So follow up on my diet from yesterday - Bfast - nutri grain bar Snack - 1oz peanuts Lunch -  went out to La Nortena, a really good local mexican restaurant.  This isn't your typical americanized mexican place it's very authentic.  If you haven't been and you want to go just let me know when you're in town (for my out of town readers) or when you want to meet there (for my local readers).  It is possible to get a healthy meal believe it or not.  Fajita salad, grilled fish, etc.  It is also easy to get a not so healthy meal.  Rice, beans, fried stuff.  It all depends on what kind of mood you're in.  Yesterday I was in the mood to try something different so I went with one of their tortas (sandwich).  The one I had had carnitas (roast pork which sounds pretty healthy but it is cooked in lard which makes it absolutely delicious) beans, lettuce, cheese, tomatillo sauce, two tortillas (to keep the bun from getting soggy) and a sandwich bun.  Very messy.  Not knowing how big it was going to be, I ordered a side of rice and beans (yeah, yeah, I know).  Well the sandwich was very good and messy and big.  I gave away my rice and beans.  Had a few chips with salsa (which is made in house) and some guacamole (also made in house and very good).  I ended up very full.  Too full.  This leads me to dinner.  Family almost always hits Moe's on Tuesday nights for kids eat free night.  I met the wife and girls over by the mall but only had an un-sweet tea and a couple of chips dipped in queso.  Knowing I was running this morning I figured I might need to eat something.  Later that night I had what I call a 4 year old dinner, pb&j sandwich and a few crunchy cheetos and a glass of milk.   

So, no exercise on Tuesday.  The Monday AM in-between boot camp and the 4.5 mile run in the afternoon killed me.  I was sore all day Tuesday.  I hadn't been that sore in a long time.  Shows how quickly you can lose the fitness level you achieve in boot camp.  I felt good this morning when I rolled out of bed.  Went for a run with Greg, Mitchell, Val and Trica.  Again, about 4.5 miles at a good pace of about 12 minute/mile.  Saw Jen Dare and Jen Boulware out walking their dogs at a nice leisurely pace.  Had to fight to get around them.    Greg took it easy on me because I'm running a 5K Friday morning.  And as a side note, I must say, running with Greg is a trip.  I'll probably do the "boot camp" tomorrow morning but nothing this afternoon or tomorrow afternoon so I'm ready for the 5K.  I'm not sure if Dave and Grady read this blog but I am going to call them today to get them to run the 5K with me.
