I think your diet just needs a bit of a tidy up and I think it might be best to break this down a little. For example: focus on a a great healthy lunch for the next week and a good solid snack mid-morning & mid-afternoon (as want you to eat little and often and feel not so hungry at night). Snack ideas:
Try to avoid too many extra handouts in office or if have these snacks then don't have your own.
The only thing I suggest you do at dinner is weigh out (dried weight/not cooked) what you think you have of rice or pasta etc and post these weights just so I can check these. You should be aiming for 3 meals and 3 snacks (mid-morning, mid afternoon and before bed if wish) and this way you should not get so hungry but no meal should be huge.
My main reason for the above suggestions is to try and get you to eat consistently as I think you days can be a little haphazard at moment as not planning snacks and meals well enough when in office as this is not helping weight but you may disagree?
Day 29 - Asics Target 26.2 Paris Marathon Training (14/01/13)
Target: 4 mile jog (9:20 - 10:00m/m).
Actual: 4.17miles in 39:10 @ 9:24m/m
Mile Splits: 1st: 9:16m/m. 2nd: 9:16m/m. 3rd: 9:17m/m. 4th: 9:18m/m.
There's something therapeutic and primal about running in the snow. It's probably the weather I enjoy running in the most. As big white flakes fell outside, I was counting down the minutes until my recovery run. Disappointingly 10 minutes before I was due to run the snow was replaced with rain and yet again I had no option to go out and get soaked.
I received a few funny looks as I ventured outside in skimpy shorts. I don't blame them, as I wished I was staying inside with a hot lunch inside me!
Apart from the wintry weather, there is little to add from today's run. I ran my normal lunch time route. I stuck very closely to my pacing guideline. My mind focused on work I had to finish after my run. I did a quick stretch in the rain after my run.
With my estimated time for the Paris Marathon reduced from 3:36 to 3:33, it's probably a good job today was a slow run. It's nice to know I'm moving in the right direction!
Here's my run from today:
As the Garmin website was down yesterday, here's my run from yesterday as well (7.49miles on hilly course):
Barnsley Runner........thanks for the advice and info regarding the fastest Parkruns you've done. I was thinking of doing Bushey Park, but looked at alternatives when I saw there are about 1000+ finishers every week, which might make it more difficult to get a free, hassle-free run. I was looking at Crane Park which is just down the road near Teddington. It says that it's fast and flat, so hopefully this will offer me the chance to PB in my next Parkrun!
Mel........I'm sorry to hear you had a similar experience with your Parkrun as well. I will happily share that big bar of chocolate with you when no-one's looking and checking what I'm eating!
Guildford was an enjoyable Parkrun, but I don't think it's suitable if you're looking to go fast. But if you like a challenge!
I still haven't had the chance to try the kurly kale crisp recipe. I should be making my first batch this coming weekend. I'll let you know how it goes! Congratulations on having your estimated finish time lowered as well. That shows your training is going well!
Malcs.........I definitely agree with you that you must have something in place to account for the extra mileage you run during a race due to not following the racing line. The first few times it happened, I stupidly thought the course had been measured incorrectly. As it has happened on every single race, I know that I'm the problem!
Excellent news that you've entered Spitfire as well. I'm sure we will be running around the same pace as well, so it'll certainly be nice to have the company!
Sam........thanks for the updated training program and improved pacing times. I've already sourced a fast, flat Parkrun for week 8 (Crane Park near Teddington), so this should be a better pointer to how far I've come.
Ruth.........I completely agree with your advice. It makes perfect sense. I'll try and add more substantial (healthy) snacks into daily eating. Due to my job, I do struggle with getting my snacks in at the right time, or missing them altogether. Sometimes this is out of my control due to meetings. But I definitely need to increase my intake of food during the day so I'm not as hungry in the evenings. I've already increased the size of my lunch and re-introduced carbs. I do like the sound of 3 meals and 3 good snacks though every day!
The handouts at work were more of a Christmas thing, so they shouldn't be an issue any more. I will add the weights of my dinner the next time for you to assess. Hopefully you won't fall off your chair when you read them!
My weight loss has improved since Xmas and New Year has finished. Last week I lost 2lbs, so I'm hoping a continued improvement in my diet and eating patterns can only make this better! Thanks for the advice. I'll let you know how I get on.
Calorie Watch! Food & Drink Diary - Sunday 13th January 2013
I've been extremely lucky enough to live, work and travel in various places around the globe. I've eaten many delicacies, national dishes and delights. But nothing beats a home-cooked Sunday roast. It's one of my favourite times of the week. I'm lucky to have a wife who likes to cook. Otherwise I don't think I would enjoy them as often! After a very pleasing hill session, I might have turned a blind eye to a few extra roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings that found their way on to my plate!
8:30am: Breakfast - Fruit and Fibre cereal with added chai seeds and semi-skimmed milk. Cup of tea, 500ml bottle of water.
10:30am - Hill training session - 7.5 miles (please see earlier post for full update of this run).
11:45am - Water, glass of chocolate milk.
2:30pm - Lunch (didn't want to ruin my roast lunch by snacking beforehand!) - 1 plate of roast beef, steamed broccoli, roast potatoes, roast onions, garlic, carrots and potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. Piece of homemade coffee and walnut cake (nowhere near as big as what I would previously have eaten!). Blackcurrant squash. Fizzy blackcurrant juice (to replace the normal wine!) and tea.
7:00pm - Dinner (no snacking today due to a filling lunch and having friend's visiting) - Yogurt with handful of walnuts, raisins, apricots and dates. Orange and glass of Clementine juice. Water.
9:00pm - Tea and handful of pistachio nuts.
Week 4 Weight Loss Watch!
Starting Weight: 162.8lbs (Target Weight: 148lbs)
Weight After Week 1: 162.2lbs (-0.6lbs) (Xmas Parties!)
Weight After Week 2: 161.9lbs (-0.3lbs) (Xmas!)
Weight After Week 3: 160.7lbs (-1.2lbs) (New Year!)
