Wednesday Workout!

Hello there! I started this post at 6:06 in the morning while I finished my preworkout drink, a cup of black coffee. Remember my post about how it releases fatty acids into your bloodstream for use during workouts? It also just makes me feel human before I start my workout! Here is what I had planned for this morning: 

1 mile run

100 air squats (full depth of course!) 

100 sit ups (all the way up, feet together in front of you, like you're stretching) 

100 biceps curls (alternating, I used a 10 pound weight)

Sounds fun, huh? The sit ups kicked my butt, normally I can power through those pretty quickly, but this morning they took some time. It felt like a great all over workout! I've got a lot of preparing to do, I just signed up for the J&A Wicked 10k in October and the Harbor Lights Half Marathon in November, I'm so excited! I've done the Wicked before, it's always a lot of fun. The Harbor Lights is brand new and will be around downtown Norfolk which should be pretty awesome. Time to start training! There will be a lot more running in my future. 

Last night, Vic and I watched one of our favorite shows, Extreme Weight Loss with Chris and Heidi Powell. I had shared on Instagram and Twitter a picture of myself on my recumbent bike while I was watching the show and had tagged Chris and Heidi Powell in the comments. Chris Powell responded back to me and said I rock! I probably shouldn't be so excited, but it made my week!

We got in our Juice Plus+ tummies for Ryker. He loves them! I only give him one in the morning for now. I cut it up into four little pieces and he couldn't get them in his face fast enough. Lately, he's been a pickier eater than normal, just refusing some things that he normally loves, but from what I've read this should pass. He sure has a little personality these days, and some days it has quite a bit of attitude! We might be in trouble for when he gets closer to two!

Well, Vic is at school tonight so I'm watching my episodes of Keeping up with the Kardashians and the Real Housewives of Orange County and I am going to bed EARLY! I hope you had a great Wednesday, talk to you soon!
