I really hope my nutrition challenge gets easier as the 30 days goes on. I actually got up and started walking to the pantry for a snack last night out of habit, and then I remembered that i wasn't snacking. On the plus side - the essay should be easy. I have a lot to write about already.
As for requirements...my runs have been real slow. My neighborhood is super hilly, so I don't expect the same pace I got on the track. But I'm slower than I was. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm not happy about it.