Weight After Week 4: 159.2lbs (-1.5lbs)
Total Loss: 3.6lbs
Now Xmas and New Year festivities are a distant memory, weight loss has been much easier. I'm elated at this week's loss. I still haven't touched a drop of alcohol in the New Year either and I think it's cutting these 'empty' calories out that have proved to be the biggest winner. Reading the advice from Ruth though, I do know there are plenty of improvements still to make.
Considering this weekend I ate Chinese (albeit a healthy one!), a roast dinner and nice slice of coffee and walnut cake, this week's weight loss could have been even higher. My target has always been 1lb per week and I'm almost back on track for this now.
It's not the difference in weight when I step on the scales that has proved to be the biggest motivating factor for me. It's the difference I can see in my body as well. I asked my wife to take a photo of me the day before training started. What I saw repulsed me. It was grotesque, flabby and Homor-esq. I couldn't believe that I had ran several marathons looking like this last year. Even more shocking was I was almost the same weight when I ran my PB marathon. It wasn't at all a pretty sight.
I've thought long and hard whether to add this photo to the forum. It certainly doesn't portray me in the best of lights. I don't think I even have a best side looking like this. But sadly, this is the reality I was dealing with when I started training and looking at this photo makes me realise how much effort I have to continue putting in to reach the starting line of Paris with a fighting chance of a sub 3:30 time. It's definitely a good job I didn't look like this when romancing my wife to be. I'd still be single now! Apologies of this offends!
Now that Mrs. Shady Ady has become accustomed to her husband wearing ill-fitting lycra, I asked her to take another photo after my fourth week of training had ended. The difference speaks for itself and I hope I can continue to see the love handles and squidgy parts rapidly shrinking away.
I'll be interested to see what differences are evident after the next photois taken at the end of week 8!
Ady - I have to admit that the Spartathlon is a long term project for me. The plan is to get qualified this year, attempt my first one next year (more as a recce to get a feel for what it is like - without really expecting to make all the cut-offs) and then put together a plan for trying to complete it... With regard to Badwater - I don't think I will ever do it, firstly because my running CV just isn't crazy enough and also beacuse I'm much better running in cold conditions than hot - which makes Badwater a really bad idea... Hope to bump into you again over the next few months as our goals are pretty similar (almost identical times a week apart).
Great progress on the spare tyre!
Hi Ady,
Big differences in those photos there, top work, keep it going!
Just wanted to come over and answer the question you asked re. gels on my long run.
My plan or strategy for the use of gels is going to be 1 gel every 5 miles, so will take one at 6, 11, 16, 21 miles during the race. But I'm only going to make sure the gels agree with me in training, I'm not going to use them on all my long runs.
I tried the GU gels on Sundays run and they went down well so I'm going to go back to runs without fuel now and just have 1 more test run with the same gels in another month or so to make sure they are ok with me. I want my body to be used to using its own reserves so when I do take a gel during the race it has a noticeable effect.
I really noticed a difference when I had each gel. After about 15 - 20 minutes post taking one I got a little bit of a kick for about 20 minutes. It did give me a boost. I don't use anything normally on my longer runs, just water.
Great advice from A.W, Ady. I'd suggest trying the no fuelling strategy for the long run in week 6, i fyou want to try it on a relatively long outing, as that run is off-road, less pace-focused AND comes off the back of the training day, so you should be suitably depleted . NOT week 5, when it's all about getting the paces right.
I probably use the same gel timings as A.W if you translate it in to time, rather than miles. I will typically have one at about 45 minutes, and then one every 40-45 minutes after that. I'm also a big believer in caffeine use. It definitely works for me, it's legal and every little helps, as they say!
Ady - what can I say? At the outset you promised to share everything with us, warts and all, and you've certainly delivered. I don't think I'd have been brave enough to post any shots of me in lycra so hats off to you. And wow, what a change - very impressive, you must be really pleased. Six pack by week 8?
Ruth - I see you suggested malt loaf as a snack. What is 'pre-sliced' and why would it be any different from unsliced (like your average loaf of Soreen) have I missed something? Also, what are hot cross buns or fruit teacakes like - are they acceptably nutritious? I eat them quite often as a snack thinking I'm being relatively healthy but all this talk of nutrition has me wondering.
Day 30 - Asics Target 26.2 Paris Marathon Training (15/01/13)
Target: 5 miles FAST (7:20-7:35m/m) (Suggest structuring this as 1 mile easy, 3.5 miles FAST, 1 mile easy)
Actual: 5.78miles in 45:33 @ 7:53m/m (1 mile easy, 3.5 miles FAST, 1 mile easy)
Splits: W/Up: 1.15miles @ 8:58m/m. Fast: 3.51miles @ 7:13m/m. C/Down: 1.11miles @ 8:53m/m
A rarity today - running in sunshine! It might have been almost freezing, but a spot of sun makes running in this temperature so much easier to do.
My left knee was a little stiff when I set off, but it didn't take long for my legs to get warmed-up and the stiffness subsided. In the past when I've been asked to run 'fast' I've struggled to keep close to the pacing time required. Instead I've gone up to 30 seconds faster than what was asked for.
Today I made a conscious effort to hold back slightly. Before the run, I was extremely tempted to use the 3.5 miles as a 5km race situation and run it as fast as I possibly could. Luckily common sense prevailed and I ran it as my training session suggested. A new 5km PB will have to wait a little while longer. On this showing though, if I have a nice flat, fast course, then chances should be high.
Out of all my speed and interval sessions, I enjoy the fast continuous runs the best. Although I've ran faster in training, this session really felt like my lungs got a good work out and it was nice to keep an almost identical pace throughout the 3.5 miles.
Here's my run from today:
Evening all!
Frazerelli.......I actually didn't know that GPS devices over-estimate pace. I obviously need to go even faster than I thought I needed to. Bring on the challenge!
Sarah.....Thanks for the compliment. I'll learn to be more positive in the future I promise! My long runs are coming up to your levels now. Very much looking forward to the build-up 15.5 miles I have this weekend!
