Well start off with the rest of yesterday's eats. Lunch was the left over BBQ chicken pizza from Uno's.

My afternoon snack today was a 1/4c. of Trader Joe's ABC Trek Mix. I love it because it's a mix of almonds (my most favorite nut ever!) and dried blueberries and cranberries and some golden raisins for good measure. Yummy yummy! I actually wrote a blog via email about this, but it never posted. I'm going to have to work on that because what's the point of having a super sweet iPhone if you can't even blog from it right?


After dinner I had some of the Trader Joe's fro-yo. I said I was on a kick didn't I?

- 1/2 c. TJ's non-fat Plain Frozen Yogurt
- 1/4 c. pomegranate arils
- 2 T. shredded coconut
- 1/4c. oats.
However, as promised, I got up at 7:45 and went for my 6 mile run. I really wish I'd had my camera, or at least my phone with me, because it was absolutely gorgeous, but since I run with as little stuff on me as possible, I didn't. Maybe tomorrow I'll ride my bike on the route I rant today and take some pics.
The run itself was really well. Previously the furthest I've run outside was 4.75 miles, but I figured 6 wouldn't be a problem since I had run 7 on the indoor track without much problem. I've always struggled more outside than anywhere else. I started off pretty slow, but I finished the whole run (including a short warm-up and cool-down) in 65 minutes so I managed to maintain about a 10:30 minute/ mile pace. I'll totally take that. I also wasn't hurting too much. I was definitely feeling it in that last mile, but it was a good push.
After my run, I toasted a homemade toaster waffle and topped it with the pumpkin filling Caitlin used in her Sweet Breakfast Burritos. I was too lazy to make pancakes and too hungry to take pictures, but it was delicious. After breakfast I did some serious shopping. I ended up getting 3 pairs of dress pants (size 10!), 3 camis (M!), a cardigan sweater, and a pair of jeans (size 8!) from Penny's and 5 Old Nave Fleece scarves (Hey it was $1 scarf day, and my BFF works at Old Navy!) Check it out!

I've got a birthday party for a friend tonight in Indiana. I'll try to take some picture for you all to enjoy. Right now I need to pull together some dinner and get myself ready.
The dining hall at my university has fro yo and I LOOOVEE putting shredded coconut on top of it too. My sister thinks it's gross but I love it lol
ReplyDeleteYay for new pants that fit! :)
Your food looks delish! I make English muffin pizzas sometimes, but never BBQ chicken versions. Definitely have to give that a try! Almonds are my fave nut too, and I'm on an almond butter kick. A tablespoon on a whole wheat mini bagel topped with some banana slices is my new favorite snack/breakfast.
ReplyDeleteSounds like your run went fab, too! Way to go.
