Extreme Icing!

I really did serious icing today and....I hate it! Brrrrr! But I'll do what I need to do. I feel like I should hold off running till things seem "normal".

As I typed that I realized, duh!, that I'm going to be reporting that I ran hills at lunch! I did 5 and it was so much fun to be out there and do them. I missed it!

I did that ab video this am, again. Geesh, it is hard! It is cut into 10 minutes segments so it was just 10 minutes of abs. Totally doable.

And then I did the elliptical at the gym for 20 minutes.

Home and had a healthy dinner. Just tallied up my calories and I ended up the day at 1370. Pretty good - maybe I can have a snack!

Dang, it is hard how those calories add up!

Did you know that an entire cup of asparagus only has 27 calories??? Yay asparagus I love you!

You had better lay off until you feel good again. Sounds like you had a good day though.

I knew there was more to love about asparagus than just the taste!

I woke up at 6:00 this morning but had such a headache that I just turned the alarm off and didn't get up until 6:45. So no little run today. And it's a gorgeous morning out there, too! Would have been nice. Oh well. Have no clue why the headache. Took Ibuprofin and it's gone now. I plan to do a 4 mile run tomorrow and see how it goes.

I need to find more veggies like asparagus! Tonight I had bok choy and that only has 9 calories per cup! Nuts! But it is very nutritionally dense:

I'm sorry to hear about your headache. How are you feeling tonight?

Good luck tomorrow!
