Week 7 day 2

I completed Week 7, Day 2 of C25K tonight. I made the switch from distance to time to add a bit of challenge to the workout. Instead of running for 4k, I ran for 25 minutes (or about 4.5k). The extra distance was a bit of a challenge, but surprisingly was quite doable. I adjusted my running route a bit to give me a bit more "room" for running and seemed to do quite well.

At the request of my wife, I went to Mucho Burrito after the run and picked up some burritos for dinner. My wife had a "smothered" burrito with pork and assorted veggies. I opted for a small vegan "fajita" burrito - lotsa veggies, black beans, and hot salsa. The hot salsa was truly hot - not sure if I'd try it again. We'll see if it causes indigestion in the morning.

Personal fitness really is about balance in your life. If I can get some takeout burritos and enjoy them with some delicious red wine (classy I know), while still being fit and in shape, then why not? Enjoying the ride is 99% of the fun - I'll worry about getting off the ride (the other 1%) some time many years down the road.
