Tonight in The Fiercest Vegan's kitchen is meal prepping some @thedolcediet inspired breakfast burritos. Replaced the eggs with tofu and left out the onion (as I dislike onion 😂). Made up a few on the go so I can freeze them and warm the up. Breakfast is so important to me as I'm always either training first thing in the morning or working early morning starts. Great blend of carbs, protein and fat to get the day started! Also keeps things interesting...something I need to help me stay on the healthy grind. (Of course I had to taste test!) . . . . . #grrrlarmy #teamlycan #teamstc #thelivefreemovement #food #veganfood #veganism #dolcediet #mealprep #burrito #breakfast #brunch #homecooked #foodie #vegansofig #plantpowered #nomeatathlete #health #nutrition #iifym #veganiifym #love #passion #active #weightloss #journey #muscle #veganrecipes #vegetarian #athlete

Ran my first official 5k race! The Salvation Army Christmas in July! I've generally run two 5k's a week since January (sometimes more, sometimes less depending on my schedule), so the run was enjoyable, and it was nice to be out with other runners. My time was a little faster - running with other people will always improve your time - and I killed the last half mile. This is my qualifying photo for #teampizzaracers btw!! Can't wait to put in more races and start getting my pizza patches 😜🍕 Things I learned from this first race - 🔺get there early for good, free parking 🔺stick with your normal pre-run routine 🔺chill out and enjoy it 🔺drink your preworkout a little earlier so you won't feel like you're going to pee your pants for 3.1 miles 🔺USE THE BATHROOM BEFORE YOU ARRIVE OR YOU WILL BE FORCED TO USE THE PORT-O-POTTIES AND THERE MAY NOT BE HANDWASHING STATIONS 😖😷🔺bring hand sanitizer PLZ 🔺keep your normal pace, but don't be afraid to improve your time if you're feeling yourself 🔺thank the police officers that are directing traffic🔺be friendly to the other participants even if they don't understand running etiquette (everyone was a beginner once)🔺let the watermelon lady at the Randall's booth HAND you your slice, or she will get upset because you used your possibly gross hands (I used hand sanitizer btw 🤓). Overall I had an amazing time, and I'm SO EXCITED for my next race!! A big hurray for achieving goals! 👏🏼😁 #vegansofig #Vegan #5k #christmasinjuly #laternerds #plantbased #plantpowered #veganprotein #run #cardio #hardcoreherbivore #happyherbivore #meatfree #meatfreeathlete #theanimalfreeanimal #iifym #veganiifym #macros #veganbodybuilding #musclesbybrussels #nomeatathlete #crueltyfree (at The Salvation Army of Greater Houston)

Haven't posted much about #Crossfit lately, so here we go! Did a 5x5 (two rounds of 85 and 3 of 90) before the WOD. I'm excited to go up in the coming weeks.

After a run, and feeling sweaty and accomplished. I don't like talking much about this fitness journey because I just want to keep my head down and continue working, but I like expressing a little bit from time to time, really just to keep records. I've decided to bump up my runs - anything over a 5k (3.1miles). If I have time during my run days, I'll do longer runs (4-5 miles), if I have less time I'll run about 3.5 or so. Crossfit has continued to get heavier, and I'm glad. I RX everything I can, and scale gymnastic movements that I haven't mastered, like box jumps and hand stands. I'm feeling so much more confident, physically, and I'm so excited to have started this. I'm glad to look in the mirror, or at a loaded bar, and think about how the last 4 months have yielded this much change - and be excited for the next! I take it one day at a time, which is how this stuff works. If you overwhelm yourself, you'll fail. Take it one WOD, one run, one meal at a time and always remember - Discipline is just choosing between what you want now, and what you want most. #vegan #vegetarian #vegansofig #veganprotein #plantbased #plantpowered #plantbuilt #herbivore #hardcoreherbivore #happyherbivore #meatfree #meatfreemuscle #meatfreeathlete #theanimalfreeanimal #musclesbybrussels #iifymvegan #veganiifym #iifym #macros #iifymgirls #crossfit #cardio #fitfam #run #veganstrongwoman

Today I ran the longest run in my entire life, and I had no rest breaks! When I run at my own pace, and with no time restrictions, I run slowly - so running is time consuming for me, but somehow I actually enjoy it. I never thought I would actually look forward to adding on distance during my run time, or just going on a run in general. Like, what is happening? All I know is that I'm getting better, and I'm excited and encouraged by that. I've learned that doing short, mid-run stretches will elongate your comfort capacity, and that finding good music, or in my case podcasts (@mortifiedshow - @goodjobbrain - #musclesbybrusselsradio), WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. I've actually lengthened a run just to finish a story telling podcast - what kind of crazy person keeps running when they don't have to?! I used to think of runners as almost other-worldly, and in an elite group I would never be a part of, yet here I am, almost running a 10k in one run just because I want to see my current threshold. I would have finished a 10k today, but I was getting hungry, and that's a no-no when working out. Here's to more miles and awesome podcast stories! #vegan #Vegana #vegano #veganiifym #vegansofig #veganprotein #whatveganslooklike #plantbased #planteater #plantpowered #musclesbybrussels #meatfree #meatfreemuscle #meatfreeathlete #happyherbivore #hardcoreherbivore #herbivore #herbivoreforlife #vegetarian #iifym #iifymgirls #iifymvegan #macros #crueltyfree #crossfit #fitfam #run #running #cardio #theanimalfreeanimal #fattofit

Since I live no where near @homegrownsmoker, I had to do my own riff on their insane burritos - nooch mac and cheese burrito with broccoli and @gardein porkless bites. How did I do?! Also - this totally fits my macros. P: 33 F: 9 C: 82 Now I'm gonna go take a nappy nap. 😋😜😴 #vegan #Vegana #vegano #veganiifym #vegansofig #veganprotein #plantbased #planteater #plantpowered #meatfree #meatfreemuscle #meatfreeathlete #musclesbybrussels #happyherbivore #hardcoreherbivore #herbivore #vegetarian #macros #crueltyfree #crueltyfree #iifym #iifymgirls #iifymvegan #theanimalfreeanimal

Went on a 4.1 mile run today - longest I've ever run at one time! But I took a short break at 2.1 to see Mimi and my Turkey! Also my new fav shirt to run in - turns out insulting tanks improve my runs somehow. 😜👽💖#vegan #Vegana #veganiifym #vegansofig #whatveganslooklike #tiatime #plantbased #planteater #plantpowered #meatfree #meatfreemuscle #meatfreeathlete #veganprotein #musclesbybrussels #happyherbivore #hardcoreherbivore #herbivore #macros #iifym #iifymgirls #iifymvegan #run #running #cardio #crueltyfree #crossfit #theanimalfreeanimal #fitfam
