Day 49: Fajita Fiesta!

by Jess on March 22nd, 2010 in All Posts

I finally made my fajitas! The marinade was a concoction of a bunch of things and it actually worked out! I prefer beef over chicken but since we didn’t have any beef flank lying around, I stuck with chicken and it actually turned out quite juicy.

I also had an amazing workout since I went with my friend COLIN (I know you’re reading this!) to go lift some weights. It was so beneficial having a spotter since I could do the inclined bench press and max myself out without fear of the ball falling on my face and killing me. Yes, I have absurd gym fears.

But back to food.

Did a mile warm-up before lifting. Went back to the gym in the afternoon and did a 20-minute run. Partial sprint, partial run. I think the fastest pace I was sprinting at was 7.2 and I lasted 2 minutes at that speed before I took a brief recovery.

Completed Day 1 of my plank challenge. The third set was pretty difficult but I managed to finish! I didn’t think I could plank for 45 seconds but apparently, I can!

For those of you doing the plank challenge, how is it going?

And for those of you not doing it, why not?!
