So, I had this whole plan in my head to write about how my training went and what I learned training for my second “5 half marathons in 5 days” series, but my body has had other ideas. Apparently it’s ready for taper. I’m exhausted. I’ve been falling asleep on the couch every afternoon and I’ve barely made it to Jones’ bedtime the last couple of nights. Lesson learned? Trading sleep for mileage takes a huge toll on your body. Luckily, I have just over a week until the series starts, so I’m trying to sleep extra hours every chance I get. Sleep. It does a body good.

Anyways, here’s a sample of my lunches from last week. Not included is a super yummy Mexican meal – no pictures because I’m sure my lunch partners would have thought I was odd. ;o)
More often than not, lunch seems to be salad with a veggie burger LOL. One day I went upscale and baked a chicken cordon bleu and had that with a salad. Fancy!
What do you eat for lunch? I’m obviously in a rut and need to branch out!


Sleep really does the body good! I know you had a very big goal that you did accomplish so the lack of sleep was worth it in the end. At least it is taper week, you have to rest anyways 🙂 might as well nap while you are at it!

I’m horrible about eating lunch (breakfast too some days) every day. If I’m out and about working then I will find that it’s 3:00 and I haven’t eaten yet – never a good thing!!!
Glad you are letting your body rest before you start your 5-in-5!!

I eat a salad for lunch just about every single day unless we have leftovers. That chicken looks yummy!

I used to feel guilty catching a nap after a heavy training session. Now I’m convinced that it’s the only sensible thing to do. Yes sleep does a body good.

Yes, I have to eat 3 square meals a day, plus usually 1 snack as well! If I graze, I never get full and get bottomless pit syndrome! Visiting from the WIAW linkup. Hope you are having a great week!
