OMG 9 days!!

I'm moderately freaking out.   I don't feel like I'm ready but I have faith that I will be able to finish and not die.   Last weekend I over did it and ended up with a migraine from the heat/dehydration so I've been taking it a little easier this week.   I've still been doing my burpees and am going to continue my training schedule next week but more importantly I have plans to up my hydration.  I'm going to add 1 extra Advocare Rehydrate to my day starting Sunday (or more if I feel like it) and I'm going to up my general H20 intake, wether with rehydrate or just straight water by 20-40 ounces through Wednesday and doubling my normal intake on Thursday and Friday.
I'm SOOOOOOO excited :) Wish me luck.

Well that was scary

Recently I received the opportunity to have a plethora of functional –medicine style tests ran courtesy of BLUEPRINT fit by Quest Diagnostics.   BluePrint Fit was the daily sponsor for Charity miles about a month ago and I received a promo code to get these tests ran for free.  I figured knowing more about your body is always a good thing and these tests would be a great way for me to get a baseline for various things like nutrient levels, how my metabolism works, my hormones and other magical numbers.  I didn’t anticipate any numbers coming back outside of the normal range with the exception of a few hormones (I was diagnosed with PCOS about 3 years ago so my hormones can be all over the place sometimes) Surprisingly my hormone numbers were all within the normal range, but a few other numbers came back that were a bit concerning.   When I was in my mid-20’s my doctor ran a routine blood screening to test things like cholesterol and my ...

What I'm eating

OMG my lunch today was amazing. I made this  chocolate hummus with a couple of modifications (extra maple syrup and cocoa power please!) and had it with strawberries and pretzels for dessert... It was amazing!

Still on the right path

Yesterday's Girls on the Run 5K was a blast.  What a wonderful organization I am so honored to be able to support such a worthy cause. Today I had a meeting after work and I planned on getting home around 8 or 8:30 so I expected it to be a rest day, so when I got home before 7 I decided I had to take advantage.  I grabbed the leash, grabbed my dog and we took off on a gentle 2 mile run/walk.   Did great even though I was a little sore from yesterday.   My dog isn't great at running with out you know, stopping and sniffing, and trying to go the other way sometimes since he's you know, a dog...and we still finished in less than 1/2 an hour. Tonight I'm reviewing my original training plan and adjusting it from the 3 months I had expected and make it a 6 - 8 week plan instead :) Wish me luck!
