Check it out, yo:

Ran 7 miles yesterday and weights.
I tried the ‘captain’s chair’ for the first time yesterday and was really excited about that. I don’t know if I should do it in booty shorts again, though I think some of the regulars wouldn’t mind. (Sweatdrop)

Gonna shoot for 10 mi. Later today for the hell of it and another go at the captain’s chair.

Over and out.

(Surprise ninja tackle hugs!) <(°¬°< )*

Skip the “diet,” fool! (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ

Diet… technically everything we eat is a diet, healthy or not.

But nonetheless,

True that, dawg.

Obsessed is a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated.

 

I like it Raw.

Not pictured: Bag of wf ginger snaps I’ve been nursing for a few days. Working on a self-intervention at the gym now. Need to tame the sugar before it tames me. That means avoid alcohol by any means necessary!

Over and out.

Vegan Stuffed Portobello = SO GOOD

Vegan Stuffed Portobello, with vegan cheese, quinoa, red and green peppers, tomato. This. Now. In my belly. 7 miles and weights this afternoon. 10 miles and weights last night after class. Abduction machines are my friends. Feeling good. Over and out.

I got the veggie krunch from the green festival I went to yesterday. Mmm, kale. Also included is vegan carrot cake, vegan blueberry loaf, synergy kombucha, and bhakti ginger chai. Ovenight shift going pretty well, holding the fort down in these parts.

Over and out.

Raspberries are always the first to go.

And you know I killed the last of the strawberries.

Simple Breakfast. Eating soy again makes me a bad girl.

Steamed kale, tomato, sesame, soy chicken. (Not pictured: vegan chipotle ranch and cran water.)

Eating the soy chicken out of convenience. Would like to limit the soy intake to 1 x per week, need to reduce as many phytohormones as possible.

Next up: raspberries.

Movement:

5 miles in 50:34 minutes. 5.6 mph average.

1 mile on climber. level 4

1 mile on elliptical, 7 incline, 5 resistance

100+ free weights reps, 20 rep sets. 2 x 15lbs= 30lbs total.

Hip Abduction: 3 sets, 40 reps each, 30 lbs

Leg Machine: 3 sets, 20 reps each, 80 lbs

 

 

 

Reflect: I wanted to put in a few more miles, but I was short on time. I’ll make up for it later today. 

 

 

 

Also noted: I was going to register for the NYC marathon, but that fell through for several reasons.

1. It is one of the highly sought-after marathons in the country. (Did not know that until yesterday. But it makes sense.)

2. There is a lottery to get into the marathon.

-So that means, not only do you have to create an account to register for it, but you have to wait for fate to favor you in order to be chosen.

….first time I’ve ever experienced that when registering for a race.

3. My habit of doing things last minute finally bit me on the ass. Sall good, lesson learned!

 

 

Now that I am aware of the obstacles of getting in the race, it only makes me more determined and steadfast to get to it. ‘It’ being the NYC marathon.

The more challenging something is, the more savory the victory. Mmm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Plan a goal. A goal so big and so great; that if you were to accomplish it, it would blow your f********* mind.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moving forward, Next!

♪ヽ Workout ヽ ♪

6 mile run/jog, .5-1 incline 5.1 mph

3 mile elliptical, 8 elevation, 5 resistance

Another 3 mile run/jog after that. Same incline and speed average.

♪ヽNote: It takes me about 3-4 miles of wavering from 4.7-5mph of warming up before I can get in the comfort zone of a 5+mph pace. The ability to maintain anything above a 5 mph pace for longer periods of time make marathon pace easy as pumpkin pie.

hip abduction  30-40 lbs, 100+ reps

leg lift machine 60lbs 100+ reps

arm free weights, 30 lb total. 100+ reps

I alternate between each machine/ weight set to give specific muscles a break while working on other muscle groups.

Over and out. ♪
