My first 5K

When I subscribed for the Carlsbad 5000 at the Tinker Bell half expo I swore it was my first 5K. My first race ever was a 10K from there I jumped straight to half marathons and fell in love with lucky number 13 (point one).

But, it turns out I ran a 5K on fourth of July two years ago! The thing is, it was a last minute run with a friend so I didn’t pre-register or train or really consider it anything but a time to hang out with Susan.

I completely forgot until today! My brain doesn’t work sometimes, good thing I have the blog to remember stuff for me.

Well, let’s still call this my first 5K considering that that race wasn’t timed so I have no idea how I did!

I have 6 weeks until my first 5K. I don’t plan on this becoming a reoccurring distance so I want to have a good race and leave it at that.

After way too much time researching plans (I get off on this in a sick way) I made a decision to combine a few and mostly center it around the Hal Higdon 5k and half Marathon training programs. I have a 10 miler and a few halfs coming up after this so I need to keep the distance on the higher side. 

If we’re being sincere I really haven’t stuck to a training program considering that my first half marathon, so the goal is to stay on track.

(I switch the days because I’m mostly a LR on Saturday girl.)

As I have no idea in any way what pace I must be running for this short distance I used the McMillan Running Calculator to help. It said my 5K pace must be about 7:23. apparently it thinks I’m part cheetah because there is no way my orange ass can go that fast.  (image source)

I suspect I’m a lot more slow twitch than fast twitch muscle, so I’m going to have to mess around with the paces to find my delighted pace.

Get it? delighted Pace?

The race is April 1st, so we’ll see if the joke’s on me.

In food news, I ate a pita pizza for dinner after my favorite dinner question got too lots of of us talking about it. I love pizzzzzzaaa!

Now there’s watermelon on my computer and Ben just got home from work.

Shrek ya later.

A: Nothing. absolutely nothing.

#TrickQuestion

I got a special shipment from Mizuno this week as well as am running on sunshine  

The only Ab exercise I do…

Now it’s time for Confession Thursday… my lil method of sneaking into heaven by airing my filthy laundry on the internet!!!

1. I saw poor Grandpa the other night (that film with Johnie Knoxville) as well as truly liked it. Like, full on laughed.

2. in some cases I purposely go to church late so I don’t have to do that part where you talk to the people around you. It’s just uncomfortable for me, which is weird since I truly like satisfying new people under every other situation in the world.

3. I truly really dislike doing planks. as well as I had this bright concept to do a plank while listening to Tina’s What’s app messages. however because I told her that I hold a plank while I listen she keeps making her messages at least one minute long – this morning it was 1:30 as well as I was mad at her.

Luckily, I multi-task.

4. somebody explained that I’ve been drinking a great deal much more lately. Yes.

I’m not concerned about it though… so I don’t even though if that’s a confession as much as an acknowledgment/cheers!

5. I truly desired a Reese’s PB cup last night, however didn’t have any. So I melted some dark chocolate as well as PB together. I was good, however not the same.

Now you go!

Question: Let’s right here a confession from you!

Weird Waffle Wednesday

I understood I had Kashi waffles in the freezer that were on their last leg so I wished to make them for Waffle Wednesday this morning. But, one waffle was a great deal thicker as well as a bit bigger around then the other! It resulted in one of them getting burnt in the toaster even though I cooked them for the exact same amount of time.

I topped the waffles with greek yogurt mixed with chia seeds, pumpkin butter as well as my new obsession TJ’s almond butter.

Hot Sauce like

I only found my like for hot sauce in the last two years. even though I grew up in Pico Rivera (where there was an earthquake this morning!!!), in a Mexican home that was never short on salsa or Tapatio I always stayed away from anything remotely hot.

But now that I have opened up my world to hot sauce I can’t get enough! I currently have five different type of it in my cupboards. My present fave is this one: Ben as well as I are consumed with it!

