Week 1 (part 2)

Did yoga, XT (30 minutes on the bike, then weights for arms & abs), and another 3.5 mile run.  Today's run was 5 miles near Road Runner Sports.

Week 1

3.5 mile run today.  Note to self: do not ever, ever eat an entire Chipotle burrito for lunch before running again.  Even if you give yourself 4-5 hours to digest.  What an unpleasant run!

First Training Run

Did a nice easy 4 miler!  So far everything feels good...we've been foam rolling diligently every night :)

Informal Training Continues

3 mile run today.  Official training (I decided to sign up for Team in Training, donate please, once my fundraising page is up and running!) starts this weekend.  My shins felt good but my quads are already sore..grr, need to get them stronger for all the hills in SF!

Here We Go Again

K and I ran two miles today...the first step in training for the Nike Women's Marathon this October in SF!  My shins were initially a little tight but it went away after the first quarter mile and I think that was more from not running for almost a year and a half.  We'll see how it goes this time around!  I also had an acupuncture treatment last week on my shins, courtesy of my bro-in-law (yay for marrying into a medical family!)  Time to bust out the running stick, foam roller, dixie cups, and Salonpas patches :)

Duh

This should probably have been self-evident, but toasting up bread crumbs in some butter smells...well, like toast.  Indication that I do not cook nearly enough emdub food? :)

On tonight's menu: tuna noodle casserole.  I have a weird craving for it.  My gomo (auntie on my dad's side) used to make it since my mom only makes Korean food.

Homemade Sushi & Korean Meats

Lucky us, we had S&I visiting us for the weekend from Hawaii since their cruise embarked/disembarked out of San Diego harbor.  Despite all the chowing they did on their cruise, they were ready for some good eats with us here in SD!  We took them to the usual, California burritos, Urban Solace, In-n-Out, handmade tortillas and Mexican food in Old Towne, and "I" even got a McRib sandwich from Mickey D's one day since they apparently don't have it out in Hawaii. On one very fun night though, S picked up some DELICIOUS uni from Catalina Offshore Products and we did a homemade sushi night, paired with Korean meats on the table grill!  It was all soooo good.  I am going to have to work on my sushi rice making skills...my first batch was an epic, epic fail.  The second batch, however, was just right!  Can't wait to do another sushi night!

I'm so glad we got to hang out w/ S&I...I'm sad they had to go home though...we love having fun couples to hang out with!
