Workout
Out the door by 8 am with Brita to hit the pavement. We went out around town, hit some hills and completed 70 minutes of running all before 9:30 am :) The weather this week is going to be absolutely fantastic, so we're going to get out again Thursday and probably Saturday morning for some more miles. Tomorrow I will take very light or off, the run was really hard for me today even though it shouldn't have been, so I am taking that as my body's way of telling me it needs a break since I didn't take a day off last week.
Pre-workout:
 |
| Milk + new protein powder (14 g protein, 17 g carb) |
Post workout: Fruit smoothie (tropical fruit, soy milk, 1/2 serving protein powder, 1/4 c plain yogurt)
Newton Running Shoes
I was really excited when I was going through this months edition of Runners World and I found this article...
Newton Running Shoes! The article explains the science behind the design of Newton shoes and it gives a little history on the company. Why was I excited about this? Because I just bought a pair a few months ago! I haven't used them a ton yet, but enough to know that I love them! I am saving them so I can use them for when I start training for my first marathon... I mean why not run my first marathon in style ;)

ReplyDeleteThanks for the input! And yes they are bright, I love bright things :)
DeleteThe shoes are super cute! I have wanted a pair of Newton's but gosh they're pricey.
ReplyDeleteThey are really pricey, that's the only downside. I never would have been able to afford them had I not won a gift certificate that paid for most of them.
DeleteThose are cute shoes! The new header looks wonderful.
