this week so far....

Well, back into a routine is nice, my mood is a lot better not that i train and have these endorphine kicking in!!! I m not grumpy anymore!

Monday was a usual swim 4km, bike 90min and run 50min

Tuesday: Bike 3h and felt terrible on the bike.... no power!!! and a nice 50min run in the heat!!! felt good

Wednesday: 1;20run, 4km swim 40min run. I was so tired at the end of that day.... that should usual be easy for me but not right now...

Today, 3h30 ride with 5 climb.... one cat 1 and one HC!!! each climb done at high sweating rate! I m about 10lbs over my normal race weight so it s been hard to feel good on the bike. I finished the day with 50min run and it was toasty again

So, i m only 5 weeks from imc and still 10lbs heavier. I m now on the not fat and eat fast diet. The way it work is i m only allowed to eat twice in the day. I eat at the same time as Diablo(OUR dog!!) and i m only allowed to eat as long as the dog eat. And he is very fast at finishing is food so i usualy only have 2-3 minutes to eat as much as i can and then, my next meal is only at 7pm..... it s very hard mentaly and i get really sick on these long rides with water only and no food but it sure asnt kill the dog so i try to tell myself i should be ok!

time for bed... 6kmTT swim tomorow... i m going after the 1500m world record and confident i will beat it!

I suppose it'll work if you restrict calories enough, but eating twice a day isn't a great way to lose weight. Sumo wrestlers eat one or two large meals a day to *gain* weight!

Holy crap Jonnyo... You sure that eating routine is good for your health? You just coming back from a tough stretch.

I completly understand the crazy stuff we sometimes do to "get down" to race weight, but ain't this a bit extreme...

But then again, that might be why your a pro and I am a MOP AG!!

Cheers from Hull!

jonnyo- perhaps you should consider the cat diet, you can supplement your meals with rodents, bugs, and birds!
