So, I’m back to my make-ahead breakfast kick, hoping that this will encourage me to wake up and exercise. With the sun coming up later now, morning workouts have been a losing battle for me. But in the words of Tim Gunn, it’s time to “make it work!” I love having chia pudding in the morning because it makes for a very light breakfast. I usually make vanilla chia pudding, but this time, I added some pureed mango to switch up the flavors. I used frozen mangoes, which I thawed in warm to hot water for 10 minutes. I just haven’t found any great sweet mangoes lately! I am much too disorganized with my life to post any sort of workout schedule on here, but here are my goals for the coming week:

Finish a long run (9 miles)Run for pace onceGo for a casual, short run before boot camp classAttend 2 yoga classes (one being the 6:30am class)Get to bed by 11:30pm (this is going to be difficult)Eat well and be mindful of late-night snacking (quite difficult considering all the free See’s Candy I acquired recently)Smile!

Who knows whether I’ll be able to accomplish these goals, but I’ll try!
