I choose one focus #fitness

Dear James, Daniel and Emily


Made a decision over the weekend. I'm gonna do my best to fulfill the Webb Wilder Credo:

work hard, rock hard, eat hard, sleep hard, grow big, wear glasses if you need 'em!
Well not so much on that grow big part, I'm actually gonna try to minimize that. And I don't exactly 'rock' but you know it's more of a guideline than a rule.

Actually let's take that and modify it:

Play hard, run hard, eat well, sleep hard, parent hard, wear glasses 'cause I need 'em! 

How is that? Make more sense for me? 

What this boils down to is I decided that I really only have so much will-width (willpower + bandwidth). And it is in my best interest to focus what I do have on my running. Getting up at 0 Dark thirty 3-4 days a week and dragging myself out to run around the West Side. I'm not going to let my eating go entirely, I will continue to try to eat well, not too much crap, or late night snacks etc. But my focus is on making sure I run, not on skipping that snack or counting calories.

And at least for last week that worked, I got in my 4 days worth or running, back to double digit mileage for the week. And I am going to be sure to follow the program and not push too much so I don't hurt myself while my body rebuilds its strength.
