I am a creature of habit. My keys are always placed in a
particular pocket in my purse, I wore Nike cleats for my entire soccer career, and
I tend to buy the same food brands my mother purchased. Just for the sake of
mixing things up I decided to venture out of my comfort zone and try a few new
things.
I started the change with my favorite item on earth: ice
cream. While Hagan Daz is my go-to ice cream brand I decided to give custard a
try. Man, oh man I’m glad I did! Consuming Snoqualmie gourmet honey and
cinnamon custard was probably the best decision I made all week long! Next time
I need an ice cream fix I’ll have try Snoqualmie’s caramel ginger snap custard (festive
too).
Beyond exploring new food products I focused on executing my
usual routines differently as well. Every week I make an effort to go to the
gym 4 to 6 times. When I’m at the gym I usually head straight to the treadmill
and run anywhere between 6-11 miles and then top it off with an abs workout. This
week I opted for a spin class followed by a kettlebell routine. Turns out that
is just what my body needed! I have been so sore the entire week! My hamstrings
are tight and my quads, which rarely get sore, are aching.
