Ultimate workout goal: completed!

Today (6 July 2013) I completed my ultimate workout goal of running 10K. You cannot believe how good it feels to know that I did it. No walking, no resting, no quitting. And it felt so good today, I didn’t have this: “Omg, I’m dying right now!” moment even once.

The temperature was right, the sun was already setting, at first there was strong wind but most of the time there was a gentle nice breeze. Perfect weather.

Thursday was carb-up day, in my world this means a handful of berries from my garden and a handful of walnuts mixed with almonds. This ended up in gaining water weight but carbs go to glycogen and glycogen gives you energy to run. Proven point right here.

So all the base was there and I reached my goal. Yay! 🙂

Brunch (11.30 AM)

I had a really long day on Thursday and got to bed 30 minutes past midnight which is very late for me. So I slept till 10 AM and had to walk the dog so breakfast actually became brunch at almost noon.

Instead of my regular breakfast I added my lunch-time ricotta snack to my brunch since I knew I wouldn’t have any time for lunch during the day.

Main breakfast:

  • 2 eggs

  • 20 g of sour cream

  • 30 g of cheese

  • 10 g of homemade mayo (blog post with recipe here)

  • 20 g of bacon

  • one homegrown cucumber

  • one homegrown tomato

Extra:

  • 100 g of ricotta

  • 20 g of sour cream

  • 5 g of cocoa

  • sweetener

 

Snack (3 PM)

As a snack I had a piece of cheese and salami sausage, didn’t have the time to take a picture.
 

Dinner (7.30 PM)

  • 200 g of stewed broccoli-cauliflower with cream and cheese

  • 20 g of homemade mayo

  • 175 grams of ovenbaked chicken

  • 2 home made protein balls (blog post coming soon!)

  • 10 g of smoked white fish (not on the picture)

  • 3 almonds
