Week 6 Day 4

I will start off with a review of yesterday's crockpot chicken chili and the recipe!

I have tried making a chicken chili recipe before, and did not like the recipe. It tasted like a really chunky chicken soup, and while this isn't bad per say, it was not what I was going for.

So, thanks to Pinterest, I located another recipe and gave it a shot.

Here is the recipe


I left out the Cumin, and got just plain diced tomatoes with out peppers. I also omitted the onion, as my husband doesn't care for onion or spicy food. 

We agreed that it was good, but could use more beans, maybe a can of chick peas (because we both love those) and some sausage. So I will add those the next time I make this!

Lunch and breakfast for today:

Kiwi and raspberries, clementine, chicken chili, sugar snap peas, red bell pepper, grapes, rice and avocado, walnuts, cashews and some chocolate covered raisins! And Coffee. 
Dinner tonight will probably be left over BBQ chicken or chicken chili.

In other news, I have decided to run a 5K this summer at the Wild Animal Sanctuary, which means I will be supporting an awesome cause and running my first 5K ever!

I've run on the treadmill three times now. The first time I timed myself to see how long it takes me to run a mile. It took 20 minutes, but I also started out slow and was messing around with the incline.

The second time I ran I only ran a mile because my legs started to cramp up. I still managed to run a full mile and it took me 15 minutes 15 seconds.

Yesterday I had a half hour at the gym and pushed through the leg cramp pain to see how far I could run in a half hour. I maned two miles, and did the first mile in 14 minutes 30 seconds. Not bad!

My legs hurt today, but I am going to try another run tonight.

With the cool down, I spent 35 minutes on the treadmill and went a good 2.3 miles. Woot!
