Overall thoughts on the day: I feel great today. I put in a great workout and I ate very healthy. I bought all my food and assembled my lunches and snacks (and dinner for tomorrow night since I go from work right to class with an hour to spare), up until Wednesday.
Score on today's healthiness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
I gave today a nine because while everything was pretty spot on, I definitely need to eat more protein. Protein will keep me full and will help me build muscle. I should have incorporated chicken in my salad or eggs for breakfast.
Workout:
8:30 am - I ran 7.1 miles today in 1:08 (mostly uphill too!). Check out the route here. I am super proud of myself. It was sooo cold this morning, but I was determined to run (I have a half marathon in TWO weeks that I have done NO training for!). Aside from some blistering on my left foot, I felt awesome. I ran a surprisingly good 9:35 pace, which I wasn't expecting, especially considering I ran a 10 min. pace last Sunday when I only ran 5.5 miles. The last 1.5 miles I BOOKED it, which helped me shave off about 5 secs per mile from my pace. My thighs are really tight, despite stretching, so I am going to try and incorporate yoga into my day/night to help loosen me up. I ran from my house to my dads and then halfway back (and had my bf pick me up). I am not devouring a nice and toasty English Muffin w organic PB and a Honey Dew toasted almond iced coffee with cream and agave nectar.
