SWEAT IT OUT

“In mind's special processes, a ten-mile run takes far longer than the 60 minutes reported by a grandfather clock. Such time, in fact, hardly exists at all in the real world; it is all out on the trail somewhere, and you only go back to it when you are out there.” 

― John L. Parker Jr., Once a Runner 

To be honest, I haven't ran all week! I have been a cycling fiend, per usual..and after having done a triple spin yesterday, I was really feeling it but still forced myself to run a nice easy 8 miler this afternoon! Central Park has some great running and biking paths, but I prefer the exhilaration of  running against traffic, in the streets amidst all of the madness! So I ran the perimeter, then tacked on a couple more miles on the West Side highway. It was an incredibly hot day, but nothing beats the feeling of sweating it all out!

After sufficiently rehydrating, I refueled with a SUPER-bowl that I made with kale, raspberries, blueberries, mango, hemp protein, ginkgo, ginseng, echinacea, Aloe Vera, micro greens, and bee pollen, and topped with bananas and raw granola (from one lucky duck, that is inevitably the best I've had yet!) I have been making these a lot lately because they are incredibly refreshing, filling, you can pack a good punch of nutrients in them, AND throw in whatever you have readily available!
I feel completely revitalized, and ready for my next run, which should be pushing 12. But for now...



Sweet Greens,
