Goals for the Week: Running & Cooking

Happy Sunday People!


While Jason is outside mowing the grass, I'm inside drinking my cup of coffee and planning the menu for the week.  We have been a little lax with planning our menus so I thought I would pick something out for each day so I would have something to look forward to eating... and also refocus on my calories this week.  In addition to the pre-planned menu, I've been thinking of my fitness/running goal for the week.  Since I think I've talked my running buddy Kristina into running in the mornings outside with me, this should make it that much easier to meet my goals. 


Menu for this week: 


Many thanks to Skinny Taste and Cooking Light for my meal inspirations this week!!


Crustless Zucchini Pie - I think I'm going to do grilled chicken with this for some protein!


Spaghetti with mushrooms, garlic & oil - Also throwing in some chicken with this and either broccoli or green beans for my veggie


Turkey Meatloaf - Also going to do a side of veggies (either the green beans or broccoli), possibly some quinoa or cous cous as well... 


Fried Egg BLT Sandwiches - Who doesn't love breakfast for dinner?? I think we'll saute some asparagus with this one


Fitness Goals for this week:
Running: Two 3 mile runs and one 4 mile run on Saturday; I'm not going to focus too much on pace, but try to keep it on the fast side (depending on how hot it is of course...) 
Gym: 2 gym runs this week that do not involve running... I must start toning!!!


No excuses! I have to get excited about the long work week and I think this is how I will do it:)
