Murphy is rockin’ the one-legged sit lately.

Look at this dog! He’s so weird.

Ok, the pug is annoyed.

I guess I snapped too many pictures of the One-Legged Wonder.

Breakfast

This morning’s breakfast was a toasted blueberry Bagel Thin with sunflower butter spread on top. I haven’t seen the blueberry flavor in stores yet, so I was psyched that the Thomas folks sent me some to sample. They’re delicious and a nice change from the whole wheat flavor. Plus, I typically enjoy sweet foods for breakfast.

With breakfast, I also drank a smoothie made with iced coffee, frozen banana, vanilla protein powder, and soy milk.

Workout

After breakfast, I got dressed to exercise. I had planned to do a speed workout, but I just wasn’t feeling it, so I headed to the gym instead. There, I did a combo elliptical + treadmill workout:

  • 10 minutes: elliptical
  • 10 minutes: power walk on treadmill
  • 5 minutes: easy run on treadmill
  • 10 minutes: running intervals on treadmill (1 min. sprint; 1 min. jog)
  • 10 minutes: elliptical

Total: 45 minutes

I haven’t done a workout with two different cardio machines in a long time, but it’s a great way to mix things up. It’s also a lot easier to do in the summertime when the gym isn’t as crowded.

Snack

After the gym, I was hungry for lunch, but it was only 11:00, so I made myself another iced coffee mixed with protein powder and soy milk. I <3 iced coffee.

Lunch

A little while later, it was time for lunch. The One-Legged Wonder kept me company in the kitchen while I chopped veggies.

He was rewarded for his efforts.

I made myself a big salad with tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, celery, crumbled feta (from my friend Bridget), and Goddess Dressing drizzled on top. It was a great salad.

Now, Mal, Murphy, and I are off to the dog park. The pug has a lot of pent-up energy and needs to run it off. I think Mal does too. The two of them have been running around the house yelling (Mal) and barking (Murphy & Mal) all morning long! It’s never a dull day in our house.
