Almost 1 hour on the rollers last night whilst my better half finished off a visiting errand and returned with a healthy Chinese just before the hour was up. Hopefully the calories expended were equal to the mushroom foo yung, followed by bakewell tart and custard.
Calorie intake was a bit disrupted yesterday due to a planned hour at the dentist at 10 o'clock to sort out a troublesome tooth. This meant that eating was curtailed until feeling was restored to my mouth, so I only had an apple, banana and an eccles cake until the aforementioned takeaway materialised. I like to think that this does not constitute a 'meal' and explains why I was very hungry come 5 o'clock.
I'm a regular listener to IMTalk, a New Zealand based podcast that covers anything to do with ironman racing, and this week had an interview with an American professor explaining why keeping your 'nutritional balance' throughout the day was very important. He seemed to make a lot of sense, and if he's right, my calorie intake yesterday was as bad as it gets. Hopefully odd days like that won't make too much difference.
I got out for 10 miles this morning, taking in the sights of Kelsey Moor and then returning by the public footpath that goes into South Kelsey. This was a mistake, due to the excessive rain we have had, and the uneven ground did not do my knee any good resulting in a bit of knee pain nearer home.
Note to self: keep on tarmac.
To make it worse, my Garmin appears to have lost this morning's run. Luckily I glanced at the end result (9.94miles, 1hr 29mins) so I was able to add a manual entry, but I'm not impressed with losing the data.
