GFTW 21: New Nutrition and Training Cycle! Bring it On!
Anyhoots, I'm really excited about this week for a few reasons. First, I can tell the heel is 'heel'-ing (just had to use that one). Second, I have my new training cycle which is my second to last til' Vineman. And lastly, I start my new nutrition plan with my former nutritionist that I've mentioned here before. So a lot of good stuff to be implemented.
But with all this good stuff, it's taking some serious planning.
Which brings me to my Goals for the Week:
Mom: Firm up summer plans for my kids. It's their last week of pre-school, and I have a few summer camp/friend and sport programs/teenager babysitting options to figure out.
Health: Implement my new nutrition daily intakes! I'll do this by making sure I plan out food to buy for week (check), and plan snack/meals the nite before. Additionally check in w/Tabitha (nutritionist) daily to give her feedback...(this is gonna be a BIG goal for me). I also plan to post some of the recipes, snacks, etc this week fyi;-)
Athlete: Do my corework part of my training. I always let this part of my program slack. But I'm not doing any more strength training til Vineman, so I want to make my corework it's replacement as far as priority.
Friend: Finally make it to a gal's wine club nite. I have yet to make one (sickness, kid's sick, early morning training, etc) so I have it marked down in the family calendar. it's a go!
Personal Growth: Wear one thing each day that makes me feel sassy! I've been having wardrobe depression (it may be from limping around in my Newtons w/gel inserts each day), so I just gutted out the winter wear in my closet, and put in some of my summer stuff. I wanna feel sassy each day.
That's it for me over here. I posted the pic from my first 3hr bike ride on Sat, bc I actually looked pretty good considering. This whole heel thing has made me focus on biking and swimming and it's kinda turning out to be a blessing. more on that later. Right now, I wanna know... what do YOU have going on for this week?

Once again, I'm inspired to be a better person this week by reading your goals. I actually have made some initial steps towards figuring out what my nutrition ratios are and tracking them. When I get the funds together, I am for sure contacting your coach, thank you so much for her addy. I wish we lived closer, my daughter needs a babysitting job and has experience with twins :). Good luck with your goals this week, please post a sassy outfit this week ;). HUGS!
Can't wait to read some recipes and see what you are doing with your diet!
Summers are hard on us parents, great weather but what to do with the kids... :)
This week, I'm taking time off work to be with Mom. I'm also making up for a slack week last week (spent time with Mom instead of running) and preparing to start some serious training next week.
Can't wait to read about some of your recipes. Good luck with your goals this week and have fun on wine club nite!
I've been out of town and not running and completely off my schedule. So my goal thsi week is to get back on the schedule and running!
Glad your heel is doing better...and you look awesome after 3 hours on the bike :)
First of all, I love the picture of you in your helmet...you look great:)
I could be using all of your goals as my own. I need to start watching my nutrition a little closer and I for sure need to step up my core workouts! Cheers for feeling sassy every now and then:) Have a great day Anne Marie!
I too need to finalize kiddo summer plans...just so darn busy this week!
I will live vicariously through you and your nutritionist...can't wait for tips/recipes and whatever else you can share!
Wow a 3-hr ride you GO!
Abrazos!
Have a great week.
