There's a 1st Time for Everything!!

Yesterday, I got free lunch. It was a large quantity, and I knew I shouldn't have eaten it all, but it wouldn't have been good sitting in the fridge for even 1 hour. So, I ate it all. It had a lot of salt in it, I was really thirsty when I was finished.

Today, at the gym, I ran sprints for 3 1/4 miles for the very first time ever!!! I looked and finished a 5k in 25:58 and finished the rest in 27:12. That is awesome!! I've never ran that fast before. I'm not sure if I did it correct, but I ran .1 miles on and .05 off. I am proud of myself and happy with the results!!

Afterwards, I headed over to my 1 hour spin class. Yet again, another hill class. I think the instructors get together and see how they can all torture their class with as much pain as possible. The harder the class, the better results. This is what I kept telling myself. Weights were next (nothing special about these).

When I got home, my body was craving protein, I looked in the fridge and found my favorite greek yogurt (no one is paying me to say this, it's true). I ate the entire container of Chobani blueberry yogurt with a tablespoon of PB (my favorite combination). It really hit the spot!





I love my yogurt (I have a I already said that?)!!




What's your favorite way to get protein in your body? I love chicken, too!!

    Greek yogurt might be my favorite protein! Although lately I've been loving chocolate protein powder in my oats for breakfast....with PB of course!

    I have been craving lots of eggs recently. But I also heart lean ground turkey. So good! I think that sandwich made you run faster... so it was totally okay. ;)

    Chobani is like crack, I've decided! Too good. But one of my favorite ways to get protein, for sure.

    Hard boiled eggs and hummus. I don't eat the middles. They are great with a lot of salt after a hot/hard run.
