there is a window of time after a hard workout during which your body uses sugar differently. don't ask me how, but it's good for you then. so! reason to run #2 (sanity-saver = #1) is the chocolate shake with peppermint stick chocolate chip ice cream. no kidding. (the sugar's fine, the unhealthy fat - oh well!)
These are happy pictures. Being allowed and encouraged to eat a sugary treat after a run is reason enough to start doing it again. Ok, sanity-saver ranks pretty high, too. You would make the perfect running partner.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a lovely idea! Sanity, definitely worth saving. Hope your training is going well.
ReplyDeleteYou EARNED a treat! I love how you have your camera with you, snapping along the way. Makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteYummy treat after a run would motivate me as well ... hmmm, or I may just got for the treat ; ) I am finally reducing my sugar intake ... went through a few days of headchaches, but now I am better and body adjusted to less sugar yaaay!
ReplyDeleteRight so I've got to start running. (Gonna have to a be a LOT of running).
