more lovin'

as some know, i am training for a tri.

it's also known as ridiculousness happening everyday.

how do i find time you think?

i wake up at 4:30-4:45am, run 4-8 miles and then get home just in time for jack to wake up.

for breakfast i have a protein shake, green goblin juice {you've got to love subliminal messages we parents sneak in there for our kids to eat/drink healthy}... (12 servings of fruits and veggies drink) 

{jackson loves this stuff}

if you ever want me to order you some, just leave a comment below or email you.  i get it wholesale and it tastes better than the kind they have at mother's market or henrys.

...

and then get ready for work.

for lunch, i try to go to native foods or have another protein shake or take a client out to lunch.

{my cute friend arin and i at native foods by the lab.. her first time}

after work i hang out with jack, and do our whole routine.

if i have no plans, i get my booty into action.

since i don't have time to teach my spin classes like i use to or swim classes, 

i have to push myself to do it.

did i mention i hate swimming? i do.  i love surfing but swimming is not my strength.

road biking... i don't even have one.  i am training for this when jack is gone so i can go to the gym.

then, if i slept-in in the morning, then i will run at night.  i have these awesome shoes i bought with jack in mind.  they look like spiderman shoes but light up everytime i step!  it's pretty incredible.  they are actually boys shoes but it doesn't matter.  i run along some trails and do some hills.

{yes, i am really wearing this. tights, short shorts, some black jacket i got from a 10K i did and my spidey shoes. my sister bree thought i looked ridiculous so we recorded that opinion}

since we al know my passion for yoga and eating healthy, i do that whenever i can.  i drink peppermint tea to help me digest all these foods as well as get rid of all the water i am consuming. 

it's incredible how much of a difference my workouts are when i cut out diet coke and sugary foods completely.  

who knows if i will actually do this triathlon in march.  it's in mexico and i would only go if jack was with his dad... so we'll see.

i look at it as a good excuse to get rid of my excess amounts of energy i have been given.
