Happy Easter!

I've been meaning to post all week, but I've been a procrastinating loser. Oh well....

Happy Easter! I hope everyone celebrated in a way that resonated with them. I started off with a fun new breakfast recipe that I'm going to name Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal!! Here's a pic


For one serving:

1/2 c of your fav oatmeal
1 c of chocolate almond milk
Microwave 2-2.5 min (only you know the power of your microwave)

Add 1 extremely ripe banana (some people call them rotten, but they are crazy) and drizzle some melted peanut butter over the top. Yum!!!!!!

Now, you can also get a little crazy and add some raisins or nuts, but it was great as is.

I went with take out from a local Asian restaurant as my Easter brunch and I was too hungry to take a photo before eating it. Sorry.

When I posted last, I was deep into a funk about having a crappy run outside. Poor me. You can tell I'm new to this running stuff. Of course I had a bad run outside! I haven't run outside that much. It was windy. It was Friday and I was tired. I've only been running since January!!!!!! I should have walked a little more. I get so competitive with myself and all the numbers sometimes and I need to calm it down. I'm reading a new book "Running for Mortals" by Bingham and Hadfield. Wish I'd had this book in January. Lots of great info, with the most important right now being "SLOW DOWN". I think this is what messed me up when I tried to run a year and a half ago. Too much, too soon, you get burned out, it isn't fun and it hurts. This gives a more commonsense approach. Patience is the key. I have had 2 good runs outside since last weekend and I feel much better about it. Running is so mental!!!!

I've also been to yoga a couple of times this past week and felt great about that. And I got a great massage yesterday to make up for a crappy one that I had several weeks ago. So, it's been a great weekend on the whole.

Also trying to make some style changes to this blog, so bear with me folks! I'm not the most technical person.
