… you eat. Am I the only one who is usually starving after long runs??? Today I ran over eight miles. Then I walked around a bit on the East Side of Providence. As I said before, breakfast was on the very light side (I am so making oatmeal tomorrow in hopes to get read…… Continue reading What happens after a long run…
Hey All: So, I missed yesterday (day four) so I will include a brief recap on that as well tonight. I am doing my best to keep up with eating healthily (not really a struggle for me at the moment), training, going to bed at a decent time, getting up early, laundry, cleaning my room…… Continue reading 2012 – Day Five
Gah. So I never got to the blog yesterday. I really don’t know why, because I didn’t do too much. Anyhow! Breakfast was a bowl of Autumn Wheat, my new favorite Kashi cereal. I especially like it because there is NO SODIUM in the cereal! I topped it with some banana, blueberries and 1% milk.…… Continue reading 2012 – Day Two (recap)
Another day of work complete! One of the good things about working this week is that the morning commute has been a dream come true today and yesterday. The evening commutes have not been, but I will take what I can get! I was exhausted this morning because I stayed up too late watching the…… Continue reading Hump Day on the Treadmill
I was reminded today that training does not start in earnest for another eight days. I am trying to remember that and feel less guilty about the snacks I had after lunch today! Darn that seven miles – it made me so hungry, as usual. After lunch I had some tortilla chips and (reduced fat)…… Continue reading Dinner
Happy Saturday, everyone! I am super disappointed right now. I had so much planned for this morning. I was going to get a head start on my shopping for the day (I have a list of the few things I need to pick up and I was going to my favorite stores on Hope Street…… Continue reading Change of Plans…
… have been crazy busy! Sometimes I feel like there are not enough hours in the day – and when the holiday season comes around, sometimes I don’t feel like I have nearly enough time to get everything done. But the last couple of days have been really fun. On Saturday my family ran in…… Continue reading The last couple of days…
I woke up still feeling less than my normal wonderful self for the third day in a row. So I ignored my 5:25 AM alarm and went back to sleep. I woke up again at 8 and got ready for work. It was sort of nice to have a cup of coffee at home and…… Continue reading Tuesday: Protein and bagels
Tuesday night I went to the gym after work and forced myself to do the elliptical machine for 32 minutes. I really did NOT want to go to the gym at all. But I told myself that if I just got to the gym and did half an hour on the elliptical, that is all…… Continue reading Chicken, vegetable noodles
Well, I’m having a pretty low key evening – but I am ok with that. I have been doing (much needed) laundry, I made a good dinner, watched some Food Network, and soon I’m going to read my Stephen King book. Dinner was a nice post – run and pre – run meal. Whole wheat…… Continue reading Low Key
