First Run of '09

by Meghann on January 2, 2009

It felt great this morning to just get up and run.

Usually when I have a day off of work and have plenty of time to run I like to shake it up and drive somewhere fun to run, but this morning I was perfectly happy starting right outside my door. I felt nice and refreshed as I ran around the familiar route and returned after barely breaking a sweat. The weather is amazing outside right now, the temp is in the low 70s and the sun is shining bright up above. I wish every day started off this easy.

Morning stats:

Distance: 4.6 miles

Duration: 45:10

Calories Burned: 448

I have plans today for an early lunch, so when I returned I wanted a light and healthy breakfast.

In my bowl I had 1/2 cup of Kashi Vive, 1/2 cup of Kashi Mighty Kids, Pom Seeds, Blackberries and Mango.

There is seriously nothing better then starting your morning with a nice big portion of fresh fruit.

Time to take a shower and get ready for the day. I am so enjoying my holiday vacay, good thing I still have a few more days until I return to the real world. I need to live it up while I can!

For anyone that’s working today I hope it flies by! It’s Friday!!!!
