Project back on track- Decreasing %body fat

For the past couple weeks I have been getting up at 6am and walking/jogging/sprinting along the Augusta Riverwalk. [dawn,dawn+2hrs] is the only time interval that is good for a nice cool walk.

Part of my motivation stems from my vibram 5 fingers shoes, which I am really enjoying the feel of. This is the video that piqued my curiosity about barefoot running. My legs and feet have had to adjust though. After a 2 mile jog +7 mile hike I experienced some pain on the top of my feet. I believe that my extensor tendons were inflamed a little. This happens to people who are switching to forefoot running. So I am taking it easy and just walking in the mornings so I can do my best with the FATS trail running group on Sunday. My goal is to do 2-4miles. I love trail running, the ground gives way nicely and I am out in nature.

Today plan to do a p90x biceps and back workout. I am waiting to adjust my calories till my body adjusts to this new level of exercise. I am taking almost daily video of my figure, but I am going to put off posting the "before pics" till I have some decent "after pics". Here is my weight log.
