Already feeling the positive effects of the new training schedule and #TheSkinnyRules

Dear James, Daniel and Emily


Followed the route that I took by accident last week. A good portion of it involves uphill, with a couple of good hills, followed by a good, relatively steep downhill. That's part of the new plan I have: Mondays are long run, Wednesdays are hills, Fridays are tempo, Sundays are easy recovery runs.

And that is working out real well so far. The hills are getting easier, and the long runs are getting longer. Which should put me in good stead for the races I plan to run. I have a 10K in a week and a half. And then a 10 mile race 2 weeks later. Then about a month to the Half Marathon. All of that should stack up neatly as far as being prepped for the Half.

As far as the Skinny Rules I am beginning to slowly notice how my tastes are slowly adapting to less hyper flavors, and beginning to enjoy more subtle flavors. It is a welcome change. And it makes the eating of things like plain Greek Yogurt and oatmeal a little easier.
