My training Blog Continues!!!! (yet again)

I love to read everyones blogs they keep me so inspired so why I don't keep my own is beyond me. I feel I just love to run and that is all I have to blog about, oh and of course all the people I love to run with. With nothing to train for recently and nothing coming up I have just been putting in the miles each week, lots of treadmill and early morning runs as the kids are getting sick of kids gym and its to hot to go mid morning. Life is good, running is good!!!

I do have a great recipe for some protein bars to share with everyone as they are super easy and pretty tasty.

1 Cup Dry Oatmeal

5 heaping spoonfuls of peanut butter (any kind is fine, I used the choc flavored:) very good)

2 or so TBS of Flax seed

1 cup dry non fat milk

1/2 cup water

5- 6 scoops protein powder (I like vanilla flavored)

1TBS vanilla

raisins, cranberries, almonds, whatever you want to add,
I added a bit of flavorless fiber powder just for the extra boost of fiber in your day!
I portion them into balls about 18 per recipe and put into small baggies and press them down, store in freezer or refrigerator as the will go bad with the milk. About 100 calories per bar!
