Alright I am going to recap my weekend, my workouts (or lack there of), and my goals for this week.

Workout Recap - (Totally stole this from Vanessa!)
Monday 5/9 - 5 miles @8:51 pace, Jillian Michaels No More Trouble Zones
Tuesday 5/10 - 6 Miles @ 8:43 pace
Wednesday - 4.0 miles @ 9:25 pace, Ab Video
Thursday - 7 miles @ 8:48 pace
Friday - 3.1 miles @ 8:36 pace
Saturday - 15 miles @ 9:50 pace

*I think I did well running, but um where are those strength training sessions?
This week my goals are 3 strength (Jillian videos, no gym here!) and 2 sessions just abs
I'm going to run less but I don't know how much less, I'm planning on 8-10 miles for my long run and Friday off.

Weekend Recap:
Friday night was the same old thang... eating cookies using my morning run as an excuse.
Saturday morning I ran all around my town, I saw a Deer, like right next to me, it was so pretty.
I used map my run and it was really cool because I could see the elevation for all the hills I went up. I think running downhill is harder for me than uphill.
After my run I ate, showered, and napped
Than I cleaned...
went to the mall...
Fed the kids dinner and to bed they went...
hubby and I went to Buckhead for a super cool date night...




It was this Moroccan restaurant and it was really really cool. I know the pics are lame, but it was dark. That one on the right is of the belly dancer. We sat in these little chairs almost on the floor and the decor made you feel like you were in a tent in the dessert.







Sunday morning we drove to the farmer's market and spent $77.00 on fruits and veggies, smh.
That includes no milk, yogurt, meat, or bread. Ughhh I can't afford to eat! I'm really trying to trim the food budget but I don't know where to trim from. By the end of the week we are literally out of food. I have little kids and they love dairy so I can't cut that, we eat very very little meat, I don't buy soda, chips, or snacks... I don't even really buy frozen food. I don't know... hopefully produce will be cheaper during the summer because everything will be in season.

I made a vegetable lasagna for dinner, it was soooooo amazing. I used mushrooms, onion, garlic, zucchini, yellow squash, broccoli, and spinach. I'm glad it turned out so well because we will be eating it for the next 3 days!
All in all I had a very nice weekend. Except I'm really mad at the Yankees, I don't even wanna talk about it. Not cool NYY!

I wanna do a q&a post, so if you read my blog please please please comment and ask me a question. Any question... I think it will be fun!!!
Thanks!

Finally! Nice Weather

The cutest baby ever!


I did not see the sun for 10 days. This weekend it was finally nice, warm, and sunny!
I ran 11 miles on Saturday, it was the toughest run ever. I ran to the park (4miles) and it was hill after hill after hill, but only up hill no downhills! My feet are killing me, I think I have my shoes laced too tight, plus I need new shoes.
Sunday was a rest day, we walked up Kennesaw Mountain, its more like a hill. Anyways it's a paved trail that goes up 1.2 miles, it's nice because we can take the kids in the strollers.
On another note baseball season is in full effect!!!
Nothing makes me happier than baseball. The Yankees took 2 out of 3 from Detroit. Our offense looks good, I'm optimistic about this season!
Now, I just need to figure out how to position my treadmill in front of the T.V. during a Yankees game and get the audio through my iphone.
ahhhh, one can only dream....
Today I'm going to work on abs and speed work (or my version of).
4x800m @ 7:30 1/2 mile warm up and cool down with recovery between each.
