put the fork down and stop eating. Laugh just kidding.

if you cut back on your portions and continue your cardio, you should be okay. do you jump rope as well?

I can make that a goal as well. This year I hopped in a couple of 5Ks (200m more than 3miles) without training much. These were the 1st competitive races I'd run since 99, and back then, I'd hand the baton off after 100m. Anyway, I finished in the mid 23s once and the high 23s another time, but both times faded pretty badly over the last 1800m. I guess that puts me around the high 22s for 3 miles. Distance running is no joke, but I got a treadmill in Sept., and am pretty consistent about training 3x a week. When the spring rolls around, I'll hop in some more 5ks and see if I can break 20.

It might be worthwhile for us to keep a spreadsheet of our progress then we can acknowledge our progress once or twice per month in this forum.

Good luck fellas....

PS: don't loose too much of that love pillow(stomach) Laugh

Make sure you're smart about it in terms of what you eat, training and the choice of trek. Oh and if you're losing your arch, you gotta get some serious support.

I'm coming off a 21 day live and raw challenge, 32 lighter so this can help in conjunction with or directly after.
