Hop on Board the Soul Train

**Disclaimer: I’m writing this with a lot cold medicine in my system.  You’ve been warned!

I’ve been so busy posting recipes this week.  I figured it’s time for us to catch up!

Monday:

23 miles on the spin bike, weights, and TRX.  I loved all of the fun straps!

Most importantly Monday was Chocolate Cake Day!

I made my favorite Flourless Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Ganache Glaze…yum!

I also had a great PT session!  Leah feels like I’ve turned the corner with my Achilles and I’m on the road to recovery.  She’s letting me run again.  3 days this week, 4 days next week, and then back to my regular training plan…woo hoo!!

It was also Sofritas Day at Chipotle!!

Track prep for Tuesday morning…Picky Bar and Cocogo! Use code JENCHOOSESJOY (all caps) for 10% off at Cocogo.com!

Tuesday:

I set my track alarm…

I was so excited to join my friends, but boy was it early!

I’m not quite ready for speed work, but I joined my friends for their warm-up and then did progressive miles.  It felt great!  Tights are Nike and I got them at Fleet Feet.

We lovingly refer to our track group as the Pain Train.  We decided we should change the name to the Soul Train and have a dance line instead!  “The hippest trip in America!” This is the sillyness that happens after running in circles for too long!

For dinner I made a blueberry baked steel-cut oatmeal…so good!  I’ll type up the recipe soon.  I LOVE having breakfast for dinner.

Wednesday:

First things first…

I had a run date…great company and no Achilles pain!!  This was the first time I’ve run back-to-back days in forever.  Then I stopped by the new Daily Juice in Brentwood.  I had the El Tropicado and it rocked!

I stopped by Fleet Feet to pickup one of the new TN Run Y’all t-shirts…so cute!  My girlfriends also happened to be there at the same time!  Great minds think alike 🙂

 

I think I need to find this shirt…it’s perfect!

Do you make breakfast for dinner?  It’s one of my favorite dinners.  My husband makes the best omelettes.

What’s your favorite breakfast?  Mine is the croissant french toast at Marche in Nashville.

What’s your best sore throat remedy?  Pretty please with a cherry on top, help me out!
