Talking to people that have run a marathons before they all agree the long runs must happen. I have decided that Saturday or Sunday will be my long runs depending on weather and my social calendar. I'm back on my 5 small meals a day and watching my beer consumption.As some of you know that this is become increasingly difficult. As of a month ago I have been brewing for DuClaw. It is a fantastic opportunity for an old married guy with kids to work in a profession that I have been working towards the last 6+ years. So this is where the self discipline comes in...a chubby guy surrounded by beer at a time he needs to focus on working out and hopefully being a couple pounds lighter by the time he has to haul his ass 26.2 miles. We will hope for the best but expect the worst.
Good luck brotha! And keep up the awesome work for those DuClaw guys.
ReplyDeleteWow, sounds awesome to be brewing for DuClaw! Happy first training week, you'll kick its butt.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, run steady.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck Milhouse! If the guys at DuClaw force you to take beer home, I'd gladly drink them for you so you aren't adding unneeded calories into the tank of the running machine. :)
