Fat Man Running

So I lounged around for the weekend and then decided to pick my C25K training back up again.  So we’ll say this is Week 1 Day 1! :)  Good session today, I did about 1.75 miles.  Slowly but surely I’ll get there.  Back and neck are 99% recovered, so tomorrow is weight training.  Really need to build core muscle strength.

Somewhat amusingly I’d never heard of this movie before I put up the site.  So when I finally saw the trailer I had to laugh.  Boy do I understand ;)  Unfortunately I’m still at the “Walk fat boy, walk!” stage.  My legs are slowly hurting less.  Soon maybe I’ll be able to do more than 22 minutes on 3.3 on the treadmill and not feel like my shins have been spint with an axe.  Ah, to dream!

In other news, I got my Bodybugg yesterday and have been obsessed with it.  I really like the little bugger.  The arm band is a bit uncomfortable and tends to slide around more than I like, but I really dig the real-time feedback it gives me!  It has a couple limitations… the most obvious being that it does not measure heartrate.  They are trying to put it in the next version, but I do miss having it.  Second is that you obviously have to accurately enter your food journal.  Now I realize that it’s great to have a food journal, and it certainly gives me a real view of what I eat.  But man is it a pain!  Also it doesn’t have an option for a low carb diet, so it’s impossible to make their numbers align with what I am eating other than calories.
