Yogatastic and Avocados
Oct 01 2008 10:06

No running yesterday, since I took in a yoga class last night. Because of rehearsal (singing) I am going to miss my usual Thursday class this week, which is quite sad! I love the instructor and the class! But last night's class was great too; different instructor, same studio. The class is tough because this particular instructor (Tuesday's) works on A LOT of core-centric positions, and my abs hate them! Yet, they are good for me, of course. :-)

Anyway, the class was great, and I am sitting up straighter and feeling it in my torso today.

Off-topic of exercising, I made a delish salad last night for dinner for me and the BF:

• lean, top round, trimmed fat, steak;
• creminy mushrooms,
• 1 jalepeno,
• 1 shallot,

all sauteed in olive oil (I have this great bottle of REAL e.v.o.o that comes with a squirt top, it's great!), chipotle pepper flakes, garlic and parsley

Served over bed of raw spinach as salad, added 1/3 of a ripe avocado and some shredded cheese, and, voila, taco salad! The BF even put some salsa on his. Yummy! Want to try it with chicken or shrimp next week!

The plan for tomorrow is to get up BEFORE work, hit the gym, do a few miles so I can squeeze in my 12 miles this week. I've got rehearsal tomorrow night, so that's not an option! It's either that or I've got a 5-mile run to look forward to on Saturday morning! Eek!!

Have a great day everyone!
