So my good friend and fellow health enthusiast Kristin has inspired me to eat raw with her for a week... or two. Or who knows how long we can make it. See she's been on the road for a few months doing baller away / audition rotations and rocking them. But that also means not necessarily ideal kitchens and food options. This is also the friend I was training for the marathon with, yet neither of us ran it. Lame. Half ironman in the spring???!!! I developed a stress fracture (fml) and she was just not here basically. It was a true delight having some companionship on long runs though :)
So for the raw food issue on hand. Starting with we are also allowing olive oil, vinegars, almond milk, protein powder, and coffee / tea. ER rotation with shifts around the clock, everyone has a vice.

So I stopped in at Stanley's last night to prepare for my first 4-5 days in fresh produce. My cabinet is also stocked with raw almonds and my freezer has a few fresh frozen sashimi grade ahi tuna steaks ready for the week. Yummmmm

| pineapple, grapes, crimini mushrooms, spinach |

| mmmmmmore fruit! |
 |
| farmstand apples! |
Just because we're eating raw to detox a bit should not by any means indicate our workout will be slacking. I'm about to head to gym to meet my lovely amiga for a 30 minute spin and 30 min "ultimate abs" class followed by a swim before we head off to orientation for our new rotation. Tomorrow I'm thinking some running / rowing / swimming and booty work ;). Wed: NO WORK!!! :) and looking like a 70 degree day. You better bet there will be a 50+ mile ride going down. Thurs: gym with K. Fri: maybe a barre class and a run.
And pre-workout a "green" smoothie! Frozen banana, protein, almond milk, spinach, and strawberries. Kale is always a great option too!
