1/25/2011 Are you ready?

"ARE YOU READY????"  The first words that Jonathan Davis growled out of my iPod this morning.  Yes, the answer is yes, I 'm ready to take on another day and another workout!  So Korn's song Blind started me on my way today, which you can hear on the post below.  It got me pumped to try and duplicate yesterdays run.  I wish I could say I did it but I was a little short on energy this morning and was 1 tenth of mile short of reaching my goal.  2.75 miles in 24 minutes, not to bad but I really want to see an 8 minute mile within 2 weeks from now.   I know that I can do it I just need to keep focused and stick to my plan.  As for the rest of the workout it consisted of 20 minute on the elliptical machine right at 1.25 miles.  I followed my daily eating routine of 64 ozs. of water, 14 ozs. of coffee, 1 apple, 1 orange, 1 Carnation instant breakfast and then the train went off the track!  I had to leave the office and was really hungry so I stopped at a local restaurant and  had Steak Picado with salsa verde no beans and a little rice.  I have no idea if it is good for you but damn it tasted good!  For dinner I got things back on track with grilled chicken, black beans, and lettuce with hot sauce.   On to the next day, maybe tomorrow will be the day I hit 8 minute miles!
