A few friends and I had originally planned to complete a quick circuit workout followed by a spin class this morning; however, after a 6 mile run and other late night festivities yesterday (Karl!), we decided to skip the circuit workout and jump right into spin. I normally try to avoid spin classes, or any group x class for that matter, because I always find myself glancing at the clock every five minutes out of boredom. I’d much rather run or bike outside. I do live in Orange County after all where the weather is perfect nearly every day. However, this particular spin instructor is really energetic and motivating and has such a dedicated following that in order to even stand a chance of getting in we had to come two hours early.
So, lo and behold, here I am, waking up at the butt crack of dawn to go to spin class. I started my day with wheat toast topped with natural chunky peanut butter and unsweetened, shredded coconut. I didn’t think I was such a fan of coconut, but this was delicious and just what I needed before my workout. I should have taken a picture, but seeing as how I was running late and didn’t want to be ousted for a spot in spin class, I thought it best to skip the picture. I know…I’m failing at this blogging thing already!
After spin, we went to our local farmer’s market where I picked up some fresh veggies and fruit. I also grabbed some tasty macaroons and spinach feta artichoke hummus. (<YUM!)
That’s it for my first post…stay tuned for more!
