Day 26 - On the road again

Wednesday night I couldn’t sleep. I tossed and turned all night waking up every 30-45 minutes. I hate insomnia! I’ve suffered with bouts of insomnia since high school. I used to just get up and roam the neighborhood, but the cops didn’t always like me being out there that late at night (and under age.) The point to this is that when the alarm went off in the morning I could not get out of bed. I knew that I had to run but it just wasn’t happening. So I moved my training schedule to have Thursday be an EZ day and Friday I would run.
I also didn’t do so well on the food front. It started out all fine and good but then came lunch. My VP took my department out for lunch to the greasiest pizza joint in town, Big Bill’s. I love this place! The only problem is that there is no such thing as a healthy meal on the menu. Even the salads drip with greasy goodness.

Breakfast
Oatmeal
Coffee with creamer

Lunch
Pepperoni calzone
Garlic knots
Diet coke

Dinner
Chicken nuggets
Water

Activity

I can’t give an accurate account of my activity because I left my pedometer at home. My guess would be about 2-3 miles of walking.

The next few days are going to be difficult. We are headed to Salt Lake City for the Easter weekend to visit my family. Dieting and exercising while traveling is something I’ve never done well. I have packed my running shoes and iPod and I plan to hit the pavement, I just hope I can follow through.
