Bess Be Fit

After work today I came home incredibly eager to get out and run!  The weather here, like many places I’m hearing, has been gorgeous the past couple of days and today was no exception.  It was 55 degrees when I got home.  I ate a piece of whole wheat bread with PB & honey for some pre-run fuel, watched an episode of Friends while I digested, and then headed out with Maverick.

We completed 5.5 miles in 52 minutes, so it was actually pretty fast considering Mav was with me!  He normally likes a 10-11 minute mile.  Woohoo go Mav!  I guess we were both enjoying the weather so much we just felt good in the pace we had.  He was happy to lay down on the cool kitchen floor afterwards…

Gosh I just love that face.

Music

Some songs of note from my run:

• I Can Only Imagine by David Guetta ft. Chris Brown & Lil Wayne
• Wild Ones by Flo Rida ft. Sia
• Where Do We Go by Pitbull ft. Jamie Foxx
• The Fame by Lady GaGa
• Glad You Came by The Wanted
• Feel So Close (Extended Mix) by Calvin Harris—>love it!

Post-run I showered and went to the grocery store.  We’ve been in pretty bad need of restocking the food in our place so I finally accomplished that tonight.  I love having stocked shelves  I couldn’t find kale anywhere but I did find baby kale!  I figured since I always tear the kale up into little pieces anyways that this actually helped me do less work while preparing my food!

My dinner was a baby kale salad with olive oil, sprouts, and a veggie burger patty.

Delicious.  Totally my fave. I will probably be having this for lunch tomorrow and dinner many times in the future.

And my favorite healthy dessert…raspberry Chobani greek yogurt with a few dark chocolate chips!

Yummy.  Now I’m going to relax on the couch for a little while before bedtime.  I hope you are having a nice night!

What is your favorite healthy dinner & dessert combo??
