^^Pre soccer pancake breakfast! Fueling up!
I had an 11 am game yesterday and played another half with the team after us, all in 90-ish degrees. It was super hot, and I ran about 8 miles during the two games. Taking a rest day today! I drank a bottle of water enhanced with Vega Hydration followed by a Hydroflask of ice water, and then came home to enjoy this cold, refreshing smoothie bowl at around 2 pm. It included banana, milk, yogurt, frozen berries and Vega Coconut Almond.
My bum foot was on fire and throbbing after all the soccer on a bumpy, poorly kept field, so I iced it in the hammock later that afternoon and again that evening. Not a bad view!
It was such a gorgeous evening that T and I enjoyed cocktail hour on the deck with some cheese and crackers (because I was too hungry to make it to dinner!) and reading material : )
And for dinner, we made Blue Apron Spiced Beef Pitas with arugula salad.
We are still working our way through Westworld, although it’s getting quite complicated! (It doesn’t help that I fall asleep every time we watch it – eek!)
This morning I had to roll my foot all over this well-loved Yoga Tune-Up ball before I could get out of bed. I got this years ago, and it’s such a life saver if you have foot problems or pressure points on your back that need a good massage. I keep one in my car too!
For breakfast, I am having leftover smoothie (I made a ton yesterday) mixed with yogurt and granola on top.
Hope you all have a great start to the week!

I loved that Blue Apron meal. I will definitely make it again.

I use a lacrosse ball to roll out my foot similarly, it helps so much when I remember to do it!

Hope your foot feels better! I have a post-surgery bum foot that acts up too, so I can relate!

Is that a special sock for ice that you use?

I have a shin guard sleeve on and then an ice pack wrapped around my ankle. It’s the Peas kind from CVS, and it’s absolutely amazing for icing an ankle! I think it’s designed for neck and shoulder but I can wrap it tightly around my ankle and then secure with velcro.

Wine and cheese is the best, isn’t it? Especially with wonderful weather!! What a nice weekend!

In your cocktail hour photo, I noticed your cute shoes/slippers? Would you mind sharing the brand and style. Those are right up my alley. Thanks!

LOL I could never stay awake during that show either! But I finally did finish it and it was worth it 🙂
