What I Ate Wednesday!

September 21, 2011 By Heather Blackmon

.

If you read many blogs, you have probably seen What I Ate Wednesday popping up on several. This week, I decided to join the fun with my first official WIAW post!

If you follow the link above, you can see even more WIAW posts from blogs around the interweb. 🙂

Breakfast

Chia Seed Breakfast Bowl. Recipe from Kathy on The Family Kitchen

Chrysanthemum Tea.

Lunch
Tamale Pie (leftovers). Recipe from Eat, Live, Run

Snack

Dinner
Avocado Salad. Built from Taco Mac Shrimp & Avocado Salad, without the shrimp & adding tomatoes.
New Belgian Super Cru Beer. I was craving salad tonight, so this was absolutely perfecto! The Super Cru beer is a high gravity beer, clear, fresh, and wonderful!

 

 

 

Marathon Update

 

Update on yesterday's post about my MCM plans. I think it was smart to write that down, although it felt a little more like complaining than I had planned. Having gotten it down and run today (without pain, but endurance is obviously lacking) I was able to make the smart decision I should have made a while ago...I officially deferred my registration. I'm not racing the half marathon this weekend, I'll play it by ear for a few weeks. Focusing on strength training and base training, looking for some fun shorter races to finish up the season with fun! I'll be back for another marathon before you know it!!

 

I'm not quite cool enough to have my own giveaway yet, but check out this awesome running gear giveaway on The Hungry Runner Girl blog. Everyone loves FREE stuff!!

 

Question of the Day – What fun races are on your calendar for the year, I love having goals to shoot for – just need something a little shorter for the rest of 2011! 🙂

Welcome

Hi! I’m Heather, a yoga & wellness teacher based in Colorado... Read More…

Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine lake or shredding on a local trail? ⬇️

In both cases, we need to protect the land we enjoy on our adventures. And Leave No Trace is one program that helps with that - especially those that have a high rate of degradation through a program called Hot Spots. 

I'm excited to be partnering with @leavenotrace and @onxbackcountry to celebrate and preserve all these beautiful outdoor places. And for all of June, $10 of every onX Backcountry membership is being donated towards Leave No Trace’s Hot Spot program. A great way to get access to my favorite backcountry app AND support LNT! 

I added a link in my bio if you're interested in learning more, so you can help #ExploreandRestore!

What scares me is probably different than what scares you.

I am admittedly a timid mountain biker - but getting better every day.

I'm afraid to face plant, but still working on crow pose in yoga.

⬇️ What is one thing that scares you & how are you working on it?

Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga clothes?

For at least part of the day, it's just easier to put on yoga pants, sports bra, and a "zoom-appropriate" top. Or a button-up layered over my workout tank. It makes it SO much easier to squeeze in a workout when I have time.

Tell me I'm not the only one who's not going back to work clothes?!

Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸 But reall Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸

But really, keep your gaze straight ahead to keep your neck safe in bridge (or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana). It's rare that a version of this pose isn't included during cooldown in my classes.

Do you love bridge as much as I do?
