If you read my blog regularly, it shouldn’t be any surprise that for dinner, I opted for Whole Foods hot bar. It’s a glorious thing. I figure I was carb-loading for tomorrow morning’s 5K (meeps!) with running rockstars like Caitlin, Meghann, Kelly, Megan and Lucas.
That’s right — in less than 10 hours, I will officially have completed my first 5K. I’ve done 5K distances before, in triathlons, but since running is my weakest link … I’m not sure how tomorrow will go. But it will be a blast!
I have a new iTunes playlist ready to rock:
I love that PiNK song so much, I made it my ringtone!
Lucas and I picked up our packets tonight and met up with Caitlin, Meghann, Kelly and a couple of Caitlin’s friends … had a blast over tea and vegetarian food at Dandelion Cafe then we split to run a few errands and grab a late dinner. That’s my beast above — here’s Luke’s:
Funny that you can see our forks in both shots — we couldn’t wait to dig in! I also had some unpictured cacoa nibs for dessert.

Before I turn in, I am THRILLED to announce the winner of the Dr. Kessler book giveaway is …
Biggest struggle when it comes to food? Choosing the right food. I’ve been exercising regularly for years now, but the end result is that I am so very hungry every couple (and by very hungry, I mean stomach is literally growling, and by couple, I mean two hours). I get tired of choosing the healthy option every two hours.
Victoria, this is my struggle, too — ever since I started training for triathlons, my hunger has been off the charts. I’ll send you an email and send the book your way. Thanks for entering!
Random rant — my Hugh Jass lunch was made up of this crud:
I hate that stuff — it’s crunchy, tastes gross and takes up space in an otherwise delicious bowl of greens.
And with that, it’s bedtime. I’ll leave you with this picture that Lucas sent me while trying to work from home — our cat had another idea.
I love Whole Foods. Your playlist is awesome!
You go girl! Have a great run, both of you…well, ALL of you! Say hi to the girls for me.
Good luck on the run! How cool that you are running with other bloggers
