This morning was my last training run!
That means that I’m as prepared for the tri as I’m going to get – eek! Running has never been my strong suit and it’s what I’m most nervous about, so I was glad I got in a full 5k run to better prepare me for Saturday.
I finished the 5km in 33:11, which isn’t as fast as I’d hoped to be able to run, but still better than nothing. As long as I try my best in the run, I’ll still be proud of myself 
I refuelled with the last of my Barbara’s shredded oats cereal with blueberries + soy milk. Now that I’m out of my go-to cereal, I’m not really sure what to do with myself for breakfast tomorrow.
After a few hours of class, I was more than ready for a break. I had to run around campus on some errands, so I stopped by Subway to pick up lunch. I’d been craving a sub since my roommate got one for dinner last night, so choosing my lunch location wasn’t too difficult 
I know that tuna is basically the worst one you can get, but it’s my favourite, so I don’t really care all that much. I got it on honey oat with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, pickles, white cheddar and a little bit of honey mustard. So delicious! I also had an apple and a little bit of chocolate, but they escaped the camera.
Apparently all this studying and tri training at the same time has been wearing me out, because I fell asleep in class again today! I’m hoping I can break this habit soon, because binder-marks on my face aren’t very attractive 
To try and wake myself up when I got home, I made a banana-raspberry smoothie inspired by Caitlin’s from this morning.
It was really hot out today and I was actually craving a nice, cold beer, but I’m trying to stay away from all alcohol until after my tri…
…so I had a smoothie in my “Beer” glass instead. That’s almost like having a beer, right?
Unfortunately the smoothie didn’t do much to wake me up, because I had a 2 hour nap right after. Guess my body needs the rest?
I wasn’t really in the mood to cook, so I had a plate of brie cheese + crackers and raspberries for dinner. There was a bunch of snackage as well, including more crackers, dried mango, and various chocolates.
My mom has been down in the US for the past while, and asked if I wanted her to bring me back anything from TJ’s. I asked her to surprise me with some kind of chocolate goodie, and she brought me back dark chocolate mint creams.
She knows me well These didn’t stand a chance.
Now that I’ve apparently gotten enough sleep to last me for the next while, I need to amp up the studying. Two more midterms in two days – I can do it!!
