i am now in breckenridge- 10,000 ft. makes it hard to run on top of snow and hills. i ran the us national x championships in boulder- there were 2 guys from Oki running for the marines. i did the masters 8K.

Plant based huh. Goya to the rescue! I use to drink alot of course. You know Marines….but now I try to limit myself to just two or three and some shots on the weekend and during the week, maybe 1 beer per two days.
Oh yea, I’m still here. And I’m staying here for another 3 years. Loving life!

a little more to it than that - i wouldn’ say high carb but plant-based with some healthy protein. the more veggies the better. spreading out your calories throughout the day, cutting most of the junk. how much beer?

But Hokka Hokka Tei is soooo good!
Yea, I have been hitting the tuna alot. Omega 3 fatty acids. So any kind of running combined with a healthy high carb diet will eliminate that fat?

you have to clean up that horrible diet- no excuses. pretty hard to run off extra fat without a change. you know the drill- oatmeal and fruit for breakfast, some kind of a snack, sub or something for lunch, snack, and reasonable dinner including a couple of veggie servings and some lean protein. be crative if you can’t eat normally- you can add slimfast to coffee as a snack, tuna and crackers, fruit, whatever. you can’t allow yourself to go too hungry. you’ll overeat every time. I must eat 20x a day when I am training hard,

Yes Dave. But I had a question, what is the most effective way to run and lose weight? Does it have to do with clothing or lenght?
