Christmas Day, W2W2

I find all this fascinating. I did the exact same thing I did the day before yesterday, but look at the stats comparison (today is on the left side):

Max hr: 172 vs. 177
Avg hr: 134 vs. 145
Distance: 1.90 miles (no change)
Calories: 184 vs. 181
In zone: 21:09 vs. 18:20

This feels like improvement, but I am kind of surprised to be able to see it like this. It's encouraging.

Running on Christmas Day before Christmas lunch was a good idea. I am pretty sure I will eat less because I am motivated/inspired. The scale helped today too - 120.2. That's the lowest I've seen in a very long while. When I started grad school in 2006 I was 116 so I am getting close to that.

Sarah got a new bike this morning so we will be going for a ride after lunch too. Should be a good fitness day.

I've been a little compulsive today. Run, EAT, ride bike, meet friends at bar, EAT, walk on treadmill. I suspect the scale will still be up tomorrow (pie for dinner and all) but at least I tried.
