My weekly weigh-in this morning revealed the true horror of the last week's illness and reduced running - weight, muscle mass, body fat etc etc are all back to nearly identical levels of three weeks ago, showing just how fickle this fitness business is. I'd expected it to go backwards, but not quite
that much. I still ran just over half of my scheduled kilometres, but I guess it was the lack of walking and the undisciplined shovelling of food (you
are supposed to feed ear infections aren't you?) that did the damage...
Still, I'm 95% over it now and will get back into the running togs tonight and see how I go. Trouble is, Easter's coming up, Mrs MLCM is away and I have a good friend coming to stay for a couple of days over the weekend which will entail food and beverage consumption at an unhealthy rate.
But what's a MLCM to do?
Maybe I should hire a personal trainer to get a bit more discipline back in my running life?
Meh.
