It's been a while... back with a focus!

Well, I've decided to update the old blog again. I might be the only person who ever reads it, but that's okay. I'd like to use it to track my current training plan and workouts. I might as well write about them here rather than bore my friends and family to tears. It's also nice to have a record of some of my favourite recipes.

The goal race... Sugarloaf 15k

My 10 week training plan begins tomorrow! The first couple of weeks are relatively easy and my mileage is pretty low throughout the plan since it's only a 15k. I've been base building since January 1st when I had to essentially start running all over again. I was quite sick for 3 months and was unable to do any exercise during that time.

No exercise + someone who enjoys food + too sick to cook good food = weight gain

Since January, I have definitely returned to my preferred way of cooking and eating. Processed foods are limited and lots of healthy, fresh foods are back in the mix. I've also been baking all of our bread since Christmas to avoid some of the nasty ingredient lists. I'll share my favourite no-knead (no work!) bread recipe in another post.

Goals:
10k on May 13th
15k on May 20th
Half? on June 24th

Training week one begins tomorrow!

No-knead bread recipe... later... it is AMAZING.
