Since my foot injury last Fall, I have managed to put on a few extra pounds. I was able to do a little elliptical but my heart wasn't in it much. In these last few months there was also a vacation, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years! But now that I am able to get back out there and run, I need to start getting serious about getting these extra pounds off.
So I am thinking that this will be a good way to keep track of my goals, workouts and how things are going. My first thought is to really make sure I only worry about myself and how I am doing. I get on here sometimes and I will read other fitness bloggers and really feel like maybe I'm not doing enough. I am really impressed with their routine, workouts and dedications for sure but I need to focus on what I do and just focus.
Love this and so true!
Today I will be doing a run on the treadmill (since the weather here is bad) and my goal is 3 easy miles. This is the part that kills me! My long run for the week being 3 miles!! But it is what it is and my goal is to get back out there without getting another injury or same injury! I'm sure I will be back up in good miles before I know it......then it will be a different kind of complaining! Also on tap is a shoulder, bis and tris workout!
Long, fast, short, slow or tempo....running does make my soul happy!
Okay, here is a quick and easy recipe for the very popular No Bake Energy Bites! I love these and they are so easy to make and are a quick healthy snack before my run or workout!
No Bake Energy Bites
1 cup (dry) oatmeal, 1/2 cup chocolate chips, 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1/2 cup ground flaxseed, 1/3 cup honey, 1 tsp. vanilla
mix all ingredients together and roll into approximately 1inch balls and refrigerate!
What is your favorite go to snack before a workout?
