Didn’t weigh myself this AM and I guess I didn’t completely solve my IBS stuff because my abdomen has blown up and I feel lethargic.

Last week was a high calorie week for me, which I’m not happy about but it’s in the rear view mirror now. I have a big 5k I’m training for so this week’s leg work out will be the last one I do until after May 26. My paces above are deceptively slow as it takes me 2.5 - 3 miles to loosen up enough to feel good running. For example, my splits on today’s 7 mile run were: 8:55, 8:06, 8:05, 8:02, 7:47, 7:37, 7:10. I’m pretty sure I could have hit 3 more sub 7:00 miles if my workout were longer. I may try a 5k this weekend to work on pacing as I have no idea what I’m going to be able to do. During training, my fastest 5k was 22:56 but that came at the tail end of an 8 mile run. I’m thinking a sub-20:00 should be possible with my current conditioning.
Lifting is going well, I’m able to keep adding weight to the bar even as I lose weight. This AM I was 195.5. I hope to be at 190 by EOM and 180 by the end of the summer which should get me close to an 18:00 5K.
