Relax!



Have you ever thought about running THREE half-marathons in 2 weeks? Most people haven't but your girl, well, I did it. Not only that, but the week before my first half I ran 14 miles, a 5k and a 10k (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). Yes, I've been busy. Not to mention that my last half-marathon was in New Orleans so of course after the race it was a big party! 


So, what has my wholesome choice been? Rest and relaxation. I took an entire week off from training of any type. And sometimes, that is the best thing for our health. This week I am back at it - I may even run another half-marathon this Sunday (I love bling, what can I say?) but I'm also taking Zumba and spinning classes to mix things up! 


Another part of relaxing for me was not cooking! A couple of days last week I had the apple walnut salad from McDonalds. You may be surprised to learn that McDonald’s is committed to giving us more delicious choices to feel good about in the months and years to come.
