Menu and Miles

Please visit OrgJunkie for more menu inspiration.

I am trying to recreate some sense of order around my home, so I am going to begin with my week's plan of menus and miles.

Menus

Breakfasts:
peanut butter toast
fruit/spinach/protein smoothies (They taste way better than they sound!)
pumpkin muffins
waffles
oatmeal or cereal

Lunches:
leftovers
pasta salad
soup and salad

Suppers:
Friday:  veggie burgers (I bought the patties from Costco.)
Saturday:  white chili
Sunday:  15 bean soup
Monday:  mashed potatoes, lentil loaf, peas
Tuesday:  taco soup
Wednesday:  burritos and Mexican rice
Thursday:  black bean cakes, quinoa salad

Miles:
I still have several more days until I am cleared to run.  The official date is November 9 (three weeks post surgery).  I may or may not run one day early.  I have a busy day planned for Friday, and I am not sure that that will be the best day for my latest running debut.  Prior to Thursday or Friday, I will walk.

I walked only 7.68 miles last week!  In three separate sessions (2, 2, and 3.68--which took me one hour!).  My goal for this week is to walk 30 minutes to one hour each day, Monday-Thursday.  This week's actual marathon training plan (for my January Disney Marathon) is 37 total miles with a medium run of 8 and a long run of 17.  Ha!  My modified, realistic goal of total miles this week is 10.

Even though I am only walking, and walking very slowly, the exercise makes me feel so much better.  I have never regretted a workout.  Never.  I only regret the days that I don't make myself get outside or on the treadmill and do it.

So that's my goal.  10 miles.  I hope I can post next Saturday or Sunday and say that I met my goal.

You set a goal too!
