NYR - November results

  • NYR # 1 - Run
No competitive race this month but I did some training for the 10K race I decided to do at the Lanzarote International Marathon at the beginning of December. Never as much as I feel I should. But checking up on my records more than I thought I did. So...

Result: Passed. 
  • NYR # 2 - Read
I started to read a book in a language that I don't speak. Silly of me, really.

Result: Major fail.

  • NYR # 3 - Eat
As the temperatures drop, I have been in the mood for warmer meals. I have cook meat & 1 veg dinners like: steak & carrots with mash, turkey steak with caramelised onions and boiled potatoes. Comfort food indeed. And I baked carrot cake muffins, delish! Sorry but not photos for any of these...

 I have also recently been introduced to McFlurrys and damn, they are good! Luckily I am making a concious effort to eat more fruit either at breakfast or after my meals. The trick: peal it and have it ready, so no excuses for being lazy. Very happy indeed.

The only photographic evidence, my warm chicken and potato salad:


Result: Passed. 

  • NYR # 4 - Walk 
The daily long walks with the mutts have been replaced with up to 3 small little strolls a day. I also did one of my longest training route with my four-legged companion. 

Result: Passed.


Sumarising: Again, 3 out of 4 ain't bad, baby!
