Terrific Tuesday

Well, I guess today went pretty well for a Tuesday.

  • I got my package mailed and skipped the line, thanks to the automated postage machine.
  • I got my work done.
  • I got my run done.
  • I saw 7 goundhogs today!!! I almost hit my record of 8 in one day…so close!

While working this afternoon, I had one of my Chocolate Amazing Grass bars for a snack.

I think these are my new favorite bars – I’m going to have to order more once they’re gone since there aren’t any stores that sell them around here!

I had a 4 mile run to do today and was happy to be outside after work. I think today is going to be our nicest day this week, so I wanted to make sure to get a run in. It was only 65 degrees, but the sun was still out a little and there was a slight breeze. Perfect.

I still haven’t put my new battery in my HRM (I know…) and just wore a stopwatch today. I don’t know the exact mileage or mile splits, but I’ve run this route before and know I got in 4 miles. I actually felt pretty good today! My legs weren’t tight today like they were on Sunday and the nice weather just makes running so much more fun.

After running + stretching + showering, we heated up a quick dinner.

We both had some leftover split pea soup from last night, and I had a toasted slice of ww bread with some honey butter.

I think the soup was even better tonight. It had thickened up a little and was just the perfect texture.

I haven’t made this yet, but I’m pretty sure this will be snack tonight:

popcorn

My easy microwave popcorn.

 

What was “terrific” about your Tuesday?

I loved seeing all those groundhogs  :) I think they’re so cute!

I’m also happy I got my package mailed. I was returning/exchanging some clothes I ordered and can’t wait to the new/replacements get here. *Hoping everything fits.

I’m in my pajamas at 7:30.

  1. 7 groundhogs!!?? That’s insane! Don’t worry…I’m in PJs too already!

  2. 7 groundhogs? How? where? Running a half made my day, but not as much as my “celebratory cupcake” will to the tune of The Biggest Loser.

  3. I love easy days and early PJ’s.

    Today was good because I got tons of stuff done and didn’t freak out. I got in PT, lots of calls and emails, dinner with Hunni at Subway and now getting some blog posts done.

  4. I’m such a huge fan of those bars… i wish more places sold them!
