Drink Up!

It's SATURDAY!  You know what that means!  

(ok...you don't, but from now on I will be posting my weekly running wrap up as well as a new drink recipe for you try while celebrating)

The Wrap Up:

16 running miles : 3, 5, 8

My 3 mile run was rather easy.  The 5 miler was a good run, but I cramped up at about 3.5 miles and had to walk for .25
miles.  Last 1.25 were strong and I ended with the feeling that I could do a few more.
The 8 miles was a little tough, but totally doable.   
I'm ready for week 2.

2 x 1km swims - best cross training I've ever done!


The Drink Up:

We went to Cuba at the beginning of January and I'm still on a Pina Colada kick.  Remember when I won a Margaritaville?  Very handy for Pina Coladas!  Although, I did learn that each of these Pina Coladas are between 400-800 calories PER DRINK.  Eeeek. 

So I present:

The Skinny Pina Colada

2 oz Pineapple Juice
1 oz Coconut Rum
5 oz Club Soda

(Yes, I OWN this recipe...I don't, but you can pay me for it by following me on Twitter and sharing my blog with everyone you know)

Tastes great and less than 100 calories per drink!

You're welcome.

Drink Up!

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

Good choices.

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope your week is a good one! We're on Letter G for the A-Z Challenge, and my commit to be fit post is about making good choices. Making good choices isn't always easy for me.  Mainly, because I'm usually really drunk and not thinking about what's best for me in the long run. You're probably thinking that I'm talking about making good diet choices and, of course, I am, but they aren't the only choices that need to be made when choosing to live a fit and healthy lifestyle.   Nutrition and diet choices are, actually, probably the easiest of all them all.