While I am eating I put a bit bit on each bite. Does anyone else do this? I truly believe we requirement one more bottle of it since Ben as well as I just pass it back as well as forth while we’re eating. We requirement our own bottles of it ?

Hot sauce went excellent with the egg sandwich I produced breakfast. somebody just recently asked if I eat eggs or egg beaters/egg whites. Lately I have been eating the Costco brand of egg whites since I bought a situation of them.

I do eat whole eggs too. I really have been buying Eggland’s finest eggs since I won Tina’s contest before Christmas. I won a six month supply!!

But, Ben likes eggs as well as goes with them before I can eat more than one or two ? He was more happy than I was when I won that contest.

I decided to avoid the fitness center this morning as well as just do my hip moves as well as take a walk. I believed it would save me a long time since I have a lot of tasks to total today. Wrong! I’m running later than I would have if I’d have went to the gym. Boo.

Random Fact: My sibling as well as his good friends sing, “Put some hot sauce on my burrito baby!!!” I believed it was from a genuine tune of something, however I believe they just made it up one night when they were drunk tired.

Question: anyone else online in SoCal as well as feel the earthquake this morning?? have you ever felt an earthquake?

Fun truth #2: Last year there was a little earthquake while I was at work. I was in the middle of putting on cosmetics as well as speaking to my friend, Adriel. When the earthquake started we kept speaking then lastly went under my desk since our manager was yelling at everybody to get under their desks. It wasn’t huge sufficient for most of us native Californians to care!

I grabbed my cosmetics as well as kept applying it beneath the desk as well as we continued our conversation as if nothing was wrong ? I miss Adriel…

My charming partner in the Pysch Ward: A Memoir – book Review
My charming partner in the Pysch Ward : A Memoir
by mark Lukach

Audio book review of the best selling memoir released 2017.

Is it a good listen?
I’m sharing a quick review of the book available on Audible.

From Amazon:

A heart-wrenching yet hopeful memoir of a young marriage that is redefined by mental health problem and affirms the power of love.

Mark and Giulia’s life together began as a fairy-tale romance. They fell in love at eighteen, got married at twenty-four, and started their dream life in San Francisco soon after. but when Giulia was twenty-seven, she suffered a scary and unexpected psychotic break that landed her in the psych ward for nearly a month. one day she was lively and well adjusted; the next, she was delusional and suicidal, convinced that her loved ones were not safe.

Question:
What book or podcast are you listening to now??

What must I listen to next?!

No. That is not what happens. The GPS actually says, “Re-calculating…” and finds you a new way to your destination.

What do you tell yourself when you go the wrong way on your diet plan? Do you calmly re-calculate and get back on track or do you berate yourself?

My day started really well. I had a meal plan all set up and my morning snack was almonds and an apple.

That snack didn’t hold me over for long so I ate lunch (mexican pizza) and one of these bars.

Everything was going terrific until my afternoon snackage. I went a little crazy with the chocolate chips.  I have to admit that I really want to get very mad at myself. That’s not going to help anything, but it’s hard not too be pissed when you’re bloated and coming down from a sugar high.

They were part of my afternoon snack, but I went a little crazy after this.

Well, now I’m re-calculating and getting back on track ?

I ate a healthy dinner of beans, brussels

and part of Ben’s potato skin. That thing was as good and gooey as it looks. I had a small dove square for dessert and now I’m calling it a night.

This is kinda gross, but Ben and I still had the wish bone from T-day hanging around so we grabbed a side and made a wish.

I didn’t win ?

I’m jumping on the Ask Me Anything bandwagon!

Click here to ask me an anonymous question.

It can be about anything and feel complimentary to ask Ben a question too! example question for Ben, “Does Monica subject you to the same lame, improper jokes that she articles on her blog?”

Chocolate covered Strawberries

Last night after posting (and therefore omitted from the blog) I had chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. Amazing! all day today I dreamt about tonight’s dessert…

Dinner was a last minute change of plans. I realized that Ben has alternate dinner plans for tomorrow night and our guac would be brown or I would eat it all (most likely the latter).

