Survived the sugar temptation

Toy owl
Owls look wise because that’s what we’ve been led to believe.

 

Self-control was alive and well yesterday. Mostly because i was too busy talking and catching up to worry about food. Good thing too. Much of the Christmas spread was sugar-laden.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since. This website is about our physical health.

i didn’t want to stop running yesterday, but i knew there was no need to push it. It’s the off-season, winter, time to just be.

Is compromise better than no deal?

Depends what your goal is. It also depends on your brand. Depends on the situation. This post is about exercising while traveling Internationally to cold climates.

An hour-long five-miler, 46 degrees, 7am, windchill at places. Will take 12-minute miles over no run. Will take five miles (normally nothing less than eight) over none.
