Weekend Round Up

Monday: 1 mile

Tuesday: 1 mile

Wednesday: 1.5 mile in the morning. 0.5 mile in the evening.

Thursday: 1.5 mile in the morning. 0.5 mile in the evening. 

Friday: I probably got burned out with work. I came home and took a good nap and felt like a brand new woman. Totally needed that. 

Saturday: 1 mile at noon. Increased speed by 0.5 for every 0.25 mile. I like doing stuff like that - makes me work a little harder and kinda helps distract me and makes time seem to go by faster.
1 mile in the evening. It was a little slower. 

Sunday: 1 mile. Started at 2.5 mph, increased the speed by 0.1 mph for every 1 minute. 

This Week's Total: 9 miles.

This week is the first week back to work after a wonderful, restful, easy summer break. It is all about getting back into a routine, especially the morning routine with a time constraint. So far, I think I did a fairly nice job of getting my walks done first thing in the morning. Four days out of five weekdays. Not too shabby right? 

I think I could have boost the 0.5 mile in the evenings to 1 mile. I should be doing that. So, I will be working on it this coming week.

I love it that I broke the 8-mile per week this week.  I am going to break the 9-mile mark this coming week.

I have found that 2 miles a day kinda help prevent the rub-buh-dub-dub on my thighs a little. I am going to try and do that this week.

I did some kitchen experiments from the pins I pinned over at Pinterest this week. It has been quite a delicious week.

It says it is Texas Roadhouse rolls. 

I don't know. 

But it is tasty. 

Find recipe here.

This is crockpot beef and broccoli. 

I added mushrooms and bamboo shoots and sautéed the vegetables separately instead of following the instruction to dunk it into the Crock Pot. 

I am a rebel like that. 

Find recipe here.

I also did another tasty dish too. 

Crock Pot chicken teriyaki.

The recipe for  crockpot chicken teriyaki is here.  

How was your week? 

Any new experiments with runs or meals? 

Are y'all getting back to school/work like I am too?