Slow Duck......Hats off to you. I can see why the Spartathlon is a long term project. I watched a youtube video of a vegan attempting to run it. It was this that put the race on the radar. I think the cut-off's are even harder than the distance itself.
I can see why you think Badwater is not the best idea. It just looks insane. Hopefully see you back at the Guildford Parkrun in the near future. I'm also running Dorney Lake Race Your Pace Half Marathon and Spitfire 20 as well before Paris.
Alex.......Thanks for the post and info. It seems both you and Sam have a similar strategy. The last marathon I ran, I used 6 gels, but I think 4 is a more reasonable and sustainable amount to take (and to carry). Excellent idea regarding not taking gels on every long run, so you notice the difference. I'll change my plan now of using them on every run. Thanks for the tips.
Sam.......I'll follow yours and Alex's wise words and fuel during this week's long run, but use only water the following week. The gels I used last time had caffeine in and I really found this gave me a better kick than the same gels I've used without the added caffeine. Like you say, every little helps!
Malcs........Well, there was a slight selfish reason for posting those photos as well. In the past when I've started losing weight, as soon as I've noticed a difference, I start allowing myself to eat the foods I had cut out in the first place - as a treat. Of course, I then put the weight straight back on and end up where I started. I thought by adding the photos (apart from shocking myself and turning most people away from reading this forum page!) it will act as an added incentive to me to keep up the healthy eating as I know I'm going to post another photo in 8 weeks.
I want to see another noticeable difference then as well. As for the 6-pack, I've pencilled that in to the 12 week photo!
I also thought the same as you've asked Ruth regarding the malt loaf. Maybe if you have to cut it yourself, you're more likely to add an extra inch to the slice! That would be my excuse for doing it!
Calorie Watch! Food & Drink Diary - Sunday 13th January 2013
There's nothing better than getting into work on a Monday morning and finding out that once the normal morning meetings are over, the rest of the morning will be spent on a training course. Nothing against these meetings and training, but I find it much harder to fit my snacks in and stay hydrated when I'm in them. As per Ruth's advice earlier, I have tried to increase the size of my lunch to stop feeling so hungry in the evening.
6:45am Breakfast - Fruit and Fibre cereal with added Chia seeds and semi-skimmed milk. Glass of Clementine juice.
8:45am - Cup of tea and bottle of water.
11:00am - Banana, bottle of water.
12:00pm - Running session - 4 mile jog (see earlier post for full description).
1:15pm - Beef, cucumber, tomato and lettuce sandwich w/ mustard and cayenne pepper in wholemeal bread. Clementine Bottle of water.
2:30pm - Cup of tea, bottle of water.
4:45pm - Bottle of water. Handful of pistachio nuts.
7:30pm - Cous-cous with a North-African spiced vegetable soup. Pint of blackcurrant squash.
8:30pm - Blueberry yoghurt. Green tea.
Ha, yes I think you've hit the nail on the head with the malt loaf But can you buy it pre-sliced? I've never seen it.
You're doing great on your food stuffs - Ruth will be loving you!
Malcs……I've never seen pre-sliced malt loaf either. I've had Soreen in a few goodie bags after races before and just ate it like it was a bun – no slicing required. Maybe Ruth's instruction were meant with my past behaviour in mind!
Actually, I think my intake would be better if everything I ate I bought pre-sliced. Some of the doorstop sized bacon sarnies I've made on a Sunday morning was virtually half a loaf for each slice of bread!
It's not been easy on the foodstuffs I have to admit. My body still craves sugar and I've had such a strong craving for burgers as well recently. Even the horse-meat uproar hasn't quelled this!
Sarah……Maybe it has been a bit warmer around where I live and work, as there wasn't any ice on the ground when I ran. I did my run at lunch and the sun had been out all morning, so maybe I was just lucky.
I think you did the wise thing not risking running and falling on some black ice. I see snow has been forecast for Friday and Saturday. Hopefully this doesn't affect either of our long runs. It might be difficult to try run at the paces I've been given if snow does come. I'll have to see what Sam says as to what alternative I could do instead!
Calorie Watch! Food & Drink Diary – Tuesday 15th January 2013
Although the sugar cravings are still continuing, it's a lot easier now to go the whole day without getting the urge for something sweet and sugary. Any leftover chocolate still in the house is now hidden away in cupboards. I read that the chance of eating such treats drops 70% if you can't actually see it! That said, with some of Mrs. Shady Ady's leftover coffee and walnut cake sitting proudly on the kitchen table, I might have succumbed to a few mouthfuls of this today.
6:45am Breakfast - Fruit and Fibre cereal with semi-skimmed milk. Glass of Clementine juice.
8:45am - Cup of tea (with Splenda)
11:15am - Banana, bottle of water, another cup of tea.
12:00pm – Running session – 5.8 miles including 3.5 fast (see above for full details).
1:15pm – Lunch – Bulgar Wheat (never heard of such a thing before reading Ruth's advice!) with cucumber, tomato and feta cheese mixed with a honey, white wine vinegar, chutney and olive oil dressing (just to add a little extra flavour). Not sure that Bulgar Wheat will find its' way on the menu every lunch! Clementine and Water
2:00pm - Cup of tea, bottle of water.
4:30pm – Cup of tea, bottle of water. (very repetitive!)
6:30pm - Apple
7:30pm – Homemade carrot, courgette and chickpea curry with cous-cous (two new grains in the same day must be a record!). Pint of blackcurrant squash.
8:30pm – Cup of tea, pint of water and a slither of walnut and coffee cake (the smallest piece of cake I've ever enjoyed eating!)
10:30pm – Pint of water before bed. Definitely not a good idea if you want a good, uninterrupted night's sleep afterwards!
Hello there,
I can officially confirm that there is indeed such a thing as pre-sliced Soreen as I have some in my kitchen cupboard! I guess it's recommended as can be more definitive about how many grams of carbs you've had etc. It's quite handy for when you are on the move (say, post-race in the car).
