So my race plan was already altered and I am not even a week in! Not a big deal though. The CNJRR Hangover 5K was rescheduled due to snow & ice. It will now be run on January 30th so I will have a month before my first race of the year. Speaking of races, I also signed up for the NJ Marathon which will be run on May 1st. With my ultimate goal of a 100-miler in Spring 2012 my thoughts are to get in the NJ Marathon in early May, a posible 50K this summer, a 50 Miler in fall (Late 2011, will also act as my Umstead Qualifier) leaving me an additional 4-5 months to prepare for my first 100. Thoughts for a 50 Miler are the following: Can Lake 50M, Tussey MoutainBack, or the JFK 50M.
Thats the easy part, now for the running. Getting back into the swing of things hasn't been that easy. I am carrying around WAY to much weight and it is probably not a good thing. Part of my journey is going to be getting back to a healthy weight, somewhere in the 180-190 range. I am not going to turn to a specific "diet" as I always seem to derail on those things. Rather, I am going to get myself back into healthy eating habits, eliminating all the junk food and just being conscious of what I put in my body.
My starting stats as of December 28, 2010:
Weight - 225.4 lbs
Body Fat % - 30.7 %
I will be updating my workouts on daily mile so check me out at http://www.dailymile.com/people/MartyW4#ref=tophd and feel free to "friend" me.
