| Target | Today | |
|---|---|---|
| Weight (kg) | 75 | 76.5 |

| Heart Rate Recovery (BPM) | 100 | 130 (after peak) |
37 minute run, 6 laps. Lots of sweat. Not sure how close I was, but I looked at a community map and estimate that 1 lap is 4 * 80 m + 2 * 40 m = 400 m. Maybe my previous estimates were pretty close. Anyhow, this means today's run was at 2.4 km. Not bad.
Areas of minor soreness: left knee on the left side, left calf (already sore from yesterday), some tightness in right ankle. Even thus, it's not bad, everything else feels great.
Still have too much of a double chin and some flab around the abdominal area. Running will maintain metabolism. But, I need additional pieces to the program to address this area. AND, gotta keep the fat in-take down .. it's hard since I love good food and occasionally junk food. I'm a sucker for chocolate, hamburgers, and milk. All have been marked as evil by dieters.
Just calculated BMI for 175 cm and 76.5 kg ... I'm right on the border of normal and overweight. Of course, this doesn't measure % fat which requires a complicated measurement using calipers or blood samples. Needless to say, if I eat right, get vitamins, and keep running, I should improve to better than average results.
Ultimately, I'd love to get to around 72 kg, bulked with protein, and toned well on the muscles with a goal of having higher energy to do more things with work, family, community, etc.
