back on the grind!

yep yep,
its back to the grind for many different things in my life.

i decided i want to run the half marathon next year (the bmo one)

and run 2 10k runs (sun run and nike run).

saturday was the first day of punishing training.

the aim: (eventually)

4 yoga sessions in the morning,

4 short 7k runs after work,

+ 2 longer runs on the weekend (anywhere from 10-21k)

with friday as my day of rest.

time to get serious and really lose this weight.

right now,

im at 3 yoga sessions in the morning,

1 short 7k run after work,

and 1 10k run on saturday.

time to let the beat build...biiiiiiiiiiiiiitch!

(to quote lil wayne).

im back to regular drawing sessions,

and im around 30% done.

currently listening to:

lil wayne - the carter 3

the game -lax

de la soul - mosaic thump

beastie boys - check your head

gang starr - daily operation/hard to earn

5000.

cheese ramen? (kintaro ramen - robson + denman) gotta try it once.

that was tasty.

some other memorable meals good and bad:
