Friday workout: 2 mile run
******************************************************************
Thursday was pretty hectic and I had two options:
1. Workout (plyometrics)
2. Clean the house because my dad is coming over from Texas for the weekend!
I obviously picked # 2. I cleaned the ENTIRE HOUSE, and the outside courtyard and stairs! According to this calorie calculator I burnt about 475 calories during the 90 minutes of housework! SCORE!
Yesterday’s meals were:
Breakfast: Oatmeal (same as earlier this week, I didn’t want to bore you guys with another repetitive picture!
Snack: Coffee, I needed it to function.
Lunch # 1: Amy’s Pot Pie
Lunch # 2: Veggie burger and corn with strawberry vinaigrette.
Dinner: pasta with garlic, onions and green peppers.
I also had two mini muffins for dessert. We went to bed around 8:45pm, I was so exhausted I could barely keep my eyes open after dinner.
Today I woke up early for a short 2 mile run. This crazy humidity is driving me nuts, I felt like a complete mess this morning. My headband, Iphone arm band and glasses were sliding off due to the heat, humidity and sweat . My fuel belt was way too bouncy and my shirt was way too hot.
I guess it’s that time a year again, the time when anything more than shorts and a sports bra makes for an unbearable run. The first couple of days I always feel a little uncomfortable running in a sports bra, but I don’t have much of a choice if I want to enjoy my runs!
My meals so far today were:
Breakfast: waffles with strawberry jelly and almond butter
Lunch: Butternut squash soup and crackers.
Lunch #2: 3 spinach pancakes with sweet and sour sauce.
Now it’s time for a nap before our ‘make your own pizza’ night with friends!
Yay for the weekend!
