Food & Fitness: July 15- 20

Unfortunately due to dinners out, birthday celebrations, and having company over last week meal plan did not go as planned. One recipe that I was determined to try was this cherry roasted tomato sauce which was a hit! I am excited to have new recipes that incorporate produce from our garden. In regards to fitness and workouts, I was able to keep up with my running and strength training during the week. Due to hectic fun weekend I was unable to complete my long run.  So I am going to get a few extra miles this week to make up for it.

Food

  I think your going to start seeing a theme here. Again this week's dinner menu is all about simple and healthy.

Tuesday: BBQ Turkey Burgers with Grilled Corn

Above is my go to recipe for grilling corn. Instead of adding herb butter as it calls for in the recipe I am going to try Laughing cow herb and garlic cheese wedges.  

Wednesday: Baked Ziti with Summer Vegetables

Thursday: Company Pot Roast

Fitness

Monday: Upper body strength

Tuesday: 6 miles

Wednesday: Interval workout, upper & lower body strength 

Thursday: 5 miles

Friday: Interval workout & upper body strength

Saturday: 8 miles

Sunday: 3 miles

As you can see I am still trucking along with the half-marathon training. No complaints so far besides the heat! On longer runs I try and get up before the sun has risen to beat the heat. It is not so fun waking up at 5 on summer break but it still beats running in 80+ degree weather as soon as the sun rises.

Hope everyone has a great Monday!

Best wishes,

Ashley
