FIRST MILES!

Hey POTM Challenge Participants I have created a little logo for you all to use! Feel free to snag it and use it on your blogs!!! Check mine out on the right upper corner.

I was so excited to get up and run this morning and add my first miles to POTM!! I haven’t been able to run alone early in the morning because of the darkness, but with the time change I was soooo ready! I woke up at 6am and did a wonderful 4 mile tempo run!

• Distance: 4.0 miles
• Duration: 33:48
• Mile 1: 8:28
• Mile 2: 7:55
• Mile 3: 7:20
• Mile 4: 8:45
• The Burn: 414 calories

I miss speedy workouts of my own! I know I would do them with my cross country team, but I was more focused on their goals then my own. It’s nice to be on track with training!! I only have four more weeks until my Santa Barbara Marathon :).

After my run I made a delicious bowl of Pumpkin Oats in my new bowl.

• 1/3 cup oats, soy milk, water
• Half banana
• 1/3 cup pumpkin
• 1/2 tbsp flax seed
• pumpkin spice + vanilla
• Sprinkle of mixed nuts
• Spoonful Homemade Pumpkin Butter (this Pumpkin Butter is AMAZING)

I also made an egg for some extra protein!

Loving the LIGHT! 

QUESTION: Why do we have Day Light Savings??? I have heard so many different answers thought I would hit all of you up for some answers 🙂
