Good Morning friends,
Well as many people are running in the half marathon this morning like Sabrina, Katy, and Melissa to name just a few. We wanted to wish them all the best of luck in the race
We have been getting questions of why we are eating the foods we are eating before our race and we plan to share that with you all over these next few days.
We started our day yesterday with a few chocolate truffles and treated ourselves to some coffee.
Than we went to the hotel’s gym to do a easy 30 minute workout. We did a mix of walk, sprint, and easy jog. Then we did a little stretching. Felt great!
Back in the room we enjoyed a romaine grapefruit smoothie with some maca, coconut oil, sunflower lecthin, and msm powder. Delicious!!!! It got thick from the coconut oil so it turned out to be more like a pudding!
Again eating out of a jar just for Heather
Seriously one of the best ways to start the day!! Although it turned out to be our lunch.
Next we packed up all our bags again and moved into another hotel! Traveling with us can be crazy sometimes!
As we drove over to the other hotel we snacked on some raw crackers that we made before leaving NC.
This is our home for the next two days. This is the new tower at the Contemporary Resort.
By the time we unloaded all the bags again we got a little hungry. So Michelle whipped up some coconut yogurt with some spirulina, yacon syrup, and chia seeds.
Plus we sipped on some kombucha.
Then it was time to start making all the goodies for this weekend. All of our pre-workout, during workout, and after workout goodies.
Had to buy some more bananas though – the older sis wanted some of our treats!
She wanted energy too and didn’t want to be left out ! Love her!
These little bananas cost us $5.50!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Better be some good bananas!
Dinner – Round One
One jar of sauerkraut with hemp seeds
Round Two
One jar of fermented veggies (daikon, leeks, beets, carrots) topped with dulse flakes and tahini once again!!!!! Heather we are in love!!!!
Dessert was a few more chocolate truffles! YUM! Can’t get enough of these babies. Good thing we made a double batch.
Our older sister gave us a surprise!
Thanks sis YOU ARE THE BEST!!! It was a package full of marathon goodies to help get us get through the race.
Some water, epsom salt, hand warmers, hand bands, chapstick, nose strips, and kleenax plus a few more things!
Well time to go cheer everyone on and than Food Bloggers Lunch with a bunch of great girls. We are very excited to meet everyone!
We will check back in later,

dang those are some expensive bananas!!! What brand of spirulina do you use? Pretty sure you mentioned this before but I can’t remember or seem to find it.
We have gotten spirulina from a few different places, the two places we like are from Mountain Rose Herbs and Natural Zing. I don’t have a bottle with me at the moment, I can’t seem to remember the brand name.
Have fun at the lunch today. I can’t wait to see all the pictures!
One more questions for you lovely ladies – How do you make the kombucha tea? i’ve really been wanting to try it!
Jessica, thanks girl! We have done kombucha tea a couple of times on our blog, I will send you an email soon with the links.
