Quick check-in with my meal plan for the week ahead along with last week’s workouts. I hope you’re having a lovely Sunday!
This Week’s Meal Plan
Sunday:
One pan roasted dinner with spicy Italian chicken sausage, acorn squash, onions and whatever other veggies I decide to add.
Monday:
Armenian Lentil Soup with Eggplant and Apricots
Tuesday:
Herbs de Provence chicken breasts with and orzo with roasted broccoli (trying this one again from the week I failed my meal plan execution)
Wednesday:
Homemade spaghetti sauce over spaghetti squash
Thursday:
I have an event so leftovers or out
Friday:
Fish or seared scallops (whichever looks better) over artichoke risotto with a vegetable
Saturday:
Out for a Halloween party
Last Week’s Workouts
Sunday:
40 minute walk
Monday:
3.5 miles easy (9:15 pace)
Tuesday:
Hot yoga
Wednesday:
5.33 miles at 8:33 pace
Thursday:
2.25 miles on the treadmill starting at 9 minute mile pace and working to 7:15 + teach Total Strength
My Total Strength class had tons of lunges and squats and the curtsy lunges we did left me sore for 2 days right at the top of my glutes!
Friday:
Hot yoga + 3 mile walk
Saturday:
15.11 miles at 8:54 pace
Sunday
Walk and maybe some yoga depending on how I feel after I teach
What’s on your meal plan for the week?
Best workout last week?

I am on a three-hour flight home from Scottsdale so it seems like the perfect time to relive and recap yesterday’s Every Woman’s Marathon experience. I had a great day and I’m very proud of the race that I ran. It was a practice in “fun running” and that not every race effort has to [...]

I’m going to get really real right away. I wish I could say that I was feeling excited and confident about the race but [...]
