10 miles. 1,445 calories. BRING ON THE STEAK!

If you read my last post you should know tonight's the big night - dinner at Donovan's.

And I am READY! I was out at the crack of 5 a.m. this morning pounding uphill pavement in the McDowell Mountains, from dark of night through sunup. And I'm finishing up a light breakfast of veggies and chicken soup while typing this post.

So waiter, tonight don't even bother describing the house arugula salad encrusted in wheat germ. I shall have no interest in the broccoli français au miniscule either. I've put in several weeks of heart-healthy dining, thank you very much, and it's time to claim back a few days of that extra longevity I've been building up. Time to be carnivorous! BRING ON THE STEAK!
