7:15am - protein shake w/ vanilla powder, banana, pineapple chunks, water, 2 tbsp ground flaxseed, shredded coconut, ice. This shake rivals a pina colada! Whats everyone's take on ground flaxseed as a source for omega 3's? 2 Tbs has 2400mg omega 3's and mixes great in protein shakes - thoughts?? Love that I am getting some comments, I will respond in my comments section so check back.

5:45pm - dinner - coconut curry chicken with butternut squash and peas - added 1/2 cup brown rice to prepare for long run tomorrow (Yikes!) Feel bad eating rice, but I need to see if it helps energy level on longer runs. Will let you know tomorrow!

  1. Steph, Flaxseed is excellent from what I know! That smoothie sounds good. 4:17 on that WOD is excellent. I haven't done it yet but the sprints would kill me. One note on your early morning pre-workout meal. I would "safety net" some protein. I think keeping and gaining lean muscle will help you in many ways and there's no doubt your body will break down muscle for fuel. Getting just a little protein with that may help. Something to look into!
