Tuesday

Saturday: 154.2, Sunday: 154.8, Monday: 154.4.  And today? 156.0. I know why; I'm swollen and achy from the Bolder Boulder yesterday. I was hoping the number would be lower, but it is what it is. Here's yesterday:

• tea with cream
  
• coconut-milk smoothie with protein powder, vanilla, raspberries, and cocoa powder
  
• olive oil potato chips (1 bag)
  
• 2 Michelob Ultra beers
  
• 1/2 pound smoked turkey
  
• cashews (total for the day about 3/4 cup)
  
• cheese - a couple pieces, I think
  
• a glass of white wine
  
• a burger patty with pickles
  
• two bratwurst
  
• sauerkraut
  
• cole slaw
  
• vanilla ice cream with berries (strawberries and blueberries)
  

That was it. A little over the top, especially as regards alcohol, but not too bad. So I expect to see the 154s again here shortly.

The race was fun, as usual. We maintained pretty much a 16-minute mile steadily over the whole course, which wasn't bad since we hadn't trained at all. My vibrams continued to bug my heels a little; I think I have a mild blister on one of them - on the bottom of the heel surface. Not sure why this pair does that, when my other ones mostly didn't (unless dirty).

Fuel points were through the roof - nearly 5000 for the day, I think. And that included a nap. The race as a session completed my daily point goal all by itself.

As for today - strawberries, cream, and bacon for breakfast, olives for lunch, no idea what for dinner. But I want to get right back into the groove here, so it will probably be a big-ass salad of some sort.
