Beets

Has it really been over 4 months since I last posted? Way too many changes have happened in that time. My brain is already frantic. So, you get a post on beets. Because, why not....

My beets went bonanzas after I finally thinned the poor creatures and then we had a spate of rare rain showers. And I had no idea beets could look like this. It was ridiculous. So I decided to harvest all of them. 

Some were still tiny, but I got a couple huge ones. Aren’t they so pretty? 

I sat there for a while separating the dead/yellow leaves (compost) from the super-hard stalks (compost) from the green leaves from the actual beets. The beets are in a bowl awaiting whenever I get around to making my special roasted veggies dish. Never had beet leaves before. I Googled it to make sure I wouldn’t poison myself, then cooked them the same way I would’ve cooked kale (olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and basically stir fried it). Though, I cooked separated the green leaves from the harder stems and cooked the stems for way longer before adding the leaves in at the end. WASH them. I had hosed them down outside, but they were still ridiculously full of dirt when I washed them again in the sink. 

Made some shrimp, steamed corn, and rice to go along with it. Ended up being surprisingly good! 10/10 would make again.

I want to plant beets again. Definitely going to plant way less and thin out way earlier. I’ve learned my lesson. Trying to decide if I want to use a grow bag again (ease of harvesting) or straight into the ground (way more space). We’ll see.

If you were watching SHOCK NutritionFacts [Tm] on our Instastories.... you know the topic of BEET JUICE & ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE! . . Current research has indicated there is a correlation, particularly in increasing performance of cardiovascular endurance athletes. . . Beet juice is high in an inorganic nitrate, increasing NO Nitric Oxide in the body and thus increasing blood flow, gas exchange and efficiency in movement. This means increased performance when training/racing distances by prolonging the feeling of fatigue and exhaustion. . . For more info on this, stay tuned for the upcoming blog posted tomorrow on the 7 supplements being studied as beneficial in Sport Nutrition 2018. . . #beetit #beetsforhealth #shockperformance #athleteeating #healthyfoodforathletes #sportnutritionfuel #sportnutritionfacts

Throwback Thursday, to September when i set a new parkrun pb. It was also the first time I seriously thought about a separate running insta account. I wrote a long post and got a great reception on both insta and fb. Full original text below #throwbackthursday Parkrun pacing event; is it okay to be disappointed with a pb? I should be chuffed, a new pb, nearly a minute improvement. However I really wanted to go sub 25. I’ve trained all summer for a sub 25. I even drank beetroot juice last night and this morning, to help achieve a sub 25! I’m sure on reflection a 25-something is a massive improvement from where I was a couple of years ago when getting anywhere near 25 seemed impossible. Running sub 30 took every sinew of my being to be alined. 25 minutes, I see you, I will get you. However today I tried, the 25 minute paced was nearer the front than I expected, so I started a little quick so I was on his shoulder. By the 1km marker he started to pull away from me! Gutted as I was I thought if I can keep him in sight, as I have fast finish, I could still do it. By the 2 km marker he was too far in front & just after pacer 26 came past me. It was a demoralising battle to keep 26 in striking distance. This wasn’t easy, but as we approached 4km I felt it would be possible to pb even if only a little one, as the 27 pacer hadn’t passed me. I pushed hard and when I got to the cricket pitch I knew I could catch 26. To my surprise I did and before the sprint. I glided past him with 200m to go and sprinted home. I thought I wasn’t going to manage to sprint to the line, but as a passed a couple of people one of the took exception to being passed 20m from the line and I could hear the heavy feet of a sprint behind me. I dig in and kept going! #runner #lonelygoatrunningclub #runnerscommunity #runnersofinstagram #instarunners #instarunner #adidasboost #hillysocks #lonelygoatrunners #ukrunchat #stravarun #tomtom #runstagram #pooleparkrun #poole #poolepark #dorset #igrunners #runningcommunity #instarunning #beetit #high5fuelled #benrunnerpants (at Poole Quay)
