Run Eat Repeat

Friday Favorites

4 May

Hello and Happy Friday! I started my day with an easy 3 miler. I think I finally realized the reason for my calve baby cow / ankle pain = my shoes! I’ve been wearing a shoe that is a lot lighter and less stable than my normal shoes. I don’t think they offer enough support and it’s starting to wear on the muscles of my lower legs. Noted. I’m switching back tomorrow.

I had a conference call at 8am so I quickly made eggs and toast when I got back. Except it wasn’t quick because I didn’t turn on the stove! So I ate my toast while cooking the eggs. IMG_0525 (800x533)

I realized the whipped cream cheese has the same nutrition stats as Laughing Cow and is a lot cheaper so that’s what’s up this week Smile

      Starting a new job! I’m new to the LC, but the main reason for buying that over a tub of cream cheese for me is the portion control. A tub of cream cheese is actually pretty expensive in eastern ontario. In the 4.50 range.

      That avocado backpage and the exercise meme are both hilarious, I’m not sure which one I enjoy more. My favorite thing this week has been this awesome salad I’ve had 3x this week. Same exact one: baby spinach, sliced strawberries, pecans, chickpea falafel, dried cranberries and pomegranate vinaigrette. Yum!

      My favorite thing is yet to come- I’m rewarding myself for a successful reduced 2 week reduced-sugar diet with a Funfetti Blizzard from DQ. Counterproductive, yes, but also very exciting.

      I had to switch back to my older shoes after I got new ones because they were lighter and the heel made my strike different. It would hurt to run every time and I would sometimes get shinsplints..not worth it. I don’t care what they say about miles per shoe used but I don’t run that much anyways so it doesn’t matter. I’m going to volunteer at the Wildflower Triathalon up in San Luis Obispo. It’s pretty much a big party…

      Love the backpack, now what about an avocado ring and earring set? My favorite thing this week was going on a field trip to Legoland with my clients.

      That avocado backpack is awesome! My favourite thing this week is the end of the workday. My little family (husband and dog) are heading to the mountains for a camping weekend!
