C25K week 4

This is the beginning of week 4 of the C25K program! It is going to get tougher from here on out, less walking, more running! That’s ok, I’m ready and willing! Decided to start day 1 tomorrow, going to give my knee and extra day of rest to see if I can get it feeling better. 

Starting out Monday right with a healthy fruit/veggie smoothie for breakfast. I want to see the scale 2 lbs less on Wednesday when I weigh in.

  • Fuji Apple
  • 3 Clementine oranges
  • 1 stalk of celery (small)
  • 1 large carrot
  • 1/2 cup spinach
  • 1/2 cup raspberry
  • ice&water

Healthy kick continues

I’m on week 3 of the C25K running program, with a goal of running a 5K around my birthday in March! Finally just had enough, well actually, too much, of my sedentary lifestyle. Got some great motivation from a true friend and we are working on shaping up together. I’ve run/walked 13 miles since November 28th! That is huge for me!

Also started drinking homemade fruit/juice smoothies to really up my intake of fruits and vegetables.  I made one this morning with;

  • 3 clementine oranges
  • 1 Fuji apple
  • 1 banana
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 1 cup of spinach
  • 1 cup of baby carrots
  • 1 cup fruit yogurt
  • ice/water

Does’t look great, but tastes pretty good and I’m excited about the good stuff I’m putting in my body.  Also cutting way back on beer intake!
