Still doing the daily spinach-banana-frozen strawberry smoothies. I'm leaving this photo sideways to illustrate how smoothies offer you a new perspective on life, or something.
Today we ran 5 km at a faster pace and my legs are feeling okay with that, as opposed to the soreness from going the longer distances at a slower pace. Fueled by two Costco muffins left on the table for me by my thoughtful roommate, I was hurting right away. I can tell when I'm suffering on a run because I can hear myself breathing harder and people look at me with concern. Their concerned looks serve only to make me suck it up and suffer more greatly in silence. I also put on a front of serenity and poise when I run near attractive people, or near children that look admiringly at us as ideals of human achievement. Gotta do it for the kids. Then collapse around the corner.
So, yeah; I ate muffins for breakfast. They were the sugar kind. Maple-flavoured, perhaps.
I also gave myself water.
After the run, my magical running buddy (yes I said buddy) treated me to some chocolate frozen yogurt with pistachio nuts. Thank-you! Tomorrow, we do Steamrollers.
I feel well.
Previous night: Last night I ate mainly cashews from the Superstore and bananas with peanut butter (peanuts and nothing else in the ingredient list).
Night before that: We shared a large Flying Wedge Broken Hearts pizza with Caribbean dipping sauce. On a dare, we each had a large hazelnut chocolate bar to see who could eat more of it before feeling sick. I won! I out-ate Lori!
