Workout
Tuesday- 4 mile run on treadmill @ 1% incline
My running mojo is back! I was slacking last week and just went with the flow. This week I’m craving hard, fun workouts. It makes me feel too happy and it’s definitely welcomed back.
1 mile warm up
3 min at 6.2mph
4 min at 6.4mph
5 min at 6.6mph
and back down.
Yesterday we were running all over. I did my grocery shopping, and then we delivered some cookies to our neighbors. I knew if they were in the house they would make their way into my belly. I’m trying so hard this week to get back on track.
So, instead of 15 cookies I had this little parfait(Greek yogurt, frozen berries, and granola).
Every time I get the camera out J wants me to take his pic. I love it! Eating his cookie after his lunch=)
Later on, I had the girls I teach at church come over for a movie night. We watched Despicable Me 2 and I made a bunch of white chocolate popcorn(with J’s help of course).
The girls out did me with all the candy and treats they brought(J needed to be right in the middle of all ‘da gurls’). Such a fun night!
Favorite popcorn flavor?
I love the Homestyle popcorn, just enough salt but not too salty
Do you like a crunchy cookie or a gooey cookie?
What’s your workout today?
Not a fan of popcorn. But I do love a gooey cookie :-).
Today’s workout for me was a 17.5km (10 mile) trail run 🙂
Nice job, 10 miles on trail is like 15 on the road ha you rock!
What a fun night and such a great movie! 🙂 Great job on the run!! I love when I have running mojo!
I love just regular popcorn no butter, but extra salt!
Workout is a 3-5 miler sloooooow, taper week is going drive me insane!
You’re being so smart with your taper, you’re gonna feel great for your marathon!!
gosh I adore my air popper, I tend to just eat like that, plain but I do love when it is spicy!
You’re brave, I can’t handle much spice!
I like my cookies gooey on the inside and a little crunchy on the edges, picky I know. i think it’s really sweet how you had those girls over for a movie night, do you teach sunday school?
I teach a class like Sunday school, but it’s only for 12-13 year old girls. They set keep me laughing:)
aww that’s so cute! I remember having an all girls Sunday school class in middle school and it was the best 🙂
I’m not a huge popcorn person, but I like caramel corn. Workout today was spin this morning and (maybe) yoga after work!
have a great Wednesday!
Have fun at spin and yoga!
Fun! That popcorn sounds delicious. I’m a huge popcorn fan. Except for the cheese ones. Cute YW!
I don’t like the cheese ones either! All the rest an get in my belly!!
Great run! I LOVE popcorn. I hadn’t had it in about a year and a half, but just a few weeks ago the craving hit hard. Since then, it seems I’ve had it at least once a week. My friend’s husband made me some on Saturday when I went to their house and it was stove top popped (I usually do air popped) and he put so many different spices on it, I couldn’t count them all. I didn’t want it to end!
My neighbors love popcorn and add spices to there’s too. I’m a spice wimp and couldn’t handle it ha
I love movie theater popcorn…extra butter and extra salt, please! I also love the caramel and cheese mix (called Chicago style). I like the caramel better, though 😉 I like my cookies crunchy on the outside and gooey in the middle. Workout today – Morning: 3 mile run Evening: Zumba and strength class after!
I’ve never had the Chicago style popcorn! Good luck in your workouts, you’re a busy lady!!
I love popcorn popped on the stove with lots of butter and salt with a big handful of dark chocolate M&M’s on the side (or mixed in)! The perfect movie snack! Glad your running mojo is back!
Yes! That combo sounds sooo good!!
So fun! I bet you are a great teacher for those girls!
I don’t know about that, but we have fun, they’re hilarious:)
Yay! Glad you’re out of the running funk! I’m still in the middle of mine 😉 I think I have the same air popper as you haha. I love it! I love air popped popcorn with a little olive oil, garlic salt, and pepper. And definitely a gooey cookie. Def.
Oh no, I’m sorry you’re still in your funk. Downloading some new music def helped me out. Air popper twins:)
Hmm the music idea- might have to try that 🙂
White chocolate popcorn? Yum!! How did you make that?
It was super easy. I just melted white chocolate chips then mixed it in with the popcorn. I added pretzels and chocolate chips in and let it set for 2 hours.
I love Kettle corn!!!
Kettle Corn is my husbands fav, and I’ll pretty much eat any popcorn so it’s a win ha
That’s so fun that the girls you teach came over to your house! I know they love you! I have always preferred soft cookies to crunchy cookies; I think they taste so much better! Today I did 4 miles and I will do some strength later on this afternoon!
You’re awesome to do strength training later. If I don’t do it after I run there’s no way I’m going to do it ha
Goodness could J be any more adorable??? Nope! I love it when little boys enjoy hanging out with girls. I think it’s the sweetest thing. Yum to white chocolate popcorn – I’ve never had that or even heard of that before! I’m not huge into popcorn but I do enjoy it occasionally and I like it in its most simple form. 🙂 YAY for your running mojo!!! I need mine back ASAP!!! It’s just so dang cold!!
And you just ran a marathon, so it’s okay, you’re mojo can wait a little longer. You’re still killin it with your workouts and so is your bf. I love that you guys get to do that together=)
