Also, I got an e-mail from the race director about likely weather conditions, which I thought was awfully nice. 30s-40s with showers; could be worse.
I hammered down the trail, passing rocks and trees like they were standing still.

Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
I think weight loss is a simple calculation calories in minus calories out. If that calculation is positive, then weight will be gained. If negative, weight will be lost.
Lou, exactly.
I agree with Dark Horse (uh oh). It is all about eating fewer calories than you burn.

Personally I can't think of much worse conditions for a marathon
Be safe. Be kind.
Trails are hard!
Don't know what I'm doing today. Prudence would call for another day at the gym, maybe elliptical.
Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.

I've also found that the best way to avoid unhealthy foods is to NOT BUY THEM. This sounds so obvious, but a lot of folks probably miss this very easy strategy. They buy chips and ice cream, and then try not to eat them.

The Irish Red is fermenting nicely, thanks. Ales ferment faster than lagers. Irish Red is an ale. Ales take about a week to ferment, and another week to "finish". Then I force carbonate in a few days. So 2.5 weeks from grain to glass. This can go just a bit faster for low gravity beers -- e.g., bitters, milds, etc. Lagers take about a month or six weeks, due to fermenting at a lower temperatures and "lagering" which essentially means letting the flavors clean up in very cold temperature.
I impulsively bought the Prevention magazine. There is an article in there about how to increase your workout to burn 60% more calories. One of the things in this workout is turning the belt down to 2.5 or 3.0 mph, incline at 15% and do lunges for 2 minutes!!!
