wednesday light

i slept in...i can't tell you the last time i slept in...almost until 7am...totally amazing...it was great...and i really needed it...i'm hoping for a few more of these this week...as it is rest week...after some lolly gagging around the house i rode my mtn bike to the gym at school...did a short but good weight routine and was in and out in about 45 minutes....not much going on at the gym on a wednesday morning in the summer...i wonder how much that will change in the year...

then off to a few campus buildings to see if i can get a transfer class approved and then to prove my residency...please let this work...tuition will kill me if it doesn't...

home to read and try and figure out what we are going to eat for the next few weeks....j and i are starting in on an elimination diet to see what is causing issues...we have had suspicions of different items but this will help us out for sure...rice, potatoes, veg, fruit, and meat fish or poultry for 2 weeks...no wheat, soy, dairy...going to keep corn in there and if we still have issues after 2 weeks...we know to take out corn...then we add back one thing for one day and see how that goes...it is going to take a while but i think that it is going to be a good thing...so having to clear out things that i might be tempted to eat...but that is ok...and stocking up on rice, rice noodles corn tortillas etc...

after it was pouring rain for about 20 minutes i decided that it was probably going to stop...knowing the weather around here...so i was off to track practice...we did a set of 1600, 1200, 800, 400 with some drills warm up and cool down...i was totally drenched but felt good...ran the 1600 in 7.35 at about an 85% effort...was chatting with jeremiah about that...it used to seem utterly out of my reach to run any mile under 8...i like progress it's good...
