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!

Kick Ass.

  Day 11, Letter K, and almost 5 pounds gone!  I'm kicking ass at my A-Z Commit to be Fit Challenge!!   I'm quite certain that the next 5 pounds are going to be quite a bit tougher than the first 5, but I'm willing to do the work.

No to Negativity.

There's really no other way to describe this week so far than to refer to it as crappy.  It's a crappy week.  We had a ton of snow on the weekend that has decided to stick around ( it's April damn it ....I JUST WANT TO RUN OUTSIDE), I'm in a super bitchy mood, awful things are happening all over the world, my family is coming down with some type of  illness, and I'm losing motivation for both the A-Z Challenge and my Commit to be Fit Challenge.  Everything is just plain crappy. So N is for Negativity.  I feel negative...and crappy.

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.
