One quarter of the year is now in the books. Seems like I've been "dieting" for quite a while now. All things considered, I've had success so far in 2013, but not to the extent that I would have liked. Additionally, I indulged more than I should have on Easter. Thankfully, it was my first real lapse of the year. Unfortunately, it was yesterday.
Starting off with Weight Management, I had a bounce back week in regards to exercise burning 3549 calories. I ate back ~2175 of those (I wrote off Easter dinner as 2000 calories ... that was hopefully in the ballpark) to finish 1374 below target. If you add that to my targeted ½ pound loss, and I mathematically should have lost 0.9 pounds. Here are my actual results:
| Avg | Min | Max | Last | Avg H20 | Avg Fat | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 03/18-03/25 | 173.1 | 171.4 | 174.6 | 173.6 | 98.3 | 38.3 |
| 03/25-04/01 | 173.0 | 172.2 | 174.4 | 174.4 | 98.5 | 38.0 |
| -0.1 | +0.8 | -0.2 | +0.8 | +0.2 | -0.3 |
After last week's results, I was happy to see any sort of loss this week and especially glad to see that my fat pounds were also down. It was a bit disturbing that my low and last weigh in of the week were up over last's. We'll see how my over-indulgence at Easter affects next week's numbers.
As for my Lose It challenge regarding minutes spent walking, jogging, and running in March (goal of 2000 minutes), I completed the challenge with 2062 minutes and beat the challenge. The challenge apparently wasn't scored on a pass/fail basis (which seemed lame to me), but I'm pleased that I met the spirit of the challenge.
Moving onto running, I returned to normal: running two five milers during the week and a ten milers on the weekend. Ok, the ten milers was more than my usual eight, but I wanted to make sure I was ready to do the ten for next week's race. Here's my mileage for the week:
| M | T | W | R | F | S | S |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5.61 | 5.32 | 10.41 | ||||
| Total Mileage: 21.34 | ||||||
My run on Thursday was different than usual (as I posted about on Thursday), as I ran a "magic" mile. I'll probably attempt another "magic" mile two weeks after the Sac Town Ten Milers.
Here's how I did towards my goal of 16 miles:

And here's a look at my progress towards my goal of 800 miles ran this year:

I've completed 247.66 miles so far this year and am on track to complete 1004 miles in 2013. This week's running may be a bit light as I rest up for the Sac Town 10 Miler on Sunday. I'd like to still get a couple runs in, but I have tennis on Thursday, and I'm starting to get the feeling that my legs could use a bit of a rest.
