Training

The past couple of days have been super busy. I am not sure when I'm going to have time to write good post. My training for Tuesday was rest so I rested with a wonderful Facial from Glow. If you haven't been there you must go. Urcela is my favorite person to see for these types of things!

Wednesday, my meals were pretty balanced until dinner. Had greek yogurt, fruit, granola, and honey for breakfast, banana for a snack, Spring mix salad with Feta cheese for lunch. For dinner, I had some of these....

Fried Okra from Smoke Station are the best. A great local guitarist Eric Culberson was playing on the porch their tongiht. It was a real treat to sit and listen to him. Normally he plays in a larger venu and it's hard to relax.


My workout for Wednesday was a slow 30 minute run. That was on the plan so that is what we did.
Kristen and I ran 2.55 miles in 30 minutes. That was a pretty slow pace but that is ok. It was soo hot and I know it will only get worse.

Thursday was Rest. However, I didn't rest because I wasn't sure if I could work out on Friday or not. I headed to the Y. I did cross training #1 on the eliptical for 30 minutes, covered 2.5 Miles. I felt really good after it. I think I could have been challenged more but it was good. I hit the weights and worked on arms, shoulders and as always abs. I spent a lot of time stretching because it felt soooo good!

When I got home I cooked up some Shrimp Stir Fry for us. Fresh wild caught Georgia shrimp was at the grocery store so I grabbed those. I have the best hubby, he peeled and deveined them while I was at the gym..



This morning rolled around and I decided to get up and run to stay with the training program. Today was a 40 min pace run. The goal is to jog at an easy pace for 20 min then run a pace run for 1 min and then an easy run for 1 minute. You will repeat this 5 times and finish with a 10 minute easy run. I ran 3.26 Miles at 38.40min. (I got around the track to my car so I stopped!) I know that is not good but I was pretty pooped!

Busy weekend ahead! Will blog about it later. Have a great weekend.
