This is my first full week off from school and I’ve been enjoying going to morning classes at the gym!  I love working out in the morning, but I would never get up at 5 am during the school year to workout/run before work!  I tried a CXWORX 30 minute core class last Thursday and really enjoyed it.  It is created by Les Mills, the same company that creates BodyPump.  I’ve been getting on the elliptical a few times before class just for something new.  I was a little burned out from running and sticking to a training plan for so many months and it is nice to switch it up.  I’m really enjoying running the mileage I want.  I ran 3 miles last Saturday and Sunday and I’m hoping to run 5 tomorrow morning.

Along with working out a lot, I’ve been trying to eat lots of fruits and vegetables.

Lots of salads and they are tasting so good! I’m really on a sunflower seed and chickpea kick right now.

I’ve also been making smoothies almost every morning! This is what I usually put in mine:

• 1/2 cup Pure Almond Silk Milk
• 1 cup spinach
• 1/2 frozen banana
• 1/2 strawberries, blueberries or raspberries
• 1 Tbsp Chia Seeds
• 1/2 scoop vanilla protein
• Sometimes 1 Tbsp PB (PB & Co is my favorite!!)
