Fri, Jan 20 - training

today is a c25k training today
can't wait til tomorrow
because i didn't train yesterday
and i WILL NOT go 2 days without training
should have planned better
but i didn't
tonight we have plans
so options for today are/were:
1) get up early - told myself that's really not an option
2) run after we get home later tonight - unlikely to follow through
3) train during lunch - not enough time to clean-up and stop sweating
are you seeing my pattern of excuses
good thing i had decided
that
i
will train
TODAY
so
i've decided
i'm running right after work
and attending our evening plans
with freshly showered hair
not ideal
but better than
not training

at lunch i read this in an article

Here’s another tip:  I want to recommend that you try to exercise first thing in the morning before you eat breakfast. After fasting overnight your body’s blood sugar levels will be naturally lowered. Therefore, when you start exercising, your body will be forced to dip into your stubborn fat cells to fuel your movement instead of burning the blood sugar from foods you’ve recently eaten.
By doing this one simple trick, you can burn fat up to 300 percent faster than you could if you performed the same exercise later in the day, after you’ve already eaten. This is an important secret for those looking to exercise less and get better results.
Note: If you feel nauseated or dizzy while exercising on an empty stomach, try having a non-carbohydrate food (like a few almonds or some low-fat cottage cheese) right after you wake up. This will settle your hunger without dramatically increasing your blood sugar levels. And always start your day with a tall glass of water.

wish i had read that yesterday
because i CAN train in the morning
i have just previously chosen not to
