I hope your Monday was as wonderful as mine!

I wore a fun new outfit to work today which while monochromatic, was very comfortable and received quite a few compliments.

  Lunch was a salad from Toastie’s and I once experimented with dressing options again, today opting for fresh lemon juice and a dash of olive oil. It was delicious!

Today’s combo included chopped romaine, chopped tomatoes, red and green peppers, feta, cucumber, red onion, and salt & pepper. I also tried Lipton’s new Citrus Green Tea which was very refreshing!

My afternoon snack was a yogurt and a Nuun infused bottle of water.

After work I ran the 1.8 miles home in order to put my daily mileage at a total of 5 miles which was on my training plan. While I know it’s important to fit in mid mileage runs during the week, it was tough fitting in the mileage this morning due to work. I don’t plan on splitting the mileage on a weekly basis but once in a while it should be okay.

Upon walking through the door, I smelled spice!

Tonight’s dinner was Rub with Love salmon, grilled perfectly, served along side corn on the cob and mixed vegetables. If you’ve never tried Rub with Love you must order some immediately! We discovered it while we were out in Seattle a year ago and have been obsessed ever since! Last but not least, the folks over at Go Sport ID want to make sure you never exercise without identification again! It wasn’t until I saw giveaways for Road ID on other blogs that I thought about the fact that I never carry identification with me on runs. If I was to get hit by a cab, get run over by a biker, or suffer from heat exhaustion no one would know how to reach Bo or my family. Luckily, Go Sport ID can change that with their new Go Sport ID bracelet. The winner will receive a free Sport Band bracelet with their running mantras, name, and emergency contact information engraved.
