I think I bragged too soon about being back up in the double digit runs and how amazing that 14-miler felt last week, because I did a 15-miler this past Saturday and Oh. Man. did it hurt. I'm talking walk breaks and a 11:53 average pace. Ouch. I know that not every run is amazing, but this one was really rough.
I'm hoping tonight's half marathon training will boost my spirits again because even my scheduled 4-miler yesterday, turned into a choppy 2-miler. Maybe this just isn't my week.
On another note, I have been a pescatarian for more than a year now (January 2013 was when I started) and I think I'm about ready to take the next step into vegetarian land. I just read Mayim's Vegan Table and she talks about how even fish can be bad for you because they swim around in contaminated water and then you eat the contamination. Obviously, I won't just jump right into it, I'll take it slow. Right now, I'm seeing how much fish I eat normally, then I'll start to phase it out. I'm going to try to hang out there for a year or so, and then maybe look into the crazy world of vegan.
Between Mayim's book and The Vegan Stoner I don't think it would be that bad. I've made one of the Vegan Stoner's recipes awhile back (tofu tacos) and they were delish. I just ordered the cookbook and cannot wait to start trying more recipes!
