Pizza Delivery - Dean Karnazes Style

I once read an interview with Dean Karnazes (Ultra Marathoner… yeah he runs 100+ miles at a time)… where he claimed to get Pizza delivered to him in the middle of his long training runs…

I am a bachelor this week with my family out of town, so in addition to staying up late and working long hours, I am not eating dinner until 9pm at night… Tonight I realized I hadn’t eaten or exercised, so I called the local pizza place (about 2 miles from my house) about 8:30, ordered a Calzone, ran to go pick it up, ran home, ate it… yum.

I am sure I didn’t burn nearly the calories I consumed… but it was the more calories burned than if I had driven or let them deliver.

Home alone, living the bachelor life . . . just so long as you remembered to change out of your pyjamas before going for that run! ;-)
