Been A While Ay?

i didn't realize it had been so long since i had blogged. friday i did a p90x chest and back workout, saturday i did not get my long run in. i was off work but very tired and unmotivated all day long. that evening i had to go to my mother's birthday dinner and thought i would get home in time to run. didn't happen, and people came over to the house for a while so i called it a night and ran 8 on sunday on the treadmill. my time was 1:23.34, a pace of 10:27, not too bad, but i really wanted to do my long runs on pavement. monday i ran 4 miles in 39:40, a 9:55 pace, my legs still felt tired from the 8 mile run the day before and it was very hot in the garage, but i got through it. i skipped the p90x workout last night since i felt so tired. i did it tonight (chest/shoulders/tris/abs) and pushed tonights scheduled workout (yoga) off until another day. thought of the day: i have been trying a new diet for the last 2 days. i am not sure how it is going to affect my running but i thought it would be good to do while i am still running shorter runs to lose a little weight for the longer runs when i really need to be fueled properly. it is mainly meats and vegetables, no fruits and no dairy and no sugary drinks (even though once a week i get to eat whatever i want). we will see how it works, you would think running greater than 20 miles per week and doing p90x 5-6 days a week would help me lose a little weight, not sure that is has yet. we'll see.
