    230 when I woke up this morning and 232.5 after run tonight Run was 5 miles in 43 minutes – it felt pretty awful to tell the truth.  I felt nauseous several times during the run and was having trouble getting motivated. I missed the last 2 days of running for a variety of reasons…

    230 when I woke up and 225 after 20 mile run. I managed to get in the 20 mile run this morning after all – yay!  The day started out looking not too good as when I got to the park to start my run there were a crap load of cars around.  They also…

    229 when I woke up and 227.5 after morning run. I was 227 yesterday morning when I got up and we had pizza last night so I think that showed in my weight this morning. Run this morning was 10 miles – things didn’t work for time to run outside this morning so I put…

    231 first thing in the morning and 229.5 after run in the evening Weight yesterday was 233 when I got up – not good – this was probably due to a road trip on the weekend and eating out on Monday.  Monday was a holiday here in Canada and the restaurant effected my system and…
