Week #3 - Gonna be a Good Day!

Yep, already into week #3 of the training schedule I put together for my first half-marathon.  Today was a speed run, the weather was GORGEOUS and I did well. 

Starving when I came home so I threw together a wrap with some sliced turkey, homemade hummus, spinach and sauteed peppers and onions from dinner the other night.  A little strange, I know, but I needed protein and fast!  I'm thinking later when it's closer to noon, I'll break out that new blender and mix up a smoothie with some frozen fruit and Greek yogurt.

Dinner?  Hmmm, don't really know.  Guess I better think about that.  Have a baby shower to go to tonight.  So it will have to be something quick and easy.  I know I have a whole bunch of swiss chard in the fridge.  So I might just cook that down and have it with leftover sausage from the other night.

I'm still sticking to my goal to drink more water.  I have a 3 liter bottle that I fill up each morning and make sure that it's empty before I go to bed.  I think that's like 12 8-ounce servings or something close to that.  

WHO ELSE IS DRINKING A LOT OF WATER THESE DAYS AND HOW MUCH?  I know that Weigth Watchers changed their thing about daily fluids and said it DOES NOT have to be water, but for me, water seems to work better.
