2013 is upon us, and with the new year comes a convenient point from which to begin a more determined training/eating plan.
As you can see from my NYE picture, i may (or may not) be carrying too much weight -although admittedly a lot of this bulk could was lost in about 20 seconds at the end of the night.
As most cyclist's and runners already know, shedding extra kilo's generally equates to more speed and after at least one month of eating everything in chocolaty in sight, it is now time to (slightly reluctantly) eat more healthily. Which means no chocolate, processed sugars or more worryingly... biscuits (which means shares in Maryland cookies are about to take a huge hit - cash in now if you happen to own any).
Alongside this ban on processed food - generally considered as anything nice, i will also be attempting to limit my meat intake and embark on a more heavily vegetarian diet. Not completely veggie just predominately vegetable based. My reading of a few ultra-runners/triathletes autobiographies has convinced me that in order for you to develop physically you need to fuel and prepare your body correctly, and that an excess of meat is not ideal.
So im off to explore the delights of vegetables!
