Had a thought this morning...

I think it's pretty darned cool that I can say yes to an invitation to run a 10k with a friend on 2 days notice. I mean... 10k is not a long race in a distance runners mind, but for me... well... I've only done it once before, but I know that I can do it without too much effort and come out fine on the other end... and I think that's pretty neat.

I'm back at work this morning (hooray.) and trying to get caught up on my 200+ emails. I need to meet with a few people and get some updates on things that happened in my projects over the last week.

My plan for the next few weeks will be solidified over the next couple of days... I imagine I will start with a 10 day colon cleanse, continue it while I do a 3 day kidney cleanse, and then do a 3 day liver flush routine after which I will continue on my merry way all clean and detoxified and such... and then... it's lean out time baby... cardio cardio cardio and low-weight/high-rep weights. I don't expect to exercise much during the cleanse... it's just very hard to maintain energy levels when your diet consists of a lot of fruit and veggies and vegitable sources of protein (read beans) and not a whole hell of a lot else.

Once I'm done with my cleanse my diet will go back to about 150-200g protein per day, 100-140g of carbs and 30-50g fat. I'll be takin' my suplements (omega-3, magnesium, b-complex, multi-vit) drinkin my water (100+ oz per day) and livin the life of the athlete.

I'm sad about the triathlon... I think I need to find another to do before the summer is over... and maybe next year we'll all go to Alaska for the Gold-Nugget All Women's or the Valdez - Gold-Rush-Days Tris. What will be will be.

Its good to be back!

Cheers!
