New Running Shoes

I am absolutely LOVING my new Nikes.  I've been dying to get a pair of Nike Frees.  Finally got a version of them.  YES.  They rock.  Just need some fun/funky shoe laces to finish them off.  What better reason to work out than to sport a gorgeous  new pair of shoes??  Try it.  I highly recommend.

Warrior Dash!! Don't be scurrd...

Okay people.  Sign up for the Warrior Dash.  ASAP.  If you're in the DFW, come run with ME!!

I would by no means consider myself a runner.  I love physical activity, but running ranks WAY low on my personal preference list :)  If you're like me....SIGN UP FOR WARRIOR DASH!  It's running w/ a twist!  What's not to love about a 3.24 mile course with 11 crazy obstacles (mud, tired, hills, water, etc) scattered throughout that you can conquer in the company your friends!?

I've never done it, but have wanted to get into Adventure Racing for years.  Maybe this will be my big start?  I'll let you know how it goes...

Seriously though.  Sign up.  I can't think of a cooler/more social way to burn some calories!!

Grilled Chicken Apple Spinach Salad

 This is a great dinner for those of you honoring your "carb curfew".  It's bursting with freshness, while providing a mouthful of nutrients AND deliciousness!  The greens are offset by the sweetness of the apple and the carrots give it a nice but subtle little crunch.  YUM! :)

Grilled Chicken Apple Spinach Salad:

{serves one}

-3 cups fresh spinach

-1 apple peeled (yes, with a peeler)

-2 carrots peeled
-1/2 cucumber sliced super-thin

-1 grilled chicken breast (season the chicken to keep from needing a dressing!)

- toss in bowl and ENJOY!  

**TIP:  If your chicken isn't nice & juicy, the salad may seem a bit dry...even with the apples!  Add a tsp or so of balsamic or red wine vinegar to moisten it up!
