Breakfast
This weeks repeat offender, water with Crystal Light mix:
Tazo Awake Tea:
1 jazz apple:
This is the first time I've had a jazz apple and it was good. I like my apples with a little bit more tart. I think I will stick with Pink Lady's, so good, and how can you go wrong with a food named after characters in Greece!
Lunch
I was so excited to dig into my lunch today. I brought Amy's Organic Soups Fat Free - Alphabet! I LOVE this soup!
I was looking forward to eating this soup all day. I think there is something to be said for bringing your lunch to work. I like knowing exactly what I'm going to eat and being able to look forward to it all morning.
Salad with peppers, beans, mushrooms, cucumbers, eggs and tuna with a balsamic dressing.
And for dessert, a Chocolate Truffle from Molly's in Chicago!
This was heaven in the mouth. BEST truffle I've EVER had!!!
Happy Hour
Yet again the husband and I went to Ceres and I had a Captain Diet Coke.
Running Plans
My husband and I decided, this morning, that we are going to do a 5K run this year. We decided to do the "Run to Remember" on Saturday, May 1! I'm both nervous and excited about this joint endeavor. I've never been a runner but have always admired those people who found enjoyment and "going for a run" was a fun and relaxing thing to do. I want that! I really need to find ways to help with my stress levels and I think running might just be it.
I'm starting my "training" this coming Monday and plan to follow the Couch-to-5K running plan. After all, the title of the plan does describe what I'm trying to accomplish;) If anyone has any words of advice they would be greatly appreciated!
Wish me luck!

I did my first 5k last may with a couch-to-5k plan, it worked great and the race was so fun :-)
ReplyDeleteI just bouth Jazz apples this week too. I thought they were good, but also prefer the pink lady's! Good luck with the couch to 5K plan. I followed this same plan to start running last September. I had never been a runner, but always did some other kind of exercise i.e. elliptical, step aerobics, etc. This plan was fantastic!! I can now run 3 - 4 miles for normal workouts and feel great! I know you will have success if you follow this plan! GOOD LUCK!!!
ReplyDeleteA 5K will be fun!! I think it's great that the 2 of you are doing it together...
ReplyDeleteGood Luck with your first 5K run! To a first time runner it's a HUGE accomplishment.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first starting running I couldn't even jog for 1k without stopping to walk. I never really trained for it, but slowly I ran more and more.
I did my first 5K run in 2003 with the encouragement of my sister because I wanted a free t-shirt!! I've kept up with running ever since.
i heard a rumor that awake tea is being discontinued at starbucks! EEK!! :)
