just rounding up the tail end of week 3 of my (heehee) marathon training.

i feel like i'm cheating or something cause the distances are so short. and since i'm not actually running a race at the end of the training program and i'm just doing it cause i like structure, i'm not being anal about my diet. which is nice for a change. everytime one of us at home here has taken on a program, it's total lifestyle overhaul.

not this time baby! we're too busy for overhauls. one giant one in the past year was hard enough for little nymphtress!

outcomes of these past 3 weeks

1- more shapely ass. no complaints there!
2- more energy, especially in the mornings.
3- waking up at 5am to go running, great cause the sun's fully up by then. (although i think j prefers sleeping in at this point in his uni life *giggle*)
4- tendancy to eat better brekkies. my fave: diced fresh fruit (queensland has a great selection of local mangoes, pineapples, kiwi, passionfruit, melon, apples, no bananas at the moment... still suffering from the storm in march... peaches, nectarines, yumyumyum!) with puffed amaranth, sunflower seeds, green punkin seeds and plain yoghurt. the mangoes totally make our breakfasts awesome.
5 - need more coffee in afternoons. this is bad. little nymphtress does not handle coffee addictions well and she is very much addicted. will stock up on advil if i decide to cut it out.
6 - nice tan lines :/
7 - early bed times. it's only 8pm and i'm tired. and today's a rest day!!!
8 - more leverage with j; "i'm just too tired to clean the kitchen!"
9 - happier
10 - smellier

i have a problem with numb feet... or, well, one numb foot. i am currently asking for advice on the slowtwitch forums. let me know what forums you use too so i can watch & learn more.

i'm so sleepy i can't keep writing!

happy training kiddies :)
