Today I tried to run a 4+ It was more a 2+2. My time was pretty sad, 1:20:03, pretty sad. It was more of an endurance limitation though. My first two miles were 29:21 which would get me through the half marathon.
Clearly, I need to get more distance running in. If I cannot get my 4+ to under 50 minutes by the end of Lent then the 1/2 marathon in June may be too much.
As far as my weight, I hope that I can lose 15 lbs in 7 weeks. Totally doable, maybe I can impress myself and lose 25, that is possible because I am cutting out a large portion of meat starting Wednesday.
That would be 3.5 lbs a week or 12250 calorie deficit per week or 1750 per day. My current BMR is 2304. That means I can eat only 554 calories per day plus whatever I burn working out. Walking 3 miles a day will add 500 calories. Add to that a general workout that will burn another 500 to 1000 calories and I think it can be done.
