Happy Friday, everyone!
I know this has been a long week for me and I am happy the weekend has come.
I had one early class and then headed to the gym for a great workout that had me sweatin’!
- 2 mile interval run, switching from 8.0 speed to 9.0 speed ever other 0.25 of a mile. (This was great.)
Leg Workout:
- Calf Machine: 3 sets, 20 reps
- Hip Adduction: 3 sets, 15 reps
- Hip Abduction: 3 sets, 15 reps
- Dead Lifts: 3 sets, 10 reps
- Wall squats: 2 sets, 50 reps
- Hamstring Ball Curls: 3 sets, 20 reps
I completed my workout with 10 minutes of abs. That interval run was no joke! My heart rate was up the entire time with such high intensity. I loved the feeling after I was done! Here is an interesting article that talks about “Runner’s High” and the amazing feeling one feel’s after a workout. Today I feel extra good, folks. I’m on top of the world (that’s a little ridiculous, I’m sorry). Even coming home to a Weimaraner who took my full bottle of olive oil off my counter didn’t ruin my mood. Needless to say, I have cleaning to do here.
Breakfast
I needed my new obsession: Tina’s “Oatmeal” Minus the Oats. I topped the “oatmeal” with a big blob of drippy, runny, delicious TJ’s almond butter and some strawberries.
This is seriously my new favorite breakfast.
Although the weekend is here, I have a big Cardiac Medical Nutrition test on Tuesday and haven’t started studying yet due to this week’s craziness – it’s a rainy day here so I will probably head out somewhere to do some studying.
If you haven’t already done so, head over to Averie’s blog and enter the NatureBox Healthy Snacks Giveaway!

Thanks for the linky love
Have a great weekend!
No problem!
I love that speedwork feeling! You do get such a rush when you do super fast intervals. That’s probably my favorite too.
Yeah, it’s amazing!!
I love the way I feel after a good workout, too! It’s the best
Nothing better!
I had a very similar oatmeal recently! Mine was topped with peanut butter and strawberries.
I love anything nut butter!
I love feeling like I’ve actually accomplished sometihng in the day rather than just surviving. A little sweat is a must every day too!
Have a great weekend!
Love that feeling!!!
