After getting a late start this morning, I stepped out the door sometime around 9am. Today I used my Garmin and mapmyrun app on my phone to track what I was doing. I loved today's run. It was warm definitely but there was a semi-cool breeze for most of it. I ran around 2 ponds and a new neighborhood that I hadn't been through yet. I especially loved the first pond as they put up flags for the 4th of July.
The only issue I had today is what I would call a rookie mistake and started last night. Generally the night before I run I drink a bottle or 2 of water and then I bring a small bottle with me when I run. But I forgot last night and then today I brought the same small bottle with me that I bring on short runs. Obviously, I am feeling a bit dehydrated and need to really remember to hydrate better.
I wrapped up my run in under an hour, which is a great starting point. I came home stretched, iced my ankle, and tackled some serious food! I had to have protein pancakes. I doctored up a recipe from Julie. Into the mix went
- old fashioned oats
- an egg
- some low fat cottage cheese
- pumpkin pie spice and ground cloves
After cooking up 2 flapjacks, I topped them with a chopped up apple and 2 Tblsp of almond butter. I also threw the whole thing into the microwave to melt the almond butter and to heat up the apples. I hate it when there are cold things on top of hot food....weird, I know.
Today me and the husbster are headed to check out the Chesepeak Bay area and scoping out a place for fireworks!!!!!!!!!!!
