Morning everyone!
Well, if I thought yesterday’s weather was bad- today’s is 10 times worse! It is pouring rain out, windy, etc! Oh well, I hear it is supposed to go up to about 8 degrees celcius today so that will be a nice change. :)
Today is an off day from running, to rest my body after the past few days of fairly intense runs.
I woke up and stumbled over to my laptop- and searched some workout videos on You Tube for some cross training. :D
Here is what I did:
It was a tough 25-minute workout! It was a nice change from the regular treadmill. I still want to buy some workout DVD’s in the near future after I do some more research.
But, you can’t complain with technology these days- nothing like a free workout at your fingertips!

After my workout, I had a quick breakfast of Spelt cereal, pomegranate seeds, and Almond Breeze Milk as I blogged:
Did you know:
-
Pomegranate fruits contain polyphenols, tannins and anthocyanins – all are beneficial antioxidants. Interestingly, pomegranate juice contains high levels of antioxidants – higher than most other fruit juices, red wine or green tea.
This weekend was my first time trying a pomegranate…ever! I have had juice before but not the actual seeds. I took a photo session of how to prepare a pomegranate, which I will be posting in the near future!
I still am not hooked on the taste and texture (you are actually crunching through a seed!), but overall I do like it as a topping for cereal or salads.

- Road to Health Part V (b)- over lunch break
- Work (Boo!)
- Dinner
- Walking on treadmill (~2 miles)
- Blog 3 new beauty product reviews

See you later for My Road to Health Part V (B). See last night’s entry for part A as well as parts I-IV!
Hope you have a healthy day filled with great food and an active body!
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
