Consider trying to find a running group in your area. Training outside and with other people really cuts down the monotony of distance running. Even if you only meet up one day a week, it will add some extra motivation and entertainment so you don't burn out due to boredom. If you have no choice but to use the treadmill, have set points where you change the incline and/or speed to bring some variety to your running. It will also more closely mimic a road race where there's some changes in terrain. |

I hope I am interpreting your question correctly, but I think I know what your problem is. Carbs and protein both have 4 calories per gram while fat has 9 calories per gram. So Although you took in 3 times as many grams of protein as fat, the total percentage of fat-derived calories is 18.2% due to it's higher caloric density. Hope that helps. |
