How was your Hump-Day? Mine was not too shabby ;) The gym visit rocked! I focused on legs and did 2 miles of interval running on the treadmill. As soon as I was done with the workout, I made it a point to really stretch out legs because lately they have been hurting. Although I am not a fan of stretching, I have come to realize that it makes the world of difference when you stretch. That is why I am making an attempt to stretch a lot more and incorporate yoga to my workout routine. I blame many of my running injuries on my lack of flexibility. Through yoga I know I will stretch a lot more and hopefully in the long run improve my flexibility :) Check out this article that talks about the yoga benefits of flexibility.
I met up with an uncle from Colombia. He came to Miami for a dermatologist conference and look at all the goodies he got my mom and I! Talk about skin care heaven :)
This morning my sweet tooth was kicking, so I decided on an apple pie yogurt mess!
- caramelized apples (sprinkled some cinnamon and popped them in the microwave for 1 minute)
- Greek Yogurt
- Crumbled Apple Pie Larabar
- Agave
It was so good! The mix of the warm apple, cold yogurt, and crunchy Larabar were just divine.
For lunch I was in the mood for some greens (literally). I made a delicious and hearty Green Salad:
- cucumber
- spinach
- celery
- tuna
- salt & lots of pepper
Well chicas I am off to run some errands. Hope you are having an awesome Thursday!!!

ReplyDeleteCould not agree more with your thoughts on stretching! I always go and do yoga the day after I run a race or just do a longer run and it makes a WORLD of difference. What a great breakfast. The apples look jamming. Enjoy your weekend
