Not much to say!

SWIM 600y 20 mins, just killing time (monday)
BIKE 18mi 60 mins, trainer (Tuesday)
STRENGTH 50mins (tuesday)
RUN 6.5mi 55 mins, FP run (Thursday)

Rain, rain, GO AWAY! I'd love to commute to work but the weather these past few weeks has stopped me. Bummer to miss the cool weather. I'm enjoying the Thursday morning runs lately, I've found that I can push myself to hold a higher pace. Usually I just step back the pace thinking I'll burn out otherwise. In fact, I can hold the pace pretty well! Another Redman lesson...I'm stronger than I realize.

Pain report: right ankle still not 100%, hurts on the inside near the instep. Feels tight mostly, hopefully it shakes out before the half mary on Sunday. Also have a pleasant post-strength training pain in the gluts and legs from the 50 min WO on the Wii. Can't believe the Wii WO can stop me like this, I think it was all the squat jumps!

Nutrition report: still enjoying the PB theory. Sometimes I want to buy the book, other times I don't think I need it. My meals are starting to look the same everyday: veggie omelete, big ass salad, then dinner. Need to get some variety in there! I surf the primal recipe pages but I don't see much other than meats prepared different ways. Then again, I lack food imagination so reading a recipe doesn't conjure up flavors for me, it's just words. I might do better to read other peoples food logs for ideas. Also need to watch the snacking. Funny thing is, I'm used to snacking after having to eat every 3 hrs for the past few years. When I stop myself, I find I'm really not hungry and just snacking out of habit! On the plus side, I've found a few new foods I love: cashew butter, coconut oil, veggies in coconut oil, almond meal. All yummy!