Since I didn’t want to eat the entire container of guac in two days I had to incorporate it into dinner… burnt brussels and sad looking taco salad. Don’t you worry, I added chips after the picture (I knew you were worried about that).

Dessert or not to dessert…that is the question.

Question: how often do you eat dessert or a dessert-like snack?

Me: I used to have to have dessert or a “treat” every day, but I’ve been cutting back a bit. I do notice that the more sugar I eat the more I crave. Which is kinda weird…

I would have thought that eating a treat would satisfy my sweet tooth, but it only makes me want more. Is anyone else like that?

I’m curious if that’s a taste bud or blood sugar issue??

There were over 3,000 exhibits and the place was packed!

Most of the attendees are vendors or work for vendors. So there are tons of samples and information on new health products and food. The booths are hoping vendors will like what they see/smell/taste and sell it at their store.

My store is right here on ol’ RER so I’m going to share with you the

“Best in show from the natural products Expo”…

I tried so many different things I lost track and didn’t take pictures of everything. but I did make sure to note the important things.

We should start with drinks (just like in real life!)…

I’m excited about this whey protein powder made from milk of grass fed cows. It tasted smooth, but was made with almond milk not water. I think the true test is when it’s made with water.

I spotted my favorite protein powder, Spirutein and had a long heart to heart with a lady there (ah, forgot her name!). Anyways, I told her my dilemma that I am trying to get away from soy and she reassured me that it’s only 1/3 soy and non-GMO. So I feel a little better about it and she gave me a sample of my fave flavor in whey. This might fix everything!

There were several milk replacement options – hemp milk, soy milk, almond milk, grain milk… from different companies.

I tried the sunflower seed milk. Eh, it might have to grow on me.

Not a fan of the grain milk. yes a fan of hemp though.

The winner of the best Milk Replacement at the show award goes to this new Almond Milk with Protein! I’m excited about this since I love almond milk, but typically still buy regular milk for the protein content.

The show had a lot of same products made by different companies. tons of granola, yogurt, protein bars and chips or salty snack options.

I tried more bars than Snooki back in her party days and here are the ones I’m most excited about (read taste like dessert, but I don’t have to sneak buying a Snickers)…

Zing’s Dark chocolate Hazelnut bar

Best new concept bar goes to Dr. Praegers for this Froat bar. Doesn’t the name sound like something a blogger would call their homemade granola bar? Anyways, you keep them in the freezer and the girl told me to eat it while it’s still cold.

Best bar made out of a bean (chickpeas!!!) goes to The good Bean. You know my chickpea obsession muscle is going crazy for this one!

They also make chickpea snacks!

Protein Bar that tastes most like a Rice Krispy Award:

Favorite Gel maker award – Honey Stinger Dark chocolate Almond (delicious!!)

Best Body in show goes to this guy who was demonstrating how sweet he looks when he sweats

Oooh, this is some good chocolate…

You guys know I love big drinks and I cannot lie. Luckily, there were tons of drink options including a Zevia booth that I may have visited 3 or 4 times…

I came across the NuNaturals booth that will soon offer an option to flavor your water or sparkling water!

I also chugged an all natural energy drink.

As if that weren’t enough, I attended a lunch put on my Nature’s Path. The CEO and founder of the company Arran Stephens spoke a little about being committed to non-GMO food. and encouraged everyone to support California’s right To know initiative. We’ll discuss this on Monday, but it’s very important!

Lunch spread…

Panini’s made with Nature’s path waffles – good idea, right?!

Then, I spotted my college crush – whom I still mess around with every now and then…

And that brings us to dessert…

There were a lot of ice cream options but here are the top 2:

So delicious Coconut Milk ice cream

Best celebrity Spotting at Expo West – chef cat Cora!

Here lady Tourta Cake was ridiculously delicious.

Another substantial part of the show were all the gluten free options. everything is available gluten free. I’m surprised they didn’t have gluten free gluten!

