Hey! Well, I had my alarm set for 5:00 this morning and turned it right off. I ended up getting out of bed at 5:45… I guess I needed the extra time to sleep or something.
I used to could just roll out of bed and start working out right away, but alas I can’t do that anymore. I have to wake up before I start doing anything. So I opted to do my run after work today.
The work day was pretty long…. 8:15 to 6:00. I was really ready to get home and get my run on. I didn’t have much of an appetite today for some reason.
Breakfast:
1 egg/egg beaters combo, 1 orange, and 1 english muffin.
Snack:
I totally failed to take a picture, but I had 10 chipotle pretzel crisps.
Lunch:
Kale chips (made last night) and a turkey wrap.
In the wrap: turkey slices, spinach/arugula, lettuce and guacamole.
For some reason I just could get all of this down. As the day went on, so did my appetite. That is…I didn’t have one. I even brought an apple that I didn’t end up eating…
Dinner:
Turkey burger minus the bun, one small red potato, and some steamed veggies.
Holy cow this was so good! Or maybe it was because I was so hungry after my run!
Well hello there appetite!
Workout:
3 miles easy pace run. I felt a little sluggish on this run, but I think that it was mainly not having a whole lot of food in my stomach. I am really enjoying this training program that Cait has me on. I love that I can ask her about anything running related and she doesn’t make me feel like it’s a bad question at all. I think that is really important in a coach/trainee’s relationship.
I get texts at the perfect time and they are always encouraging! Thank you Cait!!
Mile One: 9.48
Mile Two: 9.43
Mile Three: 9.39
Total Time: 29.19
Average Pace: 9.43
I actually get to chill out in the morning!! I go in late to work and I am so glad! I get so much accomplished when I have more time in the morning. I also like the quiet time.
Check you guys later!













Looks like a super healthy day.. even minus your appetite!
I’ve never had kale chips, but have been meaning to try them – how do you make them?
They are really good! I just took some fresh kale and put some olive oil and some seasoning (any kind will work)stirred it up and then put them on a cookie tray and baked them in the oven at 475 until they were crispy.
yum!
Sounds easy enough! I’ll let u know how they turn out!
They really are!
So many things you can do with them
You eat super healthy. You wouldn’t want to know all the junk that I ate!
Lol! I don’t always make the best choices either!
