In my never ending quest to drink more water and stay hydrated, both in life and on the pavement, I've been adding lemon slices to my water bottle. It helps tremendously. But, I get tired of lemon water. I see Vitamin Water on the shelves of the grocery store and look at the ingredients. OMG, Water, crystalline fructose, vitamins, and a few random chemical concoctions like "natural flavoring". Uhh, no thank you. So I search the trusty web on how to make my own vitamin water and felt incredibly stupid. I *was* making vitamin water with no added sugar and real natural flavoring. I splurged on two water infuser pitchers and yesterday I did red raspberry water and today, mango. I should add here that I am from the east coast originally and mango is considered to be an exotic fruit, in other words, expensive, so I never ate one until moving to Northern CA. I wasn't sure how to cut it, if I should peel it, but since I ended up with some decent pieces that fit in my infuser, who cares, right? I will get more daring with my flavoring, I'm sure.
This was me today, hot, sweaty and pushing hard. I got called into work last night to help for a few hours and was afraid it was going to screw up my run time, my me time, my I am Fierce time! I had to run later and it was hotter but I ran. I start my work stretch of 6 nights tonight and time management will be extra important to get my workouts in.
