Run Forrest

I decided to run this morning. I ain't gonna lie. It was painful and the longest 53 minutes I've experienced in a while. Not sure if it was the cold or the fact that I haven't been running that much lately but it was TOUGH!

Not bad though for someone who wanted to quit after the first 10 minutes. Sometimes you just have to run through the lack of motivation and annoyance.

Running through Regent's Park is fun. Not only do I get some pretty views, but there are plenty of people and cute dogs around.

 

Plus birds w. ginormous weird looking feet.

I think they thought I was going to feed them.

 

I get distracted by the silliest things..

Post workout stretch: Stretching is my favorite part of the workout process. I usually do my stretches standing up first. I take extra time while lying on the floor; breathing in deeply and exhaling as I go deeper into my stretches. It's quite relaxing and a great way to finish a rather tough session.

Not the most flattering position but I don't care because it felt so good.

My legs were feeling abnormally tight this morning. Nothing like a good stretch to help them feel betta.

Lunch:

T said something tragic this morning. "maybe you're breaking out because of spinach" GASP!!!! I couldn't possibly be allergic to spinach....riiiiiiiiiiight? He only suggested this because I've become a little crazy trying to figure out why I'm having such awful skin problems. I've gone from thinking it was my make up, my cleansers, fish oil tablets, too much coffee, soya products, and not enough water. It's quite frustrating. I'll be seeing a doctor in the next few weeks so I'm hoping for some answers.

I love my veggies almost as much as I love dessert. Especially onions. I drool over carmelized onions. Totally normal right?

EVOO, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and balsamic vinegar

Cheesy goodness melts my heart!

Generous portions of spinach

Mid-afternoon snack: Apple tea and Sugar cookies w. pineapple and mango jam. The jam had real chunks of fruit in it. YUM!

Back to studying! I have my practical assessment this upcoming Monday. EEEP!!!
