Chai Brussels Sprouts

October 25, 2009

I couldn’t decide what I wanted to eat tonight.  So I ate a little bit of everything.  Problem solved. I’ve been seriously lacking in the fruits and veggies department lately.  This is highly unusual for me, so I was craving all kinds of produce at dinner. An apple with peanut butter. Kale Chips.

October 22, 2009

I ran 7 miles tonight! My previous PDR was 5 miles, so I’m so excited about this.  I think I can definitely do my 15K this Sunday… its only another 2.3 miles. Unfortunately, I forgot to clock my time.   But I think I averaged just under a 12:00 pace. Pre-run, I fueled up with [...]

Blog and Run…

September 22, 2009

I slept in this morning, which was apparently just what my body needed!  I still had enough time to get some biking in before class, though; I love Tuesday and Thursday classes. Distance: 10.0 miles Time: 44:41 For some reason, the ride (on my trainer) felt really hard today.  Either my muscles are still tired [...]
