I took 2 days off from rowing so I thought this morning would be a good time to see if I could lower my 500m time. I did a 500m warm-up and then the 500m fast. My old time was 1:43. The young kid, age 18 or 19, at the gym rowed a 1:37 last week. I wanted to beat my time and try to catch him. Well I started off at a 1:37 pace and couldn't really get under that and then on the last 110m or so I ran out of steam completely and finished in 1:40. I'm glad I beat my old time. I need to remember that the damper was on a 6. Not sure that was the best choice.
I was at the Pac-12 Championship game this afternoon and I took a protein bar with me which I ate around 3:30. By halftime at 4:15 Ed was talking to me telling me I wanted more food etc. Ugh. I wrote out what he and I said back and forth to each other on a scratch paper pad that I carry around in my purse. I went to Islands tonight and tried their sweet potato fries, along with a bun-less grilled chicken sandwich. Now I think they may have the best fries. Better than Lucilles for sure. Probably better than the Cheesecake Factory as well. Ed tried to bother me tonight and I did just eat some stuff that I hadn't planned on eating-a banana, a protein drink, and some macadamia nuts. I wasn't hungry but it wasn't a binge either. If I stay up it could turn into an eating spree so here's to sleep. I need to sleep more. Now that bball is essentially over maybe that will happen.
