Marathon Training Week 9

So I am in my ninth week of training for the Marine Corps Marathon. I just hopped on the scale and was pleasantly surprised to see that I have dropped nearly 10 pounds!!  Woohoo!  I have had little to no changes in diet so far.

I started out at 188 LBS on week 1.  So you CAN lose significant weight just exercising 4 times a week.  I have not made any changes to my diet.  For the next phase of my training I will need to make some diet changes and quit eating the larger portions when we go out to eat.  My goal is to get back down to a “playing weight” of 170 pounds for the Marathon in October.
