    Is cabbage considered a green or white veggie? Both colors are in it?!!

    CHALLENGE #3
    I ate five green vegetables tonight. They were bell pepper, lettuce, spinach, broccoli and cucumber. I made a taco salad (minus the chips and shell) with turkey meat and mushrooms. I really needed this healthy challenge (I've eaten really crappy these past few days and feel blah from it).

    Cabbage counts as green!

    I made some progress on the list of green fruits and veggies today too. I had spinach, brussel sprouts, and avocado. The brussel sprouts were interesting - I had leftover taco meat and I roasted the brussel sprounts with some olive oil and taco seasoning, and then topped it with the meat (which also had red peppers in it), and added on some avocado and sour cream. It was quite delicious.

    The spinach I had in this:

    Technically I also had lime - a little squirt of lime with my taco meal AND key lime ice cream for dessert! B) I won't count that though. :) I bought lots of stuff to finish out the challenge and will post the full thing officially when I'm done.

    I didn't end up having time for yoga this morning, so I just did a 30 minute treadmill run. Tonight after work I took Stella out for a much needed long hike/walk. She was feeling pretty cooped up because it's been so cold we haven't gotten our full walks in for a few days. She was extra zoomy on the walk and the temps were a little warmer so it was bearable to be out for an hour.

    Tonight the snow comes! It's winter storm STELLA!!! Can you believe they named a storm after my girl? Hope it lives up to her craziness.

    Oh this green food will be fun. I'll count two tonight - salad greens and wasabi!

    Does this salad make my Margarita look green? :D

    Where was all that lovely fresh ginger last week?

    ETA: Thinking about it, there was a lime in the margarita. Thanks for the idea @katharmonic

    Howdy all! Yesterday was not a good first day back. My lunch consisted of ....cookies. Yep, just cookies. Raw dough and a bag of famous Amos. Then leftover Chinese for dinner (there was broccoli!!) and popcorn while catching up on recorded shows. No wonder I feel like sludge this morning! Off to get my first 5k done and I'm on my way with the steps. I may do the stretching video though. It didn't help my golf game last week but I think that was due more to the course and s-l-o-w play which wrecks my game.

    And I too was stunned we didn't have step dancing or clogging to do this week! Not complaining though!

    @katharmonic boy I wouldn't mess with that little puppy dog and make her mad!! Stella sure made my drive to work tough. And I know it is a lot worse other places.

    CHALLENGE #1:

    I CHOSE THE SYDNEY BRIDGE CLIMB CHALLENGE FROM WEEK 3(AUSTRALIA).
    I CHOSE THIS CHALLENGE BECAUSE I LIKE TO SCALE TALL BUILDINGS IN MANY, MANY MULTIPLES OF SINGLE BOUNDS. ;) I climbed 131 floors on the stairmill this morning - 1572 steps according to your calculations, but my stairmill has 17 steps per floor, so really 2227 steps.

    I did a 5K this morning but I'm not sure what I'm going to do for my other challenge yet so I'm holding off on choosing which 5K I did!

    Winter storm Stella is raging along here!
    hswf4vupwcaj.jpg

    I managed to get out of the house this morning and go to a group indoor track running workout. It was great because only 2 other people showed up and I got a lot of time talking with the coach. Then I got home and ate some lunch before heading out with Stella, the dog, into Stella, the storm. We had a pretty but tough hike in the snow. It was so quiet and beautiful in the woods. We saw a really big coyote that made me a bit nervous but was gorgeous to see against the snow. Thankfully she kept moving the other way because he/she and Stella definitely saw each other. I would never have seen it without the snow.

    @MimiOfTheLusciousLawn wowee on cranking out those stairs! My quads ache in sympathy.

    @ejdp254 great job on your Iditarod.
    @cardbucfan good job on your 5k too!

    All the veggies are sounding good! I need to start working on dinner!

    Challenge #1 completed

    I chose the Iditarod 10.49 miles from the Alaska leg last week. I'm trying to meet my goal of running 95 miles this month so I needed the miles anyway and it is appropriately Alaskan out there right now! I ran 2.6 miles yesterday and 5.0 miles today (both indoor) and I hiked with Stella outdoors for 2.8 miles yesterday and 2.5 miles today. So the total came to over 12 miles.

    For challenge 1 I will be doing the Sydney Bridge Climb. I'll be finished with it tomorrow. I'm up to 948. I like taking the stairs instead of elevators so my work makes it easy to get the challenge done.

    Not sure about Challenge 2 yet

    @mamaelf2008: You definitely nailed Challenge #3. That is a whole lotta green! :)
    Yes, "His Majesty" would have poopooed the Green Gummy Bears. He even turned down my Chocolate Chip Mint Ice Cream! :o

    @ejdp254: I'm not sure if riding your bike will count for the Iditarod! I won't be able to find out until tomorrow, so maybe you might want to start another challenge just in case *HE* won't accept it.

    PLEASE STAY AND SAFE IN THIS STORM! <3

    You could always put a few sprigs of mint on top of your ice cream to make it legal! Hahahaa just kidding
