A Bright Idea

Good evening 🙂

I just got back from an Avalon CrossFit bootcamp class that left me the sweatiest I have been at that place yet.  It was a really great workout and it lasted for a short 24 minutes!  Not that the 24 minutes were one bit easy, but ONLY 24 minutes!

About an hour pre-workout I ate a Blueberry Crisp Clif bar.  These are pretty amazing!

Bootcamp: 3 rounds, 1 min each station

• ab mat sit-ups
• plank hold
• rowing machine
• tire flip
• side steps
• shuttle runs
• kettlebell swings with side step
• jump rope

I am loving CrossFit a lot, but the problem I have been having is that the “regular” classes (where we do the prescribed Workout of the Day) are from 6:30-7:30. By the time I get home I never end up cooking dinner!  I usually each cereal after a class and wasting the meat and produce I bought for the week.

Today I had the idea that when I got home from school I’d cook dinner BEFORE class so it would be ready to eat when I got in from class.  This bright idea made my belly very happy.

Tonight I made chicken (which I marinated over night in Newman’s Own Teryaki) and whole wheat rice pilaf.  Delish!  I couldn’t take a picture because I am devouring as I type this post!

On tap for me tonight: Glee! and a Cozumel recap (well, depending Word Press will let me upload my pics…grrrrrr)!

Stay tuned!
