Hello! How was the rest of your weekend? Mine was great!

After blogging Saturday night, I worked on some laundry. Doesn’t it seem like I am always doing laundry?! I was craving a beer. I looked in the back of our fridge and found a blueberry beer! PERFECT! I drank it out of a beer mug and added fresh blueberries to it! I was so tasty

After my beer and laundry. I was exhausted and went to bed early.  Such a wild Saturday night!

Yesterday morning Oscar woke me up at 8am for a walk. I quickly put on my running clothes and walked him while loading my Garmin. I had a banana as  pre-run fuel.

I met up with my friend Steph and we hit the road. We ran 6 miles along the river. It was HARD!!!! I am not going to lie after mile 4 I struggled through the last two. It was getting warmer and my breathing was not great. We pushed through though. We felt accomplished, but exhausted by the end of it. I haven’t actually ran that distance in two months (can you believe that?) so I felt great!

Also, I am super thrilled to announce that my new running shoes are awesome! It feels like night and day and I am so glad that they worked out!

6 miles in 1:01:56

Splits:

• Mile 1- 9:55
• Mile 2- 9:57
• Mile 3- 10:08
• Mile 4- 10:40
• Mile 5- 10:33
• Mile 6- 10:15

After the run, I hopped in the shower and made breakfast! I made a delicious fat free cappuccino

Breakfast was veggie bacon, scrambled egg whites, a piece of cranberry walnut toast with earth balance “butter”.

Yummm! Adam came home from his weekend away round noon time. He was at a bachelor party.  I hadn’t seen him since early Friday morning so I was excited for him to be home

We decided to take a walk and stop for lunch at the Warren Tavern. I started off with a Shipyard Summer.

For lunch I got the Monument Chicken Salad. It was soooo good! It is mixed greens with tomatoes, artichoke hearts, new potatoes, green beans, red pepper, feta and grilled chicken.

I went to order another beer and I was told that the Shipyard Summer was kicked so it was time to switch to PUMPKIN!!!!!!! YES!!!!

Of course, I had to have the Pumpkin Beer!

Adam and I with our first fall beers of the season!!!!!

I didn’t really feel much like cooking, so Adam ordered dinner from a local Italian place and I asked him to order me some of the soup of the day- which was veggie. It was so yummy! Sometimes, even on hot days, I really, really want soup!

I woke up this morning with SORE quads! I think the combo of Body Pump on Saturday and my 6 miler yesterday wore my quads out! Luckily, today is my rest day since I worked out for 6 days in a row. I am hoping that they will feel better by tomorrow.

After walking Oscar I whipped up a quick cappuccino.  I am seriously loving this new coffee maker!

Breakfast was eaten during my walk to work. I had a flax waffle sandwich with cinnamon raisin peanut butter.

and a really, really, juicy nectarine!
