Ran about 4 miles this morning. It was freakin' hot. My legs felt tired, my core felt tired...the first 2 miles were OK, but the last 2 miles were horrible. When I got back to the apartment, some of the sprinklers were on, so I stood under the water for a while to cool off. I probably looked like a lunatic, but oh well.
I was going to do some strength training today, but I'm not feeling too well. I get a head-rush everytime I stand up, and feel kind of dizzy. My stomach is upset, and I feel tired. I think I am going to call it a day and try to get out earlier tomorrow morning to beat the heat.
For those of you that are interested, I know "gunshow" is :D , here's what I ate today:
-Optimum Power cereal with skim milk
-orange juice
-Nectarine
-Kiwi
-granola bar (Optimum Recovery)
-Watercress salad (my favorite salad): watercress, shredded carrots, dried cranberries, chopped, toasted almonds, and chopped apple tossed with lemon juice.
-a cup of lowfat yogurt
I was going to have leftover beef-veggie curry and brown rice for dinner, but not sure, since I don't feel well. I might settle for some plain oatmeal.
Yesterday I made a green bean, shiitake mushroom, and tofu stir-fry, which was OK, except I think I should have soaked the mushrooms longer than I did. I've been on a greek salad kick lately, and have been eating a lot of salads made with romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, radishes, and sometimes some feta, and a homemade olive oil-lemon juice dressing. I had an awesome turkey sandwich for lunch yesterday made with Ezekial bread, avocado, lettuce, cucumber, and tomato. That was delicious! I made some other really good salads lately - one was romaine lettuce, cucumber, tomato, radish, scallions, chili beans, and a homemade cilantro dressing. The other night, hubby and I had salmon and broccolini, and I made a mango-kiwi relish to eat with the salmon. That was awesome - basically, diced mango, kiwi, cilantro, and a splash of OJ. I used the leftover relish as a salad dressing.
Well, enough of my rambling...hope you ladies had a great Wednesday!
