Brief Update on Training

It's been awhile since my last update, I have been super busy with work and life. Here is a small glimpse to my training. I took a week off to give my body some time to heal from track season. Track season was so much fun, setting new P'R's and have now I have high expectations to what types of training will be useful to me for next years to come. TWO of them, is SPEED and lots of STREGHTH! I am teaming up with a group of women this summer to work hard and get down to business. =)

Easy 45 min run for a long run, transition phase. :)

Today I ran , 45 min easy run, as my coach De La Cruz says, "for the first month of training it is about transitioning to cross-country season. Take my runs by feel and no speed!" I love the sound of that, being we as runners put so much impact on our bodies.

O yeah I forgot to mention, I got this new baby in the mail yesterday. The Garmin 220. I am in love and I had a good amount of Runners High this morning on my easy run. I love how your runs can link up to your phone to Garmin Connect, and also link to my Fitness Pal. How technology made life so much easier.

Garmin 220!

Happy Woman, can't you see that, crooked smile ! =)

My first week back to training (after a week off) has definitely been a transition... too weight training, hamstring, glutes, core, and getting my miles back up. I feel so motivated this year to run faster. I will be running some 5k/10k soon, I will keep you all posted which ones soon. I know for certain,  I will be running the Long Beach, half marathon. I cannot wait to see what I can do this year! =)

Here is a picture of my break fast this morning. I now keep track on what I eat, before I would eat anything, too pizza, hamburgers, fries and so on. I have learned as a runner, I have to watch what I put inside my body. I would run every 5 min to the restrooms, because my stomach is very sensitive to specific foods. I do love my brownies and cookies so I will eat some, time to time.

The pros in having a healthy life style.  Eating healthy has helped my face become more clear, oily free, and my body doesn't feel salty. I feel more confident and happier because my body is feeling fitter and strong. 

French Toast with Beans.:)
