Flight Risk

Tomorrow the plan is to post a workout for all of you.  But today I think I need to write some fitspiration, for you, for me, for us all and a little about my weekend diet. 

At least one person voiced concerned over my recent "I'm a Bad Mom" post as well as a recent status update on my facebook that said "I was a flight risk this week."

First the blog post... well I was feeling bad and I don't think any parent thinks they are doing the best for their kids all the time.  If they do, well then those people are probably actually not very good parents at all.  My family is not complete and is not whole at the moment, I know that, but I also realize that Heavenly Father will provide me with a complete family and will do so in the Temple.  (For any readers who are new to this blog, I am LDS) 

About my status update, the update was suppose to be funny more than anything, and it was my way of saying I needed a break.  And I will get that break this weekend up in Salt Lake City, yes I am running away a bit.  I don't do it often, if ever, but this weekend I don't want to be home.  I am going up to SLC to go stay with my friend and his family for the weekend.  I think I need some time with a family over the weekend.  I can't be with my children and hanging out with my local friends is fun but sometimes a person needs more.

And guess what? I found a race to run with one of my other good friends while I am in SLC.  So that's right, I'll have a race recap next week on the blog.  Ohhh, I know you are all so excited.  I hope to come back recharged for the tough week ahead.

Pre-Race Diet

This race was a bit unexpected as I will be registering tomorrow and then running on Saturday (yep, I'm back in Utah where races on Saturday not on Sunday.)  Normally I would eat a large bowl of pasta the night before but because Summit (Beacbhbody Coach's Summit) is just over 30 days out and I want to look my best and I will be starting the Beachbody Ultimate Reset (see link below)

Looks like this girl will be running on veggies and Shakeology the next 3 weeks, but good fuel makes for a good body.  You all know you like the results of my diets on me and on yourself (for those of you who follow them.)  For those of you (you know who you are) who don't love my "granola" eating habits and sometime earth friendly ways, I am not a hippie!  I can't be consider a hippie because I'm an Oregon girl.  We love our veggies and the outdoors but we don't drive Prius's and we love the boys in jacked up pick up trucks.  I just heard half the girls in Oregon say "hell ya!"  LOL
