A Trial Run
So I had some time last night and went out and did a "trial run" for this new fat-loss plan. I got on the treadmill for 2 hours, just like I will during the next 10 weeks. Some things I learned:
-This will be incredibly monotonous, bordering on boring. An iPod is essential and I will have to update all of my playlists in order to get me through this. I'm actually considering getting a video iPod and getting caught up on all my old episodes of Lost or anything else to keep me distracted.
-A water bottle is essential. I stared with a full 30oz bottle and had to refill it twice - I'm consuming a lot of water during the 2 hours.
-Recovery will be important. I feel OK this morning, but I will need at least 20 hours between each workout in order to not burn myself out.
