Exercising The Franchise. And some self control.

Job done. I ran my 3 miles in a cracking time of 26:25 then went onto vote; sweated & stank out my local polling station; and ran home. The over all pace of 8m51sec is encouraging, especially given the low Avg HR of 132bpm, but is probably too fast. I'll peg it back to 9min/mile pace for just now.

I noticed a marginal weight gain this AM. It could just be added leg muscle & the fact that my clever scales - they weigh me & measure my foot to foot impedence & calculate how much of me is fat - say that my percentage fat has dropped a little, backs this up.

All the same I need to start thinking about limiting my intake if I'm to lose weight at sufficient rate to allow me to force up my pace without wrecking my Achilles. Cutting out all cakes, sweeties, alcohol & carbohydates should do it. 8 -(
