Good Morning ladies!! Wow – was yesterday fun! I ran the whole 5k in just under 40 minutes and came in 561 in my age class out of 969 runners! Woo hoo!! My friend Linda is amazing! I can’t believe she ran the 15… very very impressive… Afterwards we headed over to the after party and indulged in some chocolate fondue and hot chocolate. I still can’t believe there were around 23 thousand people there….Silke – I may just be addicted to 5k events!! 😉
Food yesterday… Yikes! Not the best, but here we go … a blueberry muffin and coffee from dunkins pre-race, post race – yup fondue fruit and hot chocolate, airport burger a few fries and a micky d’s hot fudge sunday – I know – horrible!!

Wednesday -Got up and weighed in at 130.4! I know, I can’t help myself with only two full days left until the photo shoot I am pulling out all the stops! Last night went to go get a hair color and missed the store by 5 mins, so I ran across the street and had it done at a little salon… The girl who did my hair is coming this Saturday for a facial, I guess everything happens for a reason – right? Tonight the spray tan 🙂
Today I have my 20 min pre-boot camp workout and then bootcamp – at lunch there will be another 4 mile walk – the weather is so nice I want to take full advantage of it…
Food – oatmeal pre-boot camp, egg whites and green beans post BC. Green smoothie, salad, apple, shrimp, 1 oz of cashews and raisins and dinner will be Salmon, veggie hash (this is what I’m calling Val’s cauliflower rice, plus carrots and butternut squash – yum) and salad… last night got home at 8 pm so ended up having a green smoothie for dinner.
Thursday – Today’s Plan!!! Extra lemon water, no salt, extra veggies and fruit, protein will consist of egg whites, salmon and nuts…. Workout today – did intervals on treadmill, these were intense – did 5 min jog to start and then did the 1 min walk run from 5.2 to 6.7 from 7.0 – 8.0 I did 30 second jumps on and off the treadmill – really got my heart rate up…. Also going to get my 4 mile walk in, then maybe and extra walk tonight on the treadmill before bed…. Gosh I can not believe the photo shoot is here already!!
Friday – OMG – I had so much fun today – it was crazy. These ladies are fabulous! – I had no idea I could look like that – sorry, but I have to give myself a WOW!! The shoot ended up being a little more vava-voom than I expected, but still tasteful. I’m sure there are still a few I can share!!
