Resolution Update

Yesterday I started my running regimen.  I used the Couch to 5k app on my iPhone, which is a 3-day a week program that helps you run a full 5k in 8 weeks.  I decided that in order for me to actually get into a running habit, I will need to up that amount to 5 days per week.  I will be running on the days I don't have to work my second job in the weekday evenings, as well as both days on the weekend.  So my plan is to run Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday.  I'll have Monday and Thursday off.  That seems doable.  I hope to start the Couch to 10k workout on Feb. 7, cutting out a full two weeks of the program.  Time to get in shape and running 5 miles three days each week!

Gluten-Free update: I have decided that I will not go entirely gluten free.  I did some research and found out that barley is gluten, which means I wouldn't be able to drink beer.  That's not an option.  Instead, I will stay away from wheat products and cut out white sugar (which I don't really eat anyway).  Basically, I will be gluten free with the exception of beer.   I just can't give up beer.
