Monday March 12th (Challenge Day 1)

Day 1

After my long run yesterday I just worked some mobility and tried to roll out my calves with the tiger tail which were really tight..  I will make up the mile run on Wednesday night.

I did a sort of practice run of the 2 minute double unders but it didn't really go all that well for what I wanted.. Waaaay too many trip ups to get a good score.. I ended up with 159 in 2 minutes.. I'll call that my baseline for now, even if it is blatantly sandbagging a little bit, but I wanted to try to demolish that # at the end of 30 days.

For the next 30 days I will also be recording my nutrition here in case anyone wants to compare or gives a fuck.
Full disclosure: In my daily life I tend to eat "Paleo + some whey protein powder + sweet potato + organic peanut butter + some occasional dairy".. I will try to clean that up a bit for this challenge, but in general for me, weight loss is not a goal so the addition of dairy and some extra whey protein usually does not hurt me. I also have no lactose intolerance. I typically only eat it in the form of whole milk, some feta cheese on salad or omelets, and the occasional greek yogurt.. Bear in mind I have tested myself over the last two years with strict Paleo as well as these throw-ins, and this is the diet I have sort of settled on after a long time and experimenting.

5 am - Cashew Lara Bar + Coffee
9am - 2 eggs + bacon
Noon - Spinach Salad with peppers, carrots, celery, hard boiled egg, tuna, olive oil, and squash.
5pm - Smoothie - (I blend ice, coconut milk, almond butter, banana and whey in my blender..)
8pm- Omelet with asparagus and feta, side of sweet potato mash