Hmm, bit worried about the weather this weekend, too. We have a group long run on Sunday (12 of the Rye Runners are training for Paris, too!) and a 3 by 10 mins at lactate threshold run on Saturday (followed by tea and cakes at Rye Harbour)
I decided to forgo the track last night and did mile reps on the mtn bike trail for better grip. Took 2.5 min recoveries just like you, Ady - important to experience the same levels of training pain as you
Hi Ady - been really busy at work so not posted but following your thread daily. That is an amazing difference in those photo's - well done mate!
Your running seems really strong as well. This is going to be your year!
Sam.........With so many of your running club going to be running in Paris, is there any part of you wishing you were running it too? Maybe you are actually are and will be running behind me the whole way armed with a sharp stick, so that every time I slow down you can poke me with it!
I bet you were able to keep a better speed up during your 2.5min recovery than me. Hopefully during my recoveries tomorrow I'll make an improvement to do the same! Hopefully you don't enjoy the pain too much, as that will obviously mean more pain for me too!
Paulo........It does seem all our goals are very similar. I'm hoping we both succeed! I'll even let you cross the line before me if we are both on for sub 3:30! I've been told that for my half marathon - the Human Race Dorney Lake Race Your Pace Half Marathon at Eton Dorney, I'm allowed to race this. There's enough time to recover before Paris.
My only concern is to be absolutely confident of the time I'm aiming for. I want to try my best not to go out too fast so I fade towards the end. I'd rather aim for 1:37 and increase my pace as the race goes on, rather than go for sub 1:35 and falter in the last few miles. I might be slightly slower, but mentally and confidence wise, I'll come out of it in a much better position.
I'm not sure I'm brave putting those photos on. Naive maybe! I did a fair bit of teaching English abroad during my twenties and I found the best way of getting a response from my students was to name and shame.........and this is what I've basically done to myself. I'm just using my own psychological mind games on me! I'm hoping the shame of seeing the first picture of myself will make sure I stay focused right up to the start line of Paris.
I will also keep an eye out to see if Sam recommends any alternative run on Saturday of there is much snow. Running on snow shouldn't be a problem, but if there's the chance of ice, then running at speed could increase chances of potential injuries if there are any slips or falls. I still really want to get out though and get my long run in. I love running in the snow. What mileage are you doing this weekend?
DS2........Thanks very much. It's extremely nice to hear that you are still following the thread. It makes it all the more worthwhile reading such messages when I'm posting updates. I really want there to be another visible difference when I get Mrs. Shady Ady to take the next photo after week 8. I do hope it is my year (actually I don't want to be greedy.....I'll just take April 7th as my day!)..........just another 13 successful weeks of training to get through first! Easier said than done.
Day 31 - Asics Target 26.2 Paris Marathon Training (16/01/13)
Target: Rest Day or Cross-Training
Actual: 18.4 miles on Exercise Bike in 60mins on Cross-Country setting.
It's sometimes nice to have a rest from running during lunch break once or twice a week. It means I can eat my lunch at leisure and not have to scoff it down in a couple of minutes once I return to the office. It also means I get to leave work on time so I can go home and do my cross-training!
I've been meaning to try and fit some more pilates into my schedule, but haven't been too successful so far. When it comes to my cross-training, I have always chosen cycling ahead of pilates as I feel this gives me more of a workout. The pilates I always push to other days when I'm running, but these evenings have always been full of other work-related commitments. This weekend though I will certainly get at least one pilates session in as well, if only for the stretching benefits.
So it was back to cycling. The best thing about this session, like I've said before, is the fact I get to catch up on any TV I've missed. Today's treat was 'Lost Kingdoms of South America'. I must be a little different to most people. When stuck in a gym, I find I perform much better watching a good travel, nature or history documentary than a One Direction or Taylor Swift video!
I chose a different setting today to continue mixing it up. Although easier than the stamina session that uses more resistance, I still felt like I received a good workout and was tested by keeping a speed of over 100 rotations per minute for almost the whole duration.
Watching TV on my phone while working out, also means I don't have to stare at myself in the mirror. On the few occasions that I did look up to see a sweaty mess looking straight back at me, I noticed for the first time how much my gut has shrunk in recent weeks. There's still plenty of work to do though before I have one of those beach bodies!
Continuing on with the TV theme, I managed to get this workout completed just in time to get home, make dinner and settle in for the next episode of Africa. Good TV and training all round!
Such a schoolboy error! It serves me right for having that extra 10 minutes in bed this morning! Rushing to catch my train to work, I managed to forget possibly the most important thing for today's training session: my watch.
If it was just a comfortable 5 miler or recovery run, I wouldn't have minded so much. Intervals though would be a struggle. Alongside not knowing exactly how far 800 metres would be, I would also not know my pacing and whether this would be too fast or too slow. Because of this I have postponed this session to tomorrow and moved my Friday rest day to today. By doing this, I can sandwich the 5 mile comfortable run between the more strenous interval and long run sessions.
It's embarassing how lost I can be without technology!
This is my updated plan for the rest of the week (weather permitting):
Thursday Intervals: 2 MILE COMFORTABLE then 3 x acceleration strides then 5 x 800m (or 3 mins) at 6.30-6.50 pace with 3 min jogs in between each. 1 MILE COMFORTABLE (6.5 MILES) (NOW FRIDAY)
Friday Rest (NOW THURSDAY)
Saturday 15.5 MILES PROGRESSION RUN: 5 @8.50, 5 @8.25, 5 @8.00 (1/2 MILE TO GET UP TO 8.50) (NOW SUNDAY)
Sunday 5 MILE COMFORTABLE (NOW SATURDAY)
Is this change okay with you Sam, or do you have a better way of re-arranging it?
The pre-sliced malt loaf was for portion control only!! Easy to eat too much of it.
The gel advice is spot on: just practice enough with them (and how often you need to take them) to know you can use in race.
