What's on your Monday Menu, RNYers?

Good morning and happy monday. I'm nowhere near ready for this week. I ran my first 10k since last November yesterday. it's the first time I've run since February. It was pretty much a mistake. It's a crazy hilly course and now every single muscle in my body hurts. Maybe I should have run a few miles before yesterday to prep. Ugh. also, the Jewish High Holidays started last night. I typically do not work the holidays, but with the new job (things are not going amazingly well) I figured I needed to be here. I told my boss that i was unavailable yesterday and yet she was emailing to talk about a case. I definitely do NOT work on Yom Kippur (the day of atonement), but I can't imagine that's going to go over well. Anyway, food choices were not the best yesterday, but today is another day.

QOTD: Honestly, I have no idea. I watched the news last night, but there was a high speed chase and the news was dominated by that. Hmmmm, the Dodgers winning 106 games, the Rams losing and a discussion re whether the Clippers or the Lakers are more likely to make it to the NBA championship. That's all I've got.

My plan:

B: Costco egg bite

L: tuna salad and a 1/4 c. kugel (I should most definitely NOT eat this because of the noodles, but I'm a sucker for Jewish cooking and I make an AMAZING kugel)

D: steak and salad

S: latte with organic high protein milk and 1/2 an apple if I force myself to go to the gym

Yay for the 10K! I can imagine the soreness if you just jumped into it but kudos for doing it. I would have chickened out.

thanks! The soreness is unreal. It was to benefit the LA Dodgers Foundation and is at and around Dodger Stadium. The area is crazy hilly. Miles 2 and 6 were straight uphill. I ended up power walking those as I swear it took me less time than running them. The downhills allowed me to pick up speed but my shins are screaming today. Days like this I miss not being able to have NSAIDs!!

That's what I call a WOG, I jog the downhills and flats and walk the uphills, hence a WOG! I don't think I can ever run uphill.

I love kugel but haven't made it since surgery. It'd be too dangerous to have in my house!!

they actually finished almost all of it last night. All that was left really were the pieces that fell off when it was being scooped. So i measured 1/4c of that and will feast at lunch.

Shana Tova!

I can't believe you did that run! You impress the crap out of me...

So sorry that the new job is not perfect--you deserved perfect!

Congrats on the run! I hope work gets better.

Way to go Stacy! Sorry you are so sore. You deserve an amazing massage - treat yourself!!

Good morning~I am ready for another week! I do enjoy having time off, but I do much better on a busy schedule head-wise - I'm more focused. Went to Target yesterday to get a dog collar and ended up spending $175.00 and it all fit in ONE bag. I keep reviewing the receipt, but it's correct. DANG - that's crazy!

QOTD - A car crash, a power outage, HS principle resigns...nothing exciting today!

Accountability - Good! Craving salt though - does that mean anything?
