Disney Marathon Health & Fitness Expo

January 9, 2010

Yesterday, I woke up early and met up with Ashley to head to the Disney marathon expo. On the way we picked up the lovely Ryan and headed over to the Disney area.

I packed a portable breakfast to eat as we headed out to get Ryan.

Ginger green tea and an Oikos with berries. I brought the Larabar, but didn’t eat it. They had samples at the expo!

I had never been to Disney’s Wide World of Sports, so I was really excited to check it out.

Their were lots of people!

Ashley picked up her information, and was filmed!

  

After this he took a picture of us three, don’t know where that’ll end up but it was fun!

After picking up her bib number we moved onto the expo. This was my second expo ever and I enjoy the energy from the all of the runners!

I also love samples..

..and we sampled. I had a bite of an oatmeal raisin clif bar. I am not a fan of raisin in baked goods actually, but I loved this!

I also sampled an unpictured Clif shot blocks, SO much tastier then GOO!!! I know what I will be packing during my half!

Ashley picked up her goody bag and then we walked around. It was pretty packed!

We quickly found the Larabar table, we were pretty hungry so we munched. I broke into this beauty.

One of my new favorite flavors, tastes just like a peanut butter cookie! Mmmm!

We headed to the giant Whole Foods in Orlando(LOVE) for lunch..

I had a gift card so I spent more then normal on lunch.

For example:

My favorite..Kombucha!!

I wish I had more money to feed my expensive Kombucha habit. Sadly, I do not.

LUNCH!

I went crazy. I had some couscous with dried cranberries, some shitake mushroom tofu, roasted squash and zucchini, tempeh smothered with onions, a spinach and blue cheese salad with walnuts and three yucca con queso balls. Everything was amazing, the tofu though didn’t taste a lot like mushrooms and was cold. I did have a huge hunk of tempeh for the first time that wasn’t in chili form. I was scared of straight tempeh before, but I tried it and I really like it! I like the texture of it and how hearty it is. I will have to cook some up soon. My favorite were the yummy fried yucca balls, SO GOOD!!! I wish I got a huge box of those. Though, my stomach would hate me probably.

I had so much fun with the girls, but I was about to pass out. It was time to head home!

Once home, I ran some errands and then settled into a hot epsom bath which just soothes to the soul! I then gave Leo a bath, which does not..poor guy hates baths.

For dinner, I think I was sympathy carb loading for you all who are racing this weekend!

Pasta with leftover spaghetti sauce I pumped with some broccoli, I also added some fresh herbs from our “garden”(rosemary, oregano, thyme, and basil).

Topped with some fresh mozzy, YUM! Plus another couple pieces of bread. I just love crusty french bread.

Dessert was pretty decadent as well.

I added fruit, makes it totally healthy. I had two Ghiradelli white chocolate squares and a dark chocolate caramel.

Yummm.

We headed out to hang out with some friends who were in town since my good friends Keith & Amanda is getting married tomorrow! It was fun to hang out for a bit, but we were exhausted and headed home.

I had a snack before bed.

Mmm.

Well, now I am off to brave the SLEET(in Orlando…..) and run. Only kidding, I am running on the dreadmill. I have four miles on the plan today. Apparently even walking to our apartment gym is going to be painful. I don’t know how you guys ran a half today!! Congrats Katy!

I am off to tackle a busy day:

-Hopefully go to the blogger lunch or go see my mom in Sanford although I don’t have much time for either :-\

-I am handing out the programs at my friend’s wedding today, so I have to be there by 2:45!

-Then immediately after the wedding we are heading to Tampa to celebrate a very close family friend’s birthday.

-Then, after returning home late tonight, I am waking up early again to meet up with Ryan and head to the marathon to cheer our amazing friends on and celebrate afterwards!

Needless to say, their won’t be a night post tonight. Busy busy busy day!

I am SO excited for the wedding!! Happy wedding day, Keith and Amanda!!!!
