One of my running buddies collapsed on our run today. Tunnel vision, loss of balance, spasms/fit. Thankfully only a few hundred yards from road and help.
That's so scary! Hope they're ok now and get checked out!
I'm so tired today... Been falling asleep reading/watching TV the past couple nights, then can't sleep when I do go to bed for an hour or so. I'm at the gym doing weights, but I can already tell it's going to be one of those meh workouts. At least I'm here, right?...

The thinking is it's along the arrhythmia lines. Further investigations to follow. We've a half planned for April and time will tell how this affects his training.
Got a little lazy over the weekend with visitors in the house and ate a good deal of takeout. Scale went up a pound. Back on the wagon and some good home cooking this week!

Holy pumpkin balls!! I've lost track of how long I've been doing paleo, and I haven't tracked calories in over a week because there's no way I can go over unless I cheat... And who counts calories on their cheat days?
This morning I made paleo pumpkin pie balls. Nuts, pumpkin puree, and dates. I ate a couple spoonfuls and left for work. I felt drugged for over an hour. Guess that means I'm pretty sensitive to sugar....
I went for a run today, first time in weeks...I only went less than two miles, but it was 47 and rainy and wind gusting to 40 mph, so I think I get a bonus for that!
I made it to yoga three times this week! As much as I love being busy it sure feels good to take care of me. Also, I finally lost some weight!! I've been the same freaking weight for three weeks. 1?3.4 lbs. Today I was 1?2.8! yayyy
Weights and ellipticals today. Also time for a new belt! Woo hoo! When I started, I was on the last available hole, and now it's too big. Didn't realize that until I got new jeans today.

That kind of tangible process is so great! Way to go!
I've decided to step back from running for now. If I get really motivated I'll go, but between the weather and my backslide of fitness it's just not doing me any good to feel guilty about not running, procrastinate getting ready, then go out and suffer in the cold for 30 minutes, then come back in. At least if I just bundle myself and go for a walk I can get a good hour of exercise and fresh air!
