… 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…
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)
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
Is this a long week for anyone else or is it just me? Just wondering. So. On Tuesday I had lunch with my friend Nichole and she recapped her most recent success running the Philadelphia Marathon the weekend before Thanksgiving. I had butternut squash soup and a piece of Arnold’s double protein bread while we…… Continue reading The week so far…

It is always a good feeling when you can get back to working out AND eating well at the same…… Continue reading Wednesday’s re-cap
Hey ya’ll – happy hump day. I had some decent eats today. Highlights? Lavender honey from the Troy, New York’s Farmer’s Market… so good! My salad was a hit, too. Let’s start with breakfast. Another whole wheat english muffin from Whole Foods. This time with the Saratoga peanut butter (also from the Troy farmer’s market) and the…… Continue reading Hump Day Breakfast and Lunch…
Well, there is nothing like a fourteen plus hour day for your first day back in the office. No, I’m not kidding. I left my house at 6:10 this morning and got back home at 8:20 tonight. No, I did not go to the gym. I got home from work at 8:20 tonight. I quickly…… Continue reading Long Day…

Sunday’s recap: Since yesterday’s run was so horrible, I made an effort to get my butt in gear a little earlier this morning. I set my alarm for 7:55 and eventually got out of bed by 8:20. I ate half a banana, had a small cup of coffee and was out on the trail by…… Continue reading Run and a Reward
