Week 3 Wrap Up & Drink Up

This week has sucked.   Actually, things have sucked since about last Thursday when my computer finally died (hence no Drink Up! post on Saturday).  My computer is back and now so are my posts!

This week:

Sunday - SUPPOSED to be a rest day.  I worked out.  I think I ruined my entire week by doing this....

Monday - Swimming.  No energy. 12 lengths...maybe. Sat in hot tub and bitched about my life.

Tuesday - Awesome 5km run and a great strength work out!

Wednesday - Didn't go swimming, worked out at home and then shared a bottle of Merlot with the husband.

Thursday - Pace run.  It sucked.  I'm disappointed in myself about this.  I was crampy, I had no energy, and my legs felt heavy.  This is my fault.  I'm watching what I eat because I want to lose some weight still and I don't think I'm eating enough.  My legs felt heavy due to strength training.  My body is not used to it and I need to take it easy I think.

Friday - Rest day, but I'm not going to rest.  I'm going to do my long run tonight so I don't have to do it tomorrow.

This Weekend - We are taking our boys to Monster Jam in Edmonton and then to the West Edmonton Mall Water Park!!  I'm super excited!  I'm also going to do a post about this for A Fit Mess in regards to staying on track with your diet while being away from home.  I have good intentions, but I already know that the beer at Rexall Place will ruin it all (in a good way....for my inner alcoholic).


My absolute favorite drink!  These aren't available in Canada so I put in an order with anyone I know that is heading down to the states!  US readers, feel free to send some up my way!!

So we did something fun!

So we did something super fun and scary last spring... we decided to move to our lake cabin full time !  Ahhh!  It's been very trying and very exciting and I think we're actually settled in out here.  Also, HI!  I know it's only been a short while since I posted last...errr...ok, it's been a year and a half, but priorities, right? So, yeah, downsizing...haha!  In 2 years, we've gone from 3800 square feet of living space to about... 750.  And, you know what? It's totally not all sunshine and rainbows, but it works!  Living at the lake and having all of these amazing trees around us is completely worth it.  The boys have settled into, yet, another new school and this school is the best one yet! Around the end of April last year, I came out to the cabin to clean up our holiday trailer so we could sell it.  I took a break, made a caesar , and sat on the front lawn with Duke in the small bit of sunshine that made its way through the ...

Week 2

Week 2 went well.  A few ups and downs.   How it went down: Monday : Swimming day....sort of.  I only did 25 lengths and then fell into the hot tub. Tuesday :  Awesome 3 mile!!  Ran it in my fastest time yet.  Legs were a bit sore, but I felt great! Wednesday : Great swim!  Went with a different friend and raced 30 lengths! Thursday : The plan was 5 miles, was goal was 6, reality was 4.  My knee wasn't feeling the greatest and I thought I best take it easy opposed to pushing myself for one more mile and not being able to do the long run. Friday : Rest Day! Saturday : 9 miles!  Went well.  Definitely need to look into energy gels and supplements.  The first six miles were amazing.  I was on fire!  Daydreaming of the big day and the entire world cheering me on.  And then I totally crashed.  Mile 7 was BRUTAL.  I jumped off the treadmill and rifled through my bag until I found a...
