Thursday

Every passing day, I get more nervous about missing another day of running.  AFC keeps getting closer.  I've got my fingers crossed that Saturday's return to the pavement will find my calf up for the task.  What if it's not?

I did Renee's spin class today.  That's twice in the same week.  I'm not sure I've ever done her class on both Tuesday and Thursday.  It was very lightly attended today.  Might have been the nice weather outside; our first sunny day in what seems like forever.  I don't know.  I put in a strong effort (tried to visualize myself climbing the Pyrenees like Alberto Contador) and feel I worked at an average of 90% or so. 

I'm trying not to make too much out of it -- though it's hard not to -- but my weight has been elevated for a few days now.  I figure I should be right at 145, but I'm fluctuating between 146 and 146.5.  I know well enough that weight can move by 2-3 lbs daily and it takes time for fat to reconstitute. To have added half a pound of fat, I'd have to be off my daily tracking by 1700 calories somewhere.  Can't be that I'm overestimating calories-burned.  It's more likely that I'm slipping in extra calories eaten. 

I really want to stabilize at 145 and 15% body fat.  I need to crack the whip a little more, I guess, and quit cheating with the late night nosh.
