2 Weeks from Cozumel

Last long workout before Cozumel IM.

Weight in the morning was 166.4. Total time working out was between 5:50 and 6 hours. Still haven't downloaded the Garmin data. Weight at end was an even 161. Water consumed was 90oz + whatever fits in the 32oz container with 12 scoops of Infinit. Cool day, but I still ran out of water at around mile 85. Need to lug the camel back or stop at more gas stations. Only refill was around mile 40. Carried large AeroDrink and two 20oz bottles. Peed once during workout, but didn't measure. Nasty.

Calories was all from Infinit. 1800 calories in 6 hours. All consumed during the 5hr 15min ride. Nothing during the run. Breakfast was a bowl of frosted shredded wheats and Ensure.

That's the basics while it's fresh in my head. I'll add the Garmin data later... maybe.

Diet

In an effort to save some money, I'm going to see if I can keep track
of everything I eat and drink for a few weeks. If I still can't
figure out how to drop at least a pound every 2 weeks, then I'll
seriously consider hiring a nutritionist. At around $600 for 8
weeks, they aren't cheap. My goal is to weigh between 150 and 155
pounds by April 19th, for the Boston Marathon. I haven't been that
light in the last 10 years.

Heaviest I've weighed is 190 lbs, in June I think of 2007. After losing 20 lbs in about 8 months, my weight is unchanged over the last 2 years.

Initial stats are:
11/5 - 2845 cal - 58/17/25 Carb/Pro/Fat
11/6 - 165.4 pounds
