Niki's Neverending Adventure

My backyard is SOLID ICE!! Sadie didn’t even make a dent in it when she went out this morning!!

 

 

It’s not supposed to get above freezing today, so it looks like we are stuck with the ice today. Hopefully, I can venture out to the store this afternoon to go grocery shopping! Luckily, the store is like 2 minutes from my house!!

I’m a little nervous about what all this ice is going to mean for my long run tomorrow. Maybe by tomorrow afternoon it will melt some… because I sure don’t want to do 11 miles on the treadmill! There’s no way! Haha.

This morning I had a 3 miler on the schedule. So I hopped on the treadmill and did a nice, easy 3 miles while listening to Firefly Lane. Still loving that book! It’s awesome!! After my run, I decided to do some ab work. Here’s how it went:

• 25 reverse crunches
• Side plank with arm extended, 50 seconds each side
• 60 bicycle crunches
• Plank with arms extended, 80 seconds
• 20 jackknifes
• Plank ups, 10 each arm- These are KILLER!!

After my workout was finished, my tummy was GROWLING!! This morning I decided to make a yogurt creation!!

I mixed together:

• 1 container Blueberry Oikos Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup Pumpkin granola
• 1/2 cup OH’s
• 1/2 pear, leftover from the fiance’s lunch yesterday
• 1/2 TBSP NM PB

All mixed up!! Super yummy!! I love yogurt messes!! Only bad thing about these is that they tend to not hold me over as well as my usual oats… guess I will see!

And my morning coffee!!

What are y’all doing today?? Since I’m kinda stuck in the house, I need to live vicariously through you!! Haha :)

Have a great Saturday!!
