A New Goal!

Hello,
It's been awhile since I've jumped into the Mojo blogesphere! My focus has been on training runs leading up to last weeks Flying Pig half marathon. I did better than I thought I would, 2h:22m. The hilliest of the seven HM's I've run so I was content with that, given my weight is up 20 lbs from when I ran my best half back in 2005 (2:08). So now the focus turns to the MS 150 (http://bikerboy.notlong.com).

This will be my fourth year participating in this event, with my buddies Rick and Dan. Last year I upped it a notch and rode 200 miles in two days! This year, I'm focusing on riding faster and completing 150 miles. I'm upgrading my bike with clip-in pedals, which can add 20-30% more power for the same effort. With the HM just wrapping up, time is short to train however - the event is June 9th!

Foodwise, I'm dedicating myself to a long On-Program streak. For the following 60 days, I want to do the following
1) eat between 20 and 26 WW points a day
2) eat all my activity points from biking/running
3) drink 60 oz of water day
4) DO NOT eat real food* after 9 p.m.
* is OK!

Progress will be tracked in the sidebar. Where is the sidebar you ask? Its over there -->
Wish me luck!
