WIAW in April

Happy Hump Day!
It’s Wednesday. Thanks Jenn for organizing What I ate Wednesday.

WIAW in AprilI had a great workout this morning. It was a struggle to get out the door, but once I started, I couldn’t stop.

This week I am staying at my parents place since I can not move into my new apartment until this coming weekend.  They live on the campus of a private high school so I have a lot of amenities at my disposal. This morning I took advantage of the trails in the woods and the gym! I ran “the lighted loop”, and used my Garmin to see how long it would take. As a kid I always thought this was so hard and I was so bada** when I did it. Turns out it is almost 2 miles! To give my young self some credit, it is hilly!

After my quick ‘warm-up’ run I did my first ever Tabata workout using my sweeeeeeeet Gymboss timer. It makes doing intervals a million times easier.

After I did the tabata (which I will post later this week) I did this quick number here:

My Vega Sport endurance drink kept me going through the whole workout! I really liked the Lemon Lime flavor.

I made a post-workout drink with juice from a fresh lemon, 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar, a glass of water, and a splash of 100% OJ. I have been wanting to incorporate this into my daily diet, so I figured “there is no better day to start than today!” Brittnay does a great job explaining the health benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar in this post.

It was really pretty good.

Continuing on to my eats…

Breakfast was a range of fruits; including bananas, watermelon and grapefruit.