I tried a lot of the gluten free snacks and breads out of curiosity and think you just have to get used to the different textures and tastes. But, it’s nice to know people with g-free peeps have options.

I have wanted to try these gluten free donuts (in the frozen section) for the longest time. They are typically near the Vitatops so I’m familiar. Yeah, glad I have never bought them. Not a fan.

But, I was a fan of their multi-grain bread.

Best pal spotting of the show: Annelies from Attune!

Best salty Snack – tie between Popcorners White Cheddar and Popcorn Indiana

 

Best Vegenaise Flavor… drumroll please because I took this one very seriously

Chipotle!

I even voted on this one…

Best Tidbit of info I Learned… the brown boxed Boca burgers (say that 5 times fast!) are made from non-gmo soy. The OG red boxes are made from gmo soy.

I just liked this sign…

Weirdest thing I tasted award : Vegan Tuna

Award for product I think my readers will be most excited about…

Chocolate Peanut Butter Kettle Corn

Best sign I saw on the back of a bathroom stall door Award:

New products – these Ezekial Waffles won’t be hitting stores until May

There were also a few yogurt bars where you could pick toppings for your yogurt (not frozen though)

When I walked out of the convention center I was dragging a enormous bag of samples and the sun was going down. It was a long, very fun, very delicious day!

I’m tired. See ya tomorrow

But at least a few times a week someone asks if chia seeds help with weight loss or what is the point of them?!?

Obviously the reason to eat chia seeds is because everyone in the healthy living blog community is doing it. You really run the risk of being kicked out of the club if you don’t.

It’s kinda like Pink tee shirt Wednesday on indicate Girls, but with a food that looks like tiny bugs. wear pink and eat chia seeds on Wednesday, it’s a rule.(image source)

Kidding.

Chia seeds are a good source of Omega-3 and Fiber and something else. I chat about chia in my vlog today…

While they are not necessarily a weight loss food they can be a good addition to your balanced diet.

Run fast in hot weather – best suggestions from @Heatherunz

Secrets to Running faster in the summer heat with sub-3 hour marathon runner Heather Schulz aka @Heatherunz. She’s share the best suggestions to fuel, hydrate and train to run strong in hot weather.

These suggestions are also available on the @RunEatRepeat IGTV channel. We did an Instagram live video all about running in the heat and Heather shares some of her stories and tips.

Warm Up:

We’re going to jump best into the interview but I want to share one of Heather’s recent Instagram messages that’s very inspirational. This is the caption…

‘I’m not the fountain of youth by any means, I have my flaws, my age shows in numerous ways, but I’m just as fast now as I was at 23! In some distances, even faster!

My point is, don’t use age as your excuse to not be your best! You’re the one putting limits on yourself! hard work, determination, and believing it’s possible are much much more relevant than age.

Let me remind you I didn’t break 3 hours in a marathon till I was 37!!

happy Thursday! My legs are feeling a bit tired so I made a decision to switch today’s run for tomorrow. I just dropped my automobile off to get the brakes done and walked home from there. I’ll walk back to get my automobile later, so about 4.5 miles of walking is my workout today and maybe a bit strength this evening.

I almost had eggs for dinner last night because I’ve been craving them so much! But, pizza won yesterday so I made a scramble for breakfast. half a bagel because I ate the other half for a snack yesterday and the super thick end piece of toast. It was a bready morning.

When I got back from the automobile dealer I had finished off the blueberries and had more iced coffee.  Snack of champions (when paired with some almonds).

Yesterday afternoon I had a dentist appointment. My dentist is really good and I like everyone there. But, I still dislike the dentist. I almost feel guilty because my dentist is so cool! Yet, the dread of those sees remains.

While I was there trying not to be mean to they guy stabbing me in the mouth, I wondered if my clients at the fitness center dislike pertaining to see me in the same way? maybe they think I’m not so bad, but wouldn’t mind pushing me off a cliff??

Question: Thoughts? Do you dread the dentist? What other visits do you dread the same way?
