DAY 30 OF 365: JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS


So I had every intention of getting up this morning and going to the gym for some cardio before heading into the office. However, my legs had something else in mind. After last night’s intense workout with JC, my legs were sore, but when I got up this morning, they were sore and tight. I ended up spending about 30 minutes just stretching out. So my cardio workout was postponed until this evening. Walking to the PATH train I must have looked like a penguin waddling down the stairs. Once at the office, it was just a normal day of extras casting. Tonight I did an hour of cardio on the treadmill. I kept a nice pace up increasing the speed and then decreasing to keep my heart rate up and in turn burn more fat. I didn’t push the workout tonight since I will be meeting with JC tomorrow night after work. I am sure he will put me through the ringer. That’s ok though because I have noticed that my endurance during the workout has increased and I don’t tire as quickly as I used to. Now, JC still pushes me to the point where I feel like I am going to collapse, but I have noticed that I last longer. Go me!
I found a Turkey Quinoa Chili recipe that I am excited to try out this weekend. I am a huge fan of chili but I am looking for a healthier version and I think that I might have found it. I am going to send the recipe to Jessica tomorrow morning and see what she thinks about. I am also excited because Jessica is sending me a recipe for healthy fruit sorbet.
Well off to bed. Busy day tomorrow and an ice storm is headed our way. Who’s excited about that? I know I am. What’s more fun than slipping and sliding all the way to work while being hit in the face by ice?  Fun times. Summer, if you can hear me, I am ready for you to make your presence known.