Shady_Ady -
Photos, what a difference!!!! Your diet looks so much better already and if you can keep the motivation to cut out the rubbish and too many large portions it will mean more weight loss and if all goes well with your training a new PB. I think everyone on this forum will keep you motivated with your diet (perhaps post a photo of gut every four weeks!). Dropping the weight is going to help you big time. Keep thinking of what a new PB will feel like in Paris on that finish line and remember once you have a PB no-one can take it from you ever!! . You are in control of making this happen (at least from a nutrition view point). Keep up the great work. On the tough days of eating think of a mantra or write down why you are doing it and it may help.
I can confirm that Ruth isn't playing mind games and also that this isn't another one of Sam's peculiar dreams. Here's photographic evidence. Had to see it with my own eyes to believe it. They are bringing out a pre-chewed version later this year
Ady - surely you don't ever take your watch off? And I thought you were dedicated to cause. So disappointed - I'm taking the posters of you down off my wall now.
Ruth - I'm interested to know your thoughts on the humble hot cross bun and its cousin the fruit teacake (sliced or unsliced, I don't care either way). Are these worthy snack candidates or are they on the nutritional black list?
Malcs - I hope they aren't black listed - I love that sort of thing. If Ruth says they are to be avoided I'm not listening and switching her to 'switch off posts'!! Only joking Ruth.
Having always just eaten and drank what I fancy I've recognised the need now I'm older to pay a bit more attention to this aspect and I've really enjoyed the discussions so far. I think I've actually improved my consumption as well and, although it may be in my head, I definitely feel better for it.
Anyhow, Malcs, how are you feeling? Are you back running yet?
With everybody talking about the snow and chaos that's going to come tomorrow, I thought I'd find a little bit of solace on here!
Ruth.......Never ever did I expect to hear a woman requesting photos of my gut in public. I don't know what to say......oh, go on then, I don't want to disappoint! Expect the next one in just over three weeks time. I definitely think it has helped re-distributing my food over the course of the day, which has cut down my portion size in the evening.
I expect I'll have some wobbles along the way, but I'll dust myself off and get back on it straight away! And if I ever do feel like ice-cream and chocolate for breakfast, lunch or dinner, I'll just look at the photo from Day 1 and this should motivate me.
Malcs.......I was actually talking to Ruth off line earlier and she said that tea cakes are absolutely fine and that having about five tea cakes all in one go, dripped in lard and then fried would be a perfect breakfast before your next big race, say Spitfire 20?
Being serious though, I've always thought anything with a raisin in could never be classed as bad for you. If tea cakes are bad, then that can't mean bread-pudding and chocolate covered raisins are bad too? I often have them with jam or honey and toasted before my longest long runs for breakfast, so I'd be interested to hear too.
Taking the posters off the wall? I never realised any of those actually sold!
DS2........After losing the weight I want to, I'm hoping my metabolism will be good enough to start enjoying a few more treats now and again. Or at least the odd fish and chip supper and takeaway from time to time. Maybe I shouldn't be saying this out loud while Ruth is in ear shot! Of course, I'd only have such things if I'd worked hard enough beforehand!

Tour chaotic Tokyo by bike and survive the trip
Cycling in Tokyo, whether for the buzz of riding out on a high-end road bike or simply for getting around on a rattling mama-chari, has long been popular -- that we know. Recently, and somewhat surprisingly, the number of two-wheelers has grown due, at least in part, to an upsurge in interest after the March 11 earthquake.
Quite why that should be, or how long it will last, we can only guess, but there's no denying that cycling remains one of the easiest, most-accessible ways to explore Tokyo and get a little fitter at the same time. Which begs the question, who best to get velocipedal with?
While cycling solo is a good way to keep healthy and have fun, doing it with a bunch of laid-back friends is even better, according to Half-Fast cycling club member Mike Sims-Williams.
The 42-year-old Briton has been a bicycle enthusiast since 2005, when a little incident on his way to work left him temporarily without his prized BMW motorbike. "I could have taken a combination of buses and trains," Sims-Williams says, "but that wasn't appealing at all.
"So I dusted-off my mountain bike and tried cycling the 20 kilometers from my home in Kawasaki to my office in Chiyoda-ku. It felt so good that to this day I still commute to work by bicycle almost every day and even maintain a modest fleet of bikes."
Organized chaos
Sims-Williams' love for biking got even stronger when, a few months later, he was introduced to Half-Fast, an international club that American journalist and film critic Don Morton had founded in 2003.
Six years and 70,000 kilometers later, he is the club's Deputy Benevolent Dictator and Webmaestro. "When Don is travelling abroad I take over the (dis)organization of club rides and monthly meetings," he says.
- More on CNNGo: Two wheels better than four in Tokyo
Speaking of organization, Half-Fast is a very flexible club that tries to be as open to everybody as possible, regardless of cycling experience or ability. The club operates primarily in English, but there are many Japanese members as well.
"There are no membership fees or participation fees," Sims-Williams points out. "We have around 500 members registered on the mailing list, and each ride attracts between five and 50 people.
"We're non-competitive and non-threatening. The most important thing we do is offer shorter rides for beginners, allowing them to build up some confidence in riding further than the nearest convenience store or train station.
Getting into it
"Our beginners are so happy when they finish their first ever 30-kilometer loop ride, and realize that cycling is a fun and relaxing sport they can easily keep up for the rest of their lives."
Most of Half-Fast's standard rides begin in front of the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills, at around 11 a.m. on weekend mornings. Apart from the required helmet, members wear whatever they want, even though many of them sport the club jersey that Sims-Williams designed.
"We have two standard beginners' routes, one to the beachfront at Odaiba and one to a park near Haneda Airport. Apart from a few bridges these routes are completely flat, and new riders often see more of Tokyo than they have ever seen before -- even if they've lived here their whole lives."
- More on CNNGo: Biking from Tokyo to Osaka
Once riders have developed the confidence to ride 30 kilometers in a group, they usually want to stretch their legs even more. At the next level the club offers a 55-kilometer ride taking in a section of the Tama River Cycle Path -- the Tamagawa Loop.
"A bonus of this ride," Sims-Williams adds, "is that it finishes in the same way as the Haneda ride so folks find themselves in familiar territory."
