Tuesday

Look at the bright side; it's not raining until maybe this weekend. Plus you love to run!

Michael
Three rounds for time of:
Run 800 meters
50 Back Extensions
50 Sit-ups 

Don't neglect your stretching/band work.

 

Getting back on an even keel nutrition wise? If you have questions abut the serious-rules-paleo, here are their guidlines:

1. YES to meat, seafood, vegetables, some fruit, eggs, nuts, and seeds.  Beef, pork, chicken, lamb, seafood, tuna, salmon, shrimp.  Avocado, asparagus, arugula, spinach, broccoli, celery, sweet potatoes, yams, any type of leafy green, red cabbage, artichoke.  Berries, melon, pomegranate.  Chicken eggs, ostrich eggs. (no Do Do eggs).   Almonds, brazil nuts, walnuts.
2. No to processed foods.  Pretty much anything in the middle of the grocery store.  Can't recognize it growing or running around in the wild?  Don't eat it.
3. No to sugar.  Doesn't matter if it's super natural 100% organic fair trade sugar from the honey of communitarian bees, ITS STILL SUGAR.  No sweeteners, no agave nectar, honey or maple syrup.
4. No grains. This includes bread, rice, pasta, cereal, oatmeal, corn and all of those gluten-free pseudo-grains like quinoa and sprouted grains.
5. No to legumes. Peanuts, peanut-butter, beans, peas, lentils.
6. No to dairy.  Milk, cheese, yogurt, etc.
7. Less alcohol.  No sugary mixers, no beer or alcohols containing gluten.  
8. Fewer sweet fruits and starchy vegetables.  Bananas, eating a bunch of apples, dried fruit, or white potatoes.  (If you have serious inflammation issues like arthritis, you may want to consider avoiding all nightshades for 30 days.)
9. Cook with real fats.  If you're cooking, then cook with lard or animal fat.  If you don't have that, then cook with coconut oil, olive oil, or butter.  (with thanks to Hunter-Gatherer)

Stick with it!

And in the spirit of good low carb living, make sure and watch the CF Journal interview with Gary Taubes. Here's a link to the main site teaser MAC / WMV. Somewhere in his work, focused on low carb and higher fat intake, lies the answer to a healthier, more athletic you.

25:59 - unanchored sit ups. Holy crap and kudos to all you FloJos out there! Seeing the times throughout the day gave me a range to shoot for...Uh, I blew right past. Its like bowling, right? High score wins? Let the record show, I remain...a non-runner. Oh well. My boss-friend, John, bowled a 30:13...yay team! :)

33:00 with a few minutes for helping Julie. Rowed 5K also.

Nice chit chat guys.

I hope to see the AM crowd tomorrow as I'll be bored at a board meeting manana.

Mike and Suzie got me in trouble today.....
Ps.. I still think the turnaround point was questionable.... Hahaha

But seriously you did great baby!!

I wore my Suzie inspired "Incredibles" tshirt
Must be the shirt...

[NLH]

Well, I do..and your posts are great fun. Thanks for the primer on contrails.

[Betsy Young]

Okay, I'll admit it...I had to look up contrails. Short for condensation trails produced by fast things like a Blair. Good job, girl! I'm doing the math and on my best day [last Friday] I busted out 800m in just under 4:00 minutes, that's 12 minutes for just running, assuming I can keep that pace up, and then 5 minutes to do 150 sit ups and 150 back extensions. YOU ROCK!!! Maybe I'll just keep Julie company running if she's still there when I get there tonight :)
I can't recall, NLH.

[Blair]

Thanks kids...
Mike R.... It's always a pleasure doing business with you my friend...
Jud.... This cute guy I know hooked me up....
Matty.... Thanks honey!!! Great time!!

[jud]

Julie,
Are you gonna post a time or are you still running?

Remember, you've got to work on your weak areas too, a great snatch will only get you so far.
