Today I hit a new milestone. I'm at my lightest weight since the early 1980's! Yay me!

Today is my rest day with a refeed. It appears the diet I'm on is similar to one called the spike diet. That diet is basically 6 days at your BMR calories with 1 day 'spike' of 2x BMR. Mine is a little more structured as I focus on carbs for my refeed while the spike diet allows anything on the 'spike' day. Whatever this diet is called it appears to be working well.

My workouts for last week.

Monday - 20 intervals, 30 sec fast, 1 min jog Fastest pace 6:14/mile
Tuesday - Weights, upper body/core
Wednesday - 80 min run, 7.5 miles, 10:38/mile
Thursday - Weights, legs/lower body
Friday - 50 min run, 4.75 miles, 10:32/mile
Saturday - 105 min run, 9 miles, 11:37/mile

Last week was the end of my Workout base training. Next week starts Hills. I don't think I'll have the calorie burn I've had this week but it will be challenging.

I hope everybody is having a great weekend.
