Cowtown Half Marathon is Almost Here

The last time I worked out was Wednesday, with EnduraLAB. Mid-run, I started experiencing discomfort. Dakota feels like a rock. The only way I know how to describe it, in the most lady-like-way is -- things feel low. I feel good enough to run, today -- but I think I should just wait to run tomorrow or Sunday, during COWTOWN.

Don't ask...

Speaking of Cowtown, I'm so freakin' excited! This is my playlist. I like to listen to my music in shuffle mode. When I work, I like to listen to mostly indie rock or folk music. When I run, I prefer a mixture, but mostly rap/hip-hop and pop. You'll see an eclectic mix here, everything from indie - Of monsters and men to rapper - Kanye West. Sorry, if the playlist is fuzzy, if you click the image, you can see it better.

Where you can find me on Sunday 
I'll be running the Cowtown Half Marathon, just look for the pregnant runner. I'll be in Corral 2. How did that happen? There will be an official pacer in my corral, his pace will be 9:10. No, thanks. You'll see me hanging with the slow-pokes and I'm okay with that. When I registered for the half, I don't recall, putting my expected finish time, I think my time was estimated based off of previous races, I ran. Honestly, I belong in Corral 4 or 5, but I'll just go where my bib says and fall back in the pack, when the gun goes off.

Tomorrow, I plan on spectating the 5K and 10K race.

Crunchy & Salty Snack
I made homemade plantain chips. It was really easy. I put a spoonful of coconut oil in a pan, sliced 'em, fried 'em and sprinkled them with sea salt. Next time, I will coat them with oil and bake them. Cheyenne and I loved them!
Plantain Chips
They didn't make good left-overs. I stored them in a ziploc bag, but the next day, they tasted soggy, like stale french fries.
Plantain Chips '
I may have to bake or fry them longer or just plan on eating them fresh, right out of the over or pan.

This was my Friday Brown Bag, special. Fresh Veggies, hard boiled egg and apple slices.
