Lots of Announcements

Happy Wednesday… Not so happy tho when I woke up and it was 40 degrees and I had a planned track workout! Did 1000 again (x8) MY LUNGS WERE BURNING! But i made it through and my average pace has went from around 3:47 to 3:44… I RECOMEND IF YOU DO A TRACK WORKOUT TO ALWAYS TRY TO FINISH AND INSTEAD OF CUTTING IT SHORT, TAKE LONGER BREAKS BETWEEN SETS IN ORDER TO TRY TO KEEP THE SAME CONSISTENT PACE.  TUESDAY Yesterday I had a test, which went well and I got bck my other test which was the True/False disaster.. and I end up getting a 98% … Go figure, after a long day at school I came home to have a veggie filled dinner… it was like HOW MANY VEGGIES CAN I FIT IN ONE BOWL! Huge salad with shredded broc & carrots, green pepper, tomato, mango, fava beans, zucchini, wheat germ, goat cheese, avocado, balsamic vinegar and Amy’s Bistro Burger ( which is chock full of veggies.) WHEN IT IS A LONG DAY I USUALLY MAKE VEGGIE BURGERS BECAUSE IT IS QUICK, EASY AND NUTRITIOUS.   I I like variety when I eat so I took half the burger and put it in a wrap with some cottage cheese and some broccolii slaw… it was very good! I get a so many emails for nutrition/exercise newsletter I enjoy… and one that is great is SUPERMARKET GURU… I am sure some of you have heard of this man Phil Lempert… he gives great product reviews, recipes and nutrition info (www.supermarketguru.com) They are making a lot of changes to update their cite and it has been great! Check out the video on the product reviews for this week.. Continue reading
