasses of wine on sunday but other than that I have been sober since last wednesday). Sounds pathetic, but oh well. Once per week I think is pretty darn little.

 PM: 8 with the running club.  Of course they went super fast because it was the first day and 70+ ppl showed up.  I know how this goes.  First day 70, second day 15, third day you have the 4-5 that will stick with it.  We got like 8 ppl for the 8 mile loop (aka the haynes classic).

AM: slept horribly so no morning run.  cant make that an excuse in the future.  But I am hoping that I can get in good enough shape that I can run 11 miles per day in 1 run in the evening because during pediatrics and my sub-internship in october/november I will be starting at or before 6am which makes a morning run somewhat difficult to fit in.

PM: 8 on the haynes classic.

AM: 15 on the bike path with some running club ppl.  Then ate a quick sandwich before meeting the outing club ppl for a 16 mile bike, 2 hour kayak, and 16 mile bike back... sqeezed in some fried fish eating in there somewhere.  Pretty tired after this 6 hours of continuous exercise.

pm: 10.2 this guy on the club skylar wants to run 10-12 miles a day and that would allow me to hit good mileage without doubling.  If my body allows me to do that then that would save a lot of time.
