It's Green!

The first smoothie of the week that is actually the color green (the others have been purple)! This one is kale, avocado and banana. Wasn't sure about it at first but I think it is growing on me!

Recap: Repeat of last week in that I met my point goal but I'm still having issues getting in the strength training.  Maybe a training plan with a 4 day running schedule is simply not the answer for me.

My Saturday long run was a vast improvement over last week.  I felt so much better and so much stronger and I was much more in tune with what my pace should be.  The weather was great, and the scenery running around Gull Lake was amazing.  Now if only the temp would inch up another 10-20 degrees we'd have long run perfection!

Goals for week 5 - Stick in the 45-50 point range.  Starting that green smoothie challenge on Monday - I spent my Sunday afternoon preparing ziploc bags full of smoothie goodness (?) in advance.  I'm also doing a 7 day sugar detox (just added sugars for this round).  Then I've just got to figure out how to get in a 13 mile training run when I have an all day meeting on Saturday and a 5k Sunday mid-morning followed by the regular Sunday afternoon family schedule.  Guess that means skipping church to get in 10 miles before the 5k!  Not ideal but this close to the River Bank Run I'm not sure I have another choice!