Stepping up again, the Half-Fasters head north and east for a 70-kilometer-plus ride taking in the Arakawa cycle path, Kasai Seaside Park, and finishing off with the second half of the Odaiba ride.
"We also arrange some very special rides -- a 45-kilometer trip roughly following the JR Yamanote Line on New Year's Day, in celebration of the almost complete absence of traffic in central Tokyo, and a night ride to Odaiba to watch the Tokyo Bay Fireworks display each August."
Taking it further
Once in a while, the club goes away for a weekend, in which case the leader for the day has to arrange lodgings and check the train schedules –- or the ferry schedule, like when they go to Oshima, a small island 100 kilometers south of Tokyo.
"Of course, in this case you need to remove the front wheel and carry your bike in a special cycle bag," Sims-Williams says.
"With the recent booming popularity of cycling, train station staff have become much more strict. While it's still possible to make an 'emergency bike bag' from garbage bags and sticky tape, you need to make sure the bike is completely covered otherwise they might not let you on the train at all."
Any kind of bicycle is admitted (even a mama-chari) although the Half-Fasters suggest people buy a road bike -- possibly with a carbon-fiber frame -- not just for its superior performance but because it's much lighter to carry around on trains. Aluminum bikes are also very good and lightweight.
- More on CNNGo: Best Tokyo bike shops
You can buy a serviceable road bike for about ¥60,000, but the club recommends you don't spend any less than ¥100,000 on an entry-level bicycle.
"The frames are about the same but the gears and the wheels make a very real difference, both to your riding experience and the longevity of your steed," Sims-Williams says.
"Also include in your shopping budget the cost of accessories including helmet, gloves, water bottle and more. We're happy to help with shopping, and we even have a "Bike Shop Hop" ride that visits several of our favorite retailers so newcomers will know where to go."


text: Pre-Day in Dublin This Emerald Isle Adventure start date was Saturday 05/23/2009. We (mother & daughter) chose to add one pre-night to acclimate ourselves to the time change and have some fun prior to the adventurers gathering reception. We booked our pre-night with Disney at the Westin. I booked the airfare myself. Thursday 05/21/2009: Our flight from Tampa left on time and we arrived in JFK for a long 4 hour layover until our flight to Dublin. Our departure gate at JFK was next to a Delta Crown Lounge so we took advantage of the day membership and relaxed for the next 4 hours. It is expensive now since Delta has raised the day prices but we felt it was worth the comfort. The Delta terminal (3) at JFK is lousy for comfort. It turned out to be our last chance for relaxation until we hit Dublin so I'm glad we splurged. Our flight to Dublin left on time. The seats on Delta's 757's (the Song airline planes) are not comfortable, like sitting on a board with no cushion. Yes I know they are newer equipment and have personal screens to fiddle with but I still dislike them for comfort. Anyway that was the least of the inconveniences. One of the passengers had some sort of seizure on the plane while we were over the Atlantic. The lights in the cabin had just dimmed when they flipped back on and an attendant asked for any medical people on board to report to seat/row etc. Luckily 2 doctors and an EMT were on board and gave assistance to the poor man. They hooked him up to oxygen and an IV while they monitored his blood pressure. Then they decided he should be lying down. So the attendants prepared the galley for him with everyone's blankets and pillows. With the galley turned into an emergency room, it was impossible to receive water or any beverage and meals. No one was complaining about this since we would have wanted the same care if one of us or a loved one had suffered a health problem. An ambulance met us at Dublin. I sincerely hope the passenger was helped and went on to have a holiday in Ireland. Thirsty and tired we arrived in Dublin on time at 7:45 am on Friday 05/22/09. *Tour Tip: Dublin airport - After passport check-in and luggage pick-up (you have to get your own here) proceed through a myriad of corridors to the Exit. There you will be met by an ABD rep, not your guide but a company that is sub-contracted by Disney for pick-up at the airport. He will be holding an ABD logo sign with your name on it. It was about a 30-40 minute ride to the Westin in Dublin from the airport. We proceeded to check-in. I presented my Starwood Preferred Guest card and received an upgrade to a Deluxe room versus the usual Disney Classic room. All this means was that it was a bigger room, which was very nice and yes we were able to go directly to our room, unpack, freshen up and hit the streets of Dublin. *Tour TipThere is an ATM right outside the Westin. At the front door turn left and it is literally 5 steps away. The Westin is next door to a bank. I had taken a few Euros with me and did purchase some water at the airport since we hadn't had anything to drink for over 4 hours. Other than that we really didn't need Euros before Dublin City Centre. This was a totally free day for us so we decided to explore the Jameson Distillery. We asked the delightful Doorman (Charlie ?) at the Westin for directions and we were on our way. By this time it was 1 pm and we hadn't had anything to eat since JFK so we crossed the street and hit the Temple Bar district. We chose Oliver St. John Gogarty's based on Poppins2000 recommendation. It provided good food, lively atmosphere and friendly service. Perfect! Being lunch time on a Friday it was crowded but we found a table and ordered. I had a bacon sandwich with a pint of the black stuff, my first of many pints this trip. And Mindy had her first dish of Irish Stew this trip. After lunch we walked to the Jameson Whiskey Distillery, which was a good 45 minute to an hour walk since we took detours of our own device to see things. What a fun experience. They offer (sell) tours throughout the day. You are offered a small beverage at the end of the tour. Jameson whiskey served in various ways, neat or with water or with ginger ale or coke. By that time we had walked off our Guinness so we indulged in the whiskey. Good fun because everyone there is ready for a good time. We took a leisurely walk back to the hotel for a shower and about an hours rest. That evening we walked over to Oliver St. John Gogarty's to sign up for the Traditional Irish Music Pub Crawl that evening. They put us on the waiting list and we somehow managed to do the Crawl. Great entertainment. We visited three different pubs where two musicians who sang various traditional Irish songs entertained us. They were great musicians and also very funny in their presentations. It was a wonderful way to end the long day. Unfortunatley my pictures didn't turn out from this event. It was very dark in those pub rooms. Our plan for tomorrow was to visit Knowth and Newgrange outside of Dublin. The concierge at the Westin helped us decide which of two tour groups to use, booked our reservations for us and arranged for the van to pick us up right at the front door of the Westin. We hit the heavenly beds at the Westin and didn't stir until 7:30 the next morning. Part Two

Owners open restaurant after long battle with city
CHICO, Calif. - Butte CountyA new restaurant is set to open its doors Friday night in downtown Chico after months of fighting the city for an alcohol license.
