Happy Friday to y’all! It’s another gorgeous day over here in California. For all y’all dealing with cold and snow…I wish I could bottle up the sunshine and send it your way!
I was fortunate enough to have two days off in a row this week! Holla! Thank you Nina 😉 Breakfast today consisted of oatmeal and a cup of coffee. I stirred in some frozen strawberries to give my oatmeal some pizzaz! After breakfast I headed to the gym for a super sweaty workout. I started on the treadmill with this workout:
**I wish I could link back to where I originally found this workout but it’s just in my phone as a photo. If this is your workout, PLEASE let me know so I can give you credit!**
Honestly, I was never one who changed up my treadmill workouts. I would set it at 6.0 or 6.5 and then run. After my injury I wasn’t able to run fast or for very long and I found that changing up my the speeds lets me run farther for longer. I am a fan.

It’s one gorgeous day over here and I took full advantage of the summer like weather to bust out the barbeque and grill up some chicken and veggies. I marinated the chicken, during breakfast and while at the gym, in balsamic vinaigrette and popped it on the grill. Along side I tossed some zucchini in olive oil, salt and pepper and put that on the grill alongside the chicken. I microwaved some left over rice I had from dinner last night. Delish. Some Naked juice was enjoyed alongside! I usually don’t get to have such a large lunch, in fact I usually don’t get to enjoy lunch at home, so this was a real treat and an awesome start to my weekend! Hope ya’ll having an awesome Friday!
Reader Questions: What are your plans for the weekend?
Tomorrow I work, but Sunday I plan to take full advantage of Super Bowl Sunday!
Aww 2 days off in a row? Lucky!!! It sounds like you totally made the most of it, too! I totally wish I could just sit outside and hang out. I’m over this winter crap.
If I could send you some sunshine I so would!
2 days off!? Nice!! I am glad the weather has been so great for you. It looks like it should be in the 70s here this weekend, which is amazing 🙂
I am too! It’s been a good two days off! Amazing weather and Super Bowl weekend 🙂
I sadly have to work this weekend but I have a run date tomorrow I am pretty excited for.
I’m usually working the weekends so I feel ya! A run date is always a good start to the weekend, have fun! 🙂
Very nice post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I’ve really enjoyed browsing your blog posts. In any case I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again soon!
When I run on the dreadmill, I end up changing the pace every few minutes so I don’t get too bored. 🙂
Oh, I love Naked Orange Juice. It is my favorite, but it is surprisingly hard to find in Florida.
I have no plans for the weekend, which is a first for 2013 so I’m welcoming a weekend of relaxation! 🙂 And I’m sure the boyfriend will make me watch the superbowl. haha
Naked OJ is amazing! Isn’t it so nice to have no plans? I love those weekends, enjoy!
I need some of that Cali sunshine. It’s freezing here in Cincinnati! Oatmeal for breakfast = the best. I always eat mine with peanut butter, bananas, and usually some other type of fruit. So so good!
Love pb in my oatmeal! Oatmeal should just come with pb, right?!
The combination of grilled chicken, veggies, and naked juice sounds like a winner! When I was reading that, it totally brought me back to the summer! I can’t wait for the smells and everything associated with the summertime!
This past weekend, I hung out with my family to watch the Superbowl!
I know, the whole meal just screamed summer for me…to bad it’s only February right I could definitely go for some summer right now!
