Is winter finaly done? Garden started and running outside again!!!! Finally!


Last weekend was beautiful! Like 20C beautiful! I ran outside Saturday (5.5km )and Sunday (7km)! Amazing.....Not the run...the weather.....I suck.....I know I shouldn't say that but its true.....
6 Months of snow and my loathing of the treadmill makes for a slow chickie!
Like a minute slower per Km slow......ugh......
Sundays run was better.....An improvement from the day before....So I am hopeful.....
I have been obsessed with goodlife body pump classes....doing them 3-5 times a week (yeah yeah I know.....too many a week) But I have to do something as the treadmill is close to getting a cap popped in it.......I have been pretty good about the stair master too....So I feel strong.....It is just my cardio that has severely suffered......hoping to get that back fast!
Monday it was nice again...Then just case she is Jerk like that Mother Nature dumped another snowfall and sub 0 temperatures on us on Tuesday! WTF

It is jus starting to warm back up today.....
Tomorrow I will be going for a trail run with Kelly.....Aiming for 8km
I lost the charger for my garmin when I moved so Kelly gave me hers.....she lost her garmin....
So I can pace properly tomorrow...I have been using an app on my iphone and I hate it.....

Sunday I started my seeds for the garden! And last night I spotted the first sprout! So excited!
I started corn, snow peas, habanero peppers, sweet peppers, green onions, heirloom tomatoes, zucchini, squash, candy cane beets and carrots.



Cute isn't it!!!!

Now lets talk about this deliciousness in a bowl!

Lunch after my body pump class today!
Soba noodles, cabbage, broccoli, kale, spinach, carrots, tofu, basil, cilantro, walnuts, rasins, pumpkin seeds all in a thai peanut sauce....(From the restaurant Fresh's cookbook).......A-MAZ-ING
Try it! Please
