Sick, Tired, and TRYING to Stay Healthy...

Saturday I ran 8 miles- my longest TM workout yet.

Yesterday (Tuesday) I did this workout (found at Lola's Exercise Diaries- she got it from Fitness)- a nice, quick little cardio workout.

And today, I'm home sick, still not able to shake whatever it is I've got... Sigh...

Mmmmmmmmmm....

My smoothie of the moment:

Canned organic pumpkin
Nonfat Kefir
Soy Milk
Vanilla Protein Powder
Cinnamon

Pumpkin pie in a glass. So. Friggin. Good. I would have taken a picture, but I gulped it down before I got the chance...

15 days until Tough Mudder and I'm kind of panicking. Hoping to do a 7 mile run Saturday, a 9 miler on Tuesday and a 12 miler next Sunday, which will give me about 6 days for recovery... fingers crossed!

Monday's Goals For the Week

First post! I'm hoping to use this as part journal, part motivator for my upcoming fitness endeavors. I'm currently training for the TriState Tough Mudder on 11/20 (I ran the one in Allentown in May- it. was. awesome.) and then on to my first ever bikini fitness competition in March.

I'm hoping to start by posting goals for the week on Mondays, and then checking back in to see how I did...
