Today was a pretty good day. This was my first longish trail run in weeks. The weather was lightly sprinkling and the temperature was perfect with tights and a jacket on. The pace was very conservative, and the goal was to simply enjoy the experience. Many instances during the run I just stopped to enjoy listening to the birds, rain, and the light breeze.

Another thing is that would have liked to have eaten more calories. Part of this diet is the goal of eating a lot of food. The idea is to be getting as many clean nutrients as possible, not cutting back on calories and food to lose weight and "be healthy". With the 10 mile run I only net 1,000 calories today. That's not very much!

I visited two graduation parties, and munched on lots of watermelon, a few other pieces of fruit, and the two salads. The only non raw item I ate today was the little bit of dressing I put on the two salads. No potato salad, no potato chips, no cupcakes. I did my best to remember this quote:

The main cause of failure and unhappiness is trading what you want most in life for what you want most at the moment.
