Runners High and Broccoli Binge

Why hello my little fitness and healthy guru's (I don't know what that word means...hopefully I put it in the right context, I am too lazy to google it.)

Time for another weirdness about me.......

I went through an entire bag (48 ounces from Costco) of broccoli in five days.

I wish I could tell you that I had someone helping me out on this but I alone completed the task.

I didn't even eat any on Saturday because we ate at my parents.  So, technically four days.

Please excuse the large amounts of sweat from spin.

I am covering my face because of the three volcanoes that have taken residence there, the forehead one (Mr. Everest) is still visible though.

Tonights dinner was brought to you by throwing into the crockpot every ingredient in the fridge and telling Billy it is a family secret recipe so that he thinks you are a good wife and spend time and effort into making him a home cooked meal.

We got some chicken, potatoes, carrots, salsa and taco seasoning.  Left on high for 4.5 hours.  Broc and clementines (my latest addiction) on the side.

The Spin-Playlist:  FYI I plug my ipod up to the speakers....I don't make a new CD every time.  I also speed up and edit the songs using Garage Band on my Mac.

Before spin I was feeling really tired and completely unmotivated to teach.  So.....instead of waiting to go until the last minute I decided I would go a few minutes early and run a mile before to get my spirits up even though I already ran in the morning.

It worked and i felt that Runners High from just one mile.  I am telling you:

Exercise gives you energy.......to be continueed in my next post muhahahah.

Do you experience Runners High with short distances?  Every Run? How often do you feel the high from running (or any fitness activity you do)

-I feel like 98.43% of my runs I feel some sort of high....sometimes ginormous, sometimes just itty bitty.  Either way, I have never regretted a run.

Do you have a fruit or veggie that you BINGE on?

-Broccoli and pears......I need to attend group therapy on this one. My skin is slowly turning green and florets are popping up on my face.
