I'll Keep Running and Running

The gym felt so good today. I ran 4 1/4 miles on the treadmill. I wanted to keep running and running. My legs just wanted to keep going and going. I almost wish I didn't have my spin class today. I would have felt off by skipping my spin and continued running. I'm a very scheduled oriented person. I love sticking to schedules. I have post-its and little notes all over and also reminders in my phones of what needs to happen when.

After getting things done around the house, I made dinner. Most of the dinner was made, I just needed to put it together and heat it up. I made chicken pot pies, my own way. I took my pre-cooked chicken (from Saturday when I roasted that entire chicken)

I added some gravy and water under a bag of frozen veggies (thawed).

Then I made some biscuits (un-cooked) and placed them on top and brushed them with a little butter. I made some extra biscuits and had them on the side.


I used 4 oz. ramekins and made 4 of these (2 for me and 2 for hubby). I am stuffed and I feel like I ate a pretty healthy meal. There's no need for a snack tonight. I do feel like drinking some wine, though. I'm not sure why. I'm glad we don't have any, because that's the last thing I need before my long run tomorrow.
What is your favorite comfort food?

  5. Those look great, like the biscuit topping. I'd say burritos are my comfort food.

  6. I'm back!! Sorry for the lack of comments.


    I LOVE runs like that. For me they seem to come pretty few and far between, but that is as close to the 'zone' as I ever get
