The 8k challenge

So, I’m back. It’s been over a week since I wrote an update here. My bad!

First things first! There was an update from the good folks at Thyl.io. A week of monitoring my diet later, and after factoring in for the exercise I do (which right now is mostly walking), the math suggested I’m doing okay. I burn more calories than I consume. But I ought to do better.

So, the next challenge has been thrown at me. To do 8k every single day. And it’s non-negotiable. I’ve been doing between 4-5k every day. This is pretty much double what I do.

Did it for the time yesterday. I thought that would be easy as hell. It didn’t kill me. But the last 1k took the Mickey out of me. And boy oh boy! I got mad hungry and kept eating like a beast!

Thought I’d wake up today and do a 3k in the morning and a 5k later in the evening — break the walk up. But didn’t happen. I just slept it out and the body wanted to rest. So, that’s what I’ve been doing. Working and resting.