Owners of the B Street Oyster Company tackled a lot of red tape just to get clearance to stay open later.
The argument was that the city didn't want another restaurant turning into a bar at night but last summer the city approved the license and owner is ready to unveil his new project.
"It's a place of a city experience like something you would get at the Ferry Building [in San Francisco] or sit down and enjoy a plate of mussels or some oysters," said co-owner, Will Brady.
Brady is also the owner of the Banshee in downtown Chico.
He said the bar is being set up - and an outdoor patio was built in the back with some old nostalgia of Chico history, the Town Lounge sign.
"I wanted the sign because it's a piece of Chico culture I think," said Brady.
The Town Lounge shut its doors in May of 2013. And Brady said it makes a great light for the patio.
In order to open his new restaurant, Brady had to prove to the City of Chico that his restaurant was not going to be another late night bar that would add to the drinking problems in downtown.
"I think hopefully with this place they will see entered this with good faith," said Brady.
"The B Street Oyster Company was a restaurant that was looking to be more of a bar - and requesting variances on our restaurant licensing," said Chico City Councilman, Randall Stone.
Stone said in order for the business to maintain a restaurant alcohol license in the City of Chico their food must generate more than 50 percent of their revenue rather than alcohol.
"That's a restaurant. That's what the definition of a restaurant is," said Stone.
Brady said he's agreed with the city to have last call at midnight. He believes his new restaurant is a high end establishment and doesn't add to the drinking problem in downtown.

This year we asked our community of Small Business Experts,
What is your top 2016 HR priority?
First off, a big thank you to everyone who participated! 31 small businesses responded with their goals for 2016.
We know this sample size is nothing to write an academic paper on, but we were able to see a clear winner.
The HR poll included 6 options: Recruitment, Workplace Safety, Employee Relations, Compensation & Benefits, Compliance and Training & Development.
Three participants chose to respond with 'Other' naming their HR goals as:
- Talent
- Obtaining SHRM-CP
- Employee Engagement
The top choice was Recruitment at 32%, followed by Employee Relations and Training & Development, which received 16% each.
32.3% - Recruitment
16.1% - Employee Relations
16.1% - Training & Development
9.7% - Workplace Safety
9.7% - Compensation & Benefits
9.7% - Other
6.5% - Compliance
We were happy to see that many of the participating small businesses are focusing on recruitment this year. Keep on growing!
Recruitment is a top priority at Wagepoint too. Look for our post later this month on the state of recruitment as well as trends and tips for recruiting in 2016.

possible oil leak/ electro-power steering rack leaking
Well, went to check out under my car today for fun and do my tires pressures and discovered some stuff. I work as a technician for DCH Toyota so i have availability to a lift every day :) So i took a look under the hood to check my dipstick since i switched over to mobil1 full synthetic to check to see if i was burning any oil and it was perfect. Then in the corner of my eye i see that my Electro-Power steering fluid is quite low for a car with only 19,000 miles on it. I Lifted it in the air and took out my flashlight and quickly noticed that the rubber boots on the outer tie rod ends on the power steering rack were a tad wet compared to the rest. (Usually when i see a power steering rack leaking on the vehicles i service i notice the rubber boots are a little wet due to the inner seals of the rack leaking) I will post pictures up as soon as i can and i will be going to jeep this week. Also stated in the title, i noticed a little seepage from the motor near the oil pan. Going to have them check that out as well. Good thing i have the availability to a lift because if this was a normal consumer who doesn't see any drips on the driveway, guaranteed that the techs at jeep wouldn't say a thing about a leak under warranty.
Re: possible oil leak/ electro-power steering rack leaking
There was a tsb out on the power steering rack 19-006-10,this was for leaking and a moan at pArking lot speeds.there is also a tsb for the prop shaft causing a shudder or vibration when comming to a stop 19-004-11.I had both of mine replaced thankfully I found a website that lists all tsbs for all grand Cherokees.the service department said they toped off my fluid after investigating my boot was wet on the passenger side so they replaced both,at the time they were trying to fix a moan in my front end.good luck

Stripped screws on heel hoop, Rome warranty thinks I'm retarded
1 Attachment(s)
So I tried adjusting the size of my brand new 390boss binding, and the screw on the heel hoop became semi-stripped, on both sides. I was very careful in trying to unscrew it, but it wouldn't budge.
I then emailed Rome customer service because I didn't want to damage them further until I had a solution, and the response I got?
'Try to use a screwdriver'
Being reasonable, I told them I did use a screw driver, stripping the screw in the process, I even showed them a picture as seen here. They replied AGAIN by saying use a 'number 3 screwdriver' or drill the screw out.
Do they think I tried using my pinky finger to unscrew the screw?
Anyway I don't want to take a drill to my new bindings, especially on the part that's holding my heel cup together. Tried using WD40, wouldn't budge. What other options do I have?
PS This is only for one binding, I managed to unscrew the other one fine. However, I had a similar screw-stripping experience with another set of 390Boss before.
It's no big deal to drill a screw out... Unless you're not good with tools in the first place...ummm.. Yeah, never mind... You're screwed.
Are you SURE you used a #3 phillips and not a #2? If you are that afraid of drilling, take it to a shop that can clamp it in a drillpress.
Looks like you're going to need a #4 screwdriver now. Next time use the right tool for the job the first time. You can also try an impact driver (rent from hardware/autoparts store), or an extractor.
I am waiting on new screws from Flow after having the same thing happen. I am chalking it up to the use of bottom end screws as even with the right driver the metal used is way too soft.
