New Gear

Finally, I get a chance to spend some time with you!

Sorry I've been away, and missed a few posts. It's been a little busy over here.

We had friends over for dinner last night, and then this morning I left early to go to a wives get together for D's work. I gotta keep this top secret for the time being, but all will be revealed in time ;)

I did manage to scarf down a bowl of overnight oats before I left for the get together.

In the bowl overnight:

• 1/2 cup oats
• 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
• 1/3 plain nonfat yogurt
• 1/3 cup enriched rice milk
• a few raisins 
• cinnamon

Toppings added in the morning:

• a little honey
• 1 tbsp natural PB

It was tasty. My favorite overnight oats ingredient is raisins. They make everything so sweet - naturally. 

Like I said, my meeting today is top secret, but I can't wait to tell you all about it! So I couldn't take any pictures of the lunch... my apologies, but I couldn't help it. 

Yesterday I bought shoes!! I'm so happy about them too. 

Aren't they gorgeous! Brand new asics. My old pair were over a year old, and I found these new ones on sale. 

Sale on shoes = happy happy Shayna 

I also found a pair of these on sale.

Nike Tempo shorts. 

LOVE these. They are my first pair, and I couldn't be happier with them. It's so tempting to go back and by one in every colour!

All this new running gear called for a great run! So I hit the gym for a 4.5 mile run. 

I did 4.5 miles in 41 minutes. Not too bad, eh? I was pretty proud of myself :)

• 1 cup enriched rice milk
• 2 cups spinach
• 1/2 scoop protein powder
• 1/2 frozen banana
• 1/2 cup mixed frozen berries

This is what I drank to refuel myself. I didn't make the mistake I made a few days ago. Liquids are so much better than protein bars after a tough workout! Lesson learned.

I think we're all caught up now. Time to study...
