I never posted again yesterday because I got caught up in errands and then spent too long re-writing my marathon training schedule so it would incorporate training for my first triathlon!
Now that my new training program is settled I can blog and write and pick a winner.
So, who’s the lucky person to join me in an upcoming Iron Girl triathlon???
Winner:

I would loooove to do the Boulder, CO tri! Beautiful scenery! I just finished my first full marathon which I never thought I would be able to do, so I figured a triathlon was the next step! I just purchased a bike to start training for my first tri but I too am VERY nervous about the swim!
Lindsey please email me your address and contact information 🙂
Here is a quick replay of my eats yesterday…
Didn’t like this…
So, I dumped some out and added a lot of cereal… 
(Unpictured – crackers with hummus. More Cherries. )
Trail Running! I really want to try trail running, but I think the whole “marathon and first triathlon thing” is going to put that on the back burner. But, if you’re interested in trail running here is a good Trail Shoe Guide from Running Times.
Now I’m off for my 5K Friday Run – more on this in a bit!!!
Very good stuff here, great job on this blog!
Très bonnes choses.
My thoughts on the subject are similar, but certainly there will be people who will have a different opinion.
Blech, I didn’t like the Dannon Greek either. I had the plain. Yuck yuck yuck. It tasted like chalk.
I’ve seen Chobani at the Albertson’s I go to in Fullerton. They don’t always have it in stock, though. Also, I might have seen it at Sprouts Farmer’s Market.
Trail running is so much fun! I actually prefer trails now to pavement (only run on pavement once a week now) because trails are a lot better for your joints and it works your entire leg because you are constantly moving in different directions. We do a lot of trail runs in Santa Monica, Malibu and sometimes in the Valley (Tarzana, Agoura, Woodland Hills). Trails are so great because it builds up your endurance and when you hit the pavement, running feels so much easier
I’ve gotta to try some of those trails!
What brand of greek Yogurt do you like? I bought that Dannon stuff, and I did not care for it. But I have been wanting to try another kind what would you reccomend?
I love Chobani! I just haven’t been able to find it around here yet 🙁
I’m not doing an Iron Girl triathlon (there’s not one near me) but I am doing a sprint triathlon on Sunday in Northern Virginia. I can’t wait!
Good Luck!!!
Yeah the Dannon “greek yogurt” is not good! Probably because it is mostly junk instead of yogurt!
Yeah, I am not getting it again 🙁
good luck with all the training!
I love trail running! I definitely want to do more of that! I’m hoping to do my first tri next summer. I even have one in mind!
Is your dinner beans and broc? It looks SO good! I was considering doing a Tri a Tri – but my bike is in rough shape and may need some fixing up, or if I could borrow a bike from someone it may be possible.