You could try cutting a flat head slot in it with a dremel or suchp. Don't go to deep in the head of the screw so you torque the head off but deep enough to get a good bite and make sure the screwdriver head fits snug In the slot. Use a nice fat flat head as close to the width of the screw head as possible. Or go to Sears and get a set of screw extractors, which sometimes don't work all that great but as far as that screw is concerned you've got nothing to lose. Drilling it out is a decent option. I've done it plenty of times on some odd shit. Just make sure your drill bit is the right size so you don't Fuck up the threads in the binding. I would pick a bit that fits in the rounded out area in the screw head and work up in size if need be. Remember as far as this type of thing is concerned (metals that is), you can remove material but you can't put it back as (far as the thread are concerned). A machine shop is also an option.

A #3 philips screwdriver would not have stripped it like that. The pic shows you clearly used something else. Arguing is pointless. Drill it out and put in a new screw. Problem solved.
I will however try an extractor first and then an impact driver. Thanks for those advice.
Did you use a good quality screwdriver? We've found cheap screwdrivers aren't perfect so if there's a slight issue with the screw it'll cause damage.
Only suggestion I can think of is to get a screwdriver that has a spanner flange on it, push as hard as you can to keep it nicely located in the screw and get a mate to turn the screwdriver with a spanner.
If you don't know what I mean about the screwdriver that probably won't make much sense!
We've undone worse looking screws like that with this method.
Alex B
not sure what Rome cs is suppose to do ? send you new screwdriver better yet bindings? have one of your moms blue collar boyfriends drill it out . The screw not you mom..

Thing's robotic twin
If you've been hanging around here much, then you know how we feel about robots, particularly disembodied parts made to resemble those of humans. I couldn't sleep with this thing in the house. All creepy crawly, just looking for a "fleshy" to snuff out.
Yeah, What on Earth is selling these things as novelty gifts for $16.95, but this is clearly a ploy to get us to bring them into our homes. These plastic hands respond to sound by playing the right hand part to several popular piano tunes. But is that all they can do? Will they lull us into a false sense of security with their Minute Waltz and human-like movements? What will happen once "The Signal" is sent out from Master Control? We'll let someone else figure that out. Vigilance, friends!

Fishing Cat 5 tomorrow
Hi all,
Any good tips or last minute advice for fishing cables. I have a phone line and a CAT 5 cable that need to be fished up 3 feet, through a notch on the top plate then about 20 feet horizontally through the ceiling. I have 100' of fish tape. Notch is large enough to fit the cables.... if I can get through it with the fish tape. Any tips?
Get two helpers. Your really will not need the fish tape if you are able to pull down from above. Just when you make the wire bundle, go about 4" from the end of the first wire, then tape the 2nd, then same for the 3rd, so that it will be easier to pull.
Can't go down though.... Ceiling is enclosed in sheetrock. I need to get the line from a current outlet box (for phone line, no power) on the east wall..... UP 3 feet.... through a notched 2x4 then west through the ceiling about 20' to the laundry room. Laundry room ceiling is open, beams are running in same direction as I need to fish, so it's through a cavity.
I just hate fishing wire! I have so much respect for the electrical pros that have to fish regularly. :surrender:
I usually put a light in the area (hole) that I am fishing towards
That way I can see the hole I need to hit
I put 10' PVC between my basement & 2nd floor to eliminate fishing for CAT5e/cable & phone - needed several runs
you can also use a shopvac to pull them up through your conduit also. ive seen this done on multiple commercial job sites.
If it's not too late, I would do cat6 instead, if you're going to run wire.
If it's dedicated for phone and you have zero plans to add network drops then you'll be ok, but since cat6 is not that much more expensive I'd personally go with that for futureproofing.
Actually for home use, Cat-6 is over kill. Cat-5e can handle up to 10gbs networking.
What you may have to do then, is cut a couple of holes in the ceiling to help pull, then patch once done. If you have the Popcorn on the ceilings, you can get texture in a can to replace when done patching. Also, since you are pulling Cat-5 & telco (cat 5 preferably), pull total of two Cat for networking.
I am considering hardwiring a network in my house. I asked at the big box about cat5 and they told me they had two types. One was much more expensive due to the material used in the conductors. Is this what they mean by cat6? Whats your opinion of wireless vs hardwired? My router is not a wireless router but I can get a good wireless router for around $50.00.
I know you are very good on this stuff. Appreciate any suggestions.....John
Ps.....I ran some cat5 at work a couple times. It was blue in color. I did not order it. Does color signify anything?
Here you go... any color you want.
if you are setting up a network i in your house i personally would set up a media server, wireless router and a minimum of a 10Gb switch 16 port switch. it's not hard to run wires (put them in conduit or pvc) and you can then have a wired connection in every room if you want. if you buy a 100gb switch you can move files internally or watch movies with zero delay / lag other than what is inherent to the system doing the processing. a good router can be gotten anywhere between $50 and $100 depending on brand / features and switch pricing is similar, if not less. newwegg and tigerdirect are awesome for buying various parts like that. if you have one near by Fry's or MicroCenter are also good bets - much better than Best Buy imo.
Just saying you don't know what the future will bring.

Jonathan is one of those characters who typify farmers' markets. He is a bit of an off-the-wall dude who discovered a new lifestyle and followed his kitchen passion. Still supporting his lifestyle by plastering during the week, he's cooking up other stories to take to the market. You can contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com
Here's his Beetroot Curd recipe. Off the wall, yes, but a novel approach to beetroot!
Makes five 225g jars
• 450g beetroot
• Finely grated zest of two lemons and 100ml juice
• 125g butter
• 450g granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
1. Bake beetroot and peel, weigh 450g. Mash, blitz or puree.
2. Stir in lemon and sugar. Let sit overnight.
3. Next day, put in a double boiler. Heat, add eggs and butter. Bring to about 65C. Be careful not to scramble the eggs.
4. When done, pour into hot sterilised jars and seal. Serve on crackers with some cream cheese, feta or sour cream.
