Harding TRUcK TraiL = GOING for IT

Pictures from 30k practice run on Harding Truck Trail in Silverado, CA (June 25,2010)

Such a Beautiful run!!
Took us a little under 3 hours. I felt super strong and could have run a lot faster up hill. On the way down i was getting dehydrated, didn't bring enough h2O along. Race was not complete without a BIG JAMBA juice : strawberry,banana with some orange juice smoothie and a little hemp granola! waHOO. RACE day: July 10th, wish me LUCK! :)

Paleo Key LiMe Pi

hi!
Sorry, its been a while since i last posted any news. BUT so much has happend.My friend Kristin and I ran the Harding Truck Trail yesterday, 30k run!! 17.5 miles and it was a little over an hour and a 1/2 up hill climb that never ENDS. It was an awesome and beautiful run with switch backs looking out into the mountains the whole entire run. Im going to be racing on the same trail July 10th for the Harding Hustle, im excited about it. I just need to bring more water next time for sure! So last time i mentioned i would give the Paleo Key Lime Pie Recipe so here it is:
For the Crust:
1.5 cups almonds
4-6 dates(no pits)
*Process until not quite nut butter
1/2 tbsp coconut oil spread all over pie dish
Dump and spread almond/date mix into pie dish forming a crust
PUT in oven at 350degrees for about 8 mins Inside:
lime zest from about 5 limes (2 tbsp)
1/2 cup lime juice(fresh)
3 eggs
1tsp vanilla
1tbsp agave nectar

FooDa for the day..

Ran about 11 miles last night, felt awesome, but I NEED to bring a water bottle with me. That's a no brainer. It took me a little over an hour and 20 mins, because i saw a friend and stopped to talk for a minute. My feet are doing awesome. Im so happy, they could really be setting me back. I have been icing a TON so that has helped a lot.
