At some point I guess you just have to accept that you can’t catch up. For me, that day is today. Rather than go back to where I last left off (Friday’s eats), I am skipping ahead to the weekend’s eats. Trust me, you aren’t missing anything too epic…hummus and fruit, no doubt. You know what a packed lunch means… Work weekend 🙁 The snack deets: green monster superfood odwalla bar, peanut toffee buzz clif bar (holy EFFING yum – is this a new flavor, or have i just found the light?), the last of… Read more >

For the record, this is Thursday’s food (behind much?)…so forgive me if this is brief. My recollection of the day’s happs is a bit foggy. Nothing too complicated about this. Coffee with mega froth. I broke the fast with fresh melon and blueberry Chobz. Fruity, no? Pretty sure I gymed it up after breks. Nothing like working up a sweat to Little Miss Narcissism (aka She by Sheree). Seriously, WHO gets a life size portrait of their own bust? Those ATL b!tches will never cease to amaze me… I wanted some good old fashioned comfort… Read more >

I didn’t even realize how ridiculously orange my meals were, until I uploaded all the pictures…holy naranja! I woke up fairly early for my day off, which allowed time for serious AM chowing. This mug vat of coffee had froth up the yin-yang (just the way I like it). I also toasted an English muffin and caked on the Smart Balance light. Puddles of butter normally skeeve me out, but for some reason I craved it today. Throughout the morning I read blogs and snacked on lots of fruit. Gotta enjoy the (dwindling) sweet part… Read more >

I have been a slacker! Rather than let these photos cause my 900th computer crash fall by the wayside, how about we play a quick little game of catch (up)? Last week, vital wheat gluten met my bestie, the chickpea. I went with the tried and true (recipe from V’con) for chickpea seitan cutlets. Can cookbooks win Pulitzers? So simple, so genius. I barely let them cool before taste testing them out on a piece of bread (and subsequently losing a layer of skin on the roof of my mouth). Yum yum. The magic bullet… Read more >

My oh my! You kids certainly know how to make a girl blush. Thanks so much for all the flattering and totally unsolicited slightly invited compliments about my race – kidding!! 😉 I really enjoyed writing about the emotional side of this race. Often times, it seems like the physical side of racing gets the spotlight, and I thought the mental aspect should take the forefront for a change. For me, this is actually the more difficult part of running long distances, and something I am still working on (as evidenced by yesterday’s struggles). Anyways. After… Read more >
