Final Celebration

by Lori and Michelle on January 11, 2010

Hey friends,

How is everyone’s Monday going? Thanks to everyone’s wonderful comments on our marathon re-capIt is so nice to hear from our readers!!!! We appreciate all your support.

Ours is going pretty well!!!!!!! Just a tad sore but not as bad as we were for our first marathon. Must be from the raw foods and smoothies! haha

After our  post-workout pudding and smoothie yesterday, we took an hour cat-nap. Than woke up starving. So we snacked on small of our raw crackers and flatbreads.

Had some of our older sisters roasted veggie soup

Ate some our raw racing snacks that we had leftover

No white sugar, processed, full of preservatives or white flour post race food here! Only the best things for our bodies to recovery from all the stress we just put on our bodies from running.

That was pretty much it for the rest of the evening. We went to bed pretty earlier. We did want some wine though we decided to wait till today to enjoy it!

Besides from feeling great we got to finally go see AVATAR! And it was awesome! We saw the 3-D Version! Avatar is definitely a must see movie. Even though it was a long movie and didn’t feel really long. Fantastic sound effects and overall great story. Love all the different messages throughout the movie!

After movie we headed back to the sis’s place and started getting things ready for our road trip again for tomorrow to head back to reality. Hard to believe the marathon is already over. All that training done with. Not sure if we be doing anymore races this coming year but you never know.  One thing we do plan on doing more is YOGA. That is going to be our main fitness focus.

Today’s Eats were:

Breakfast was yet another green smoothie.

Snack before the movie was some raw onion flatbread.

No lunch we watched Avatar instead!

Dinner was a huge salad! Salad was filled with all the delicious fixins we love so much like sauerkraut, fermented veggies, onion flatbread, and a homemade tahini basil dressing with some garlic :)
