Bring It, May

Yesterday was my final day off in my mini-vacation and how did I spend it?  At the grocery store, of course.  Actually, two to be exact.

There's a new Whole Foods opening in the north hills of Pittsburgh so I signed my mom and me up for a VIP pre-opening tour to check things out.

The store seems to be much larger than the other one in the 'burgh and has a pretty killer bulk section, but the drive is definitely farther so we'll see.  I was really hoping for a juice bar in this location but no dice.  Maybe the beer pub will make up for it!

After our tour, we were fed some garlicky kale, pierogies + pork sausage sandwiches.  I had to laugh when I heard the pierogies were made outside of Fitlhadelphia.  Pierogies are a big thing in the 'burgh, and let's just say Philly isn't.

Next on the agenda was Market District to get down and dirty with my real grocery shopping for the week.  I had a lot on my list and 20% off thanks to Foodperks!

Our meals this week include a morning oatmeal bar, turkey sandwiches, salads, hamburgers, buffalo chicken soup and asian noodle soup.  We'll be snacking on fruit, yogurt, almonds, peanuts and carrot-apple-ginger juice.

In other more important news, it's May 1, and that means it's time to bring it back.

That's right, folks.  Back by popular demand - The Run Challenge.  The rules are the same as they were in February.  You must run every day.  At least one mile to count.  Indoor, outdoor, doesn't matter.  And it's not for time.  It's for fun!  And to prove to myself (and yourself) that you can do anything you set your mind to.  Want in?  Leave a comment below or email me at swimbikerunningonempty@gmail.com and I'll add you to the mix in The Run Challenge tab above!  I can tell you from experience that it's a lot of fun and that you'll be surprised at how much you'll gain not only physically but mentally.

What are you waiting for?  Lace up those running shoes and hit the pavement!
