Thu 8/2 - Cardio

Cardio:

• Ran 3 miles, c/d 6 mins, did a 5 minute plank.  

Ran at work because I had an early meeting at the office, meetings pretty much all day and a lot to get done.  Run was OK, but it was in the mid 90's.  I hadn't done any core all week so I had just enough time for a couple of minutes of core work....meaning not much time before my next meeting (similar to Tuesday in that I had an hour between 2 meetings that I had to squeeze in a run, cool down, shower and dress).  Anyway, not much time so I decided to see how long I could hold a plank.  I held it for 5 minutes.  That's the longest I've ever held a plank. I think that's pretty good.

Nutrition:
Low carb day today.  Calories and macros pretty much right on where I wanted them.  In some ways these days are easier because I never really get started in on the carbs.  On medium carb days, I start eating them (because I can) and it's harder to stop than not starting at all.  That said, I look forward to eating an apple tomorrow.  I do love me a good apple lately and it really feels like a treat.  Is that sick?  I did have a banana today though.
