Falling for a great run.....

Hello! Hope your weekend is off to a great start!

Sorry didn't get to blog yesterday, was a busy bee.

Quick Recap though....

BREAKFAST
-pumpkin oats


LUNCH
-met my wonderful mom for lunch at our favorite spot
Turkey Rubini, basically a turkey ruben. Yum. With their crunch cole slaw kinda salad.
Also had some Pumpkin Cream tea.


After work I met up with the hubby and my sister-in-law for a drink.


Then the hubby and I headed home to make dinner. A friend of ours was on his way home for the weekend so we invited him over for dinner.

DINNER
We had some CSA brussel sprouts, roasted.....

And some CSA turnips & turnip greens...


TJ's Mahi Mahi


All in the oven....


Um and then I forgot to take a picture of my dinner... gah!

I was a little tired.

BUT I had leftovers after my run today.....



LONG RUN
this morning after a quick breakfast of oats, I was off for a 13 mile run.

It was a little chilly out, around 40 degrees with a breeze. But the sun was shining and the fall foliage was putting on a great show.


Of course I still needed to go buy some water..... :-)


Good run. Did 13.25 miles. Didn't wear a watch though, but I know my pace picked up a few times and I felt great. Actually had a driver give me the thumbs up and then when I caught him at a stop sign he asked if I was training for NYC. I told him it was a good guess and that I was. :-)

Alright I need to get some relaxing in.... we have a surprise party tonight. I've been doing laundry, switching clothes over from summer to winter and cleaning up the garden & deck planters. So if I don't relax soon, I'll be fading fast tonight!

Do you ever feel like you need to compensate for time "lost" while working out? While I was off running the hubby was mowing the lawn and cleaning up leaves..... so I felt like I had to do something product around the house too. But then that means I never really get around to the resting part. :(

Have a great night!!

  1. Hey chica :) Lots of pumpkin themed items (oats & tea)-love it! So perfect for right now. mmmm fresh brussels! I just picked a bundle up for tomorrow nights dinner (can't wait). I feel like I'm most productive on my heavy exercise days- I think it gives me the energy to make up for lost time! Enjoy the rest of your weekend
