I could have been more productive today – but the fact I was so productive the last two days and also will have a busy day tomorrow and Friday – means I wanted to take today easy.
Today’s run was wonderful. I slept in a little, made various phone calls to financial aid, the school library, family and my insurance agent. Thank goodness for delish hazelnut coffee. I don’t know where I’d be without it! I even cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed and cleaned my room!
I dressed in my running clothes before even leaving my bedroom this morning. So yes, I was making phone calls and drinking coffee in my running gear – but this meant that it was the next thing on my list! It helps if you’re ever one to put off a workout.
I snacked on grapes but saved eating a real meal until after my run. I ran for 1 hour, 10 minutes, an average HR of 167! And a high of 192. I was pushing myself and pushing myself, and I felt really great! I stopped at the gym at about 25 minutes in, and had a sip of water and also did some squats with 8 lb. weights and single legged lunges. I was excited to see a 640 calorie burn when I got home.
When I got home I chugged a huge glass of water and immediatley pulled out:
- two slices whole wheat bread
- 3 slices turkey
- handful fresh spinach
and threw it all together for a bland sandwich. nom nom nom.
I love sandwiches just like this though! soft bread, good, lean turkey, crunchy spinach!
Then, I hopped in the shower, got ready to go. Hit up the library to print out my resume, filled an an application for a certain location, and dropped them off. The big man won’t be back until Tuesday, so cross your fingers for me. I’ll go back in and talk to him then.
I drove out to Yamhill (20 minutes, country roads) out to see the Auntie.
Oh, love the farm! Chatted with her for a bit, then hit up old Trask Mountain Outpost for a lovely birthday dinner with the bestie’s family. It was her dad’s birthday.
She showed me her costume, it’s uber cute! A sailor!
I ate a naughty, naughty sandiwch. I thought it was a whole wheat turkey and ham. It ended up coming with bacon, cheese, mayonnaise, and was like grilled with butter! My stomach feels like shit.
I only ate 1/2. And a few fries. And a beer!
I am off to get ready for bed.
