A Morning Stroll

on June 6, 2010

I grabbed Kath for a morning stroll.

I really wanted to move my legs before we get into the car to drive 7 hours back to Florida! But I wasnâ€™t in the mood to RUN, so Kath agreed to walk with me.

We did 45 minutes at a fast clip around her neighborhood. At least I got some blood flow to my glams!

Pre-workout smoothie:

Kath and I split the following mix:

Big handful kale
1.5 frozen bananas
2 cups coconut milk
1 scoop Vega Vanilla Chai
1 tbsp Scharffen Berger chocolate powder
Granola to top it off

And afterwards, some of that delicious cinnamon bread with buttah:

Delicious.

Time to hit the road, Jack!

That bread looks amazing! GH in Charlotte is seriously the BEST! I have one about 15 minutes from me in Greenville, SC but it doesn’t compare to Charlotte..

Safe travels!

I love going on fast-paced walks! I always do speed walks with my mama when I’m home 🙂

Have a safe trip back!

I love morning walks…I just wrote about my favorite one that I hope to be doing later this week at my parents summer home. It definitely seems like you and K have had a great time together!

I love walking 😀 I can’t run, so usually I substitute it in for walking. I usually walk at a bit between 4 and 3.5 mph (so… 3.75 mph? ;))

Good luck with your drive! 7 hours… yikes! 🙁

That bread looks delish!!

A good walk is a nice change when you just aren’t up for a run. Hunni and I do that with the pups in the summer.

Glad you got in a great chance to move your legs before 7 hours.
