    Hi, all!

    Took several rest days this week, after the half marathon.

    Thursday: Cardio: Ran a 10k Turkey Trot. New PR for 10k (6.2 miles): 1:06:09. Was fun and a great way to start my Thanksgiving Day.

    Food: Haven't tracked, but feels on track. A little bloated from eating dishes I don't normally eat (gluten and dairy heavy). Enjoyed Thanksgiving meal. Back to normal eating on Saturday.

    Hey gang,

    I like myself unconditionally!

    Happy Monday! 2 clients this morning then 1 later and TKO tonight. With a 49er win yesterday, the week starts off awesome.............well almost. I reinjured an ankle (doing a class cool down no less) that has been bothersome since 2010. Every year I re tweak it, it's just that I never know when. I do a lot of plyometrics and never injure it. It's usually from just "mild" movement that I'm not focused on. Figures. Will work through it today and see how it goes.

    Cardio: stepmill- level 9-15 30 min (500 calories)

    Strength: quads- leg press, squat, leg extension 8x8

    Assessment: Not a great eating weekend.

    just wanted to pop in here and say that I have NOT been a slacker, just haven't been updating.

    Been out of pocket for a while and really have only missed maybe 5 non consecutive days of exercise. I've mostly been lifting. No cardio.

    Food: Not the greatest. Getting back to normal stuff this weekend.
