On the Road Again!

Hello Friends!

It's been a crazy week - new job and a busy home schedule and it's not going to slow down. So, I'm taking a few minutes to share a challenge that I'm facing and hopefully an effective way for me to tackle it.

Wednesday morning, I leave for Chicago to work with some amazing people at the Shamrock Shuffle. Nothing like thousands of volunteers, 45,000 runners, and a finish line party with tons of beer. I'm excited to spend the week with friends working long days.

And therein lies the problem... nearly a week away from my regular schedule and fitness routine, and eating whatever is brought in for the Key Volunteers. I have some serious challenges to my clean eating plan.

What's in my tool box?

Thankfully, I've got my IsaLean shakes that will fit nicely in my carry on bag. I can toss those in, small baggies of almonds and stop by a local grocer for some fresh and travel friendly fruit like Clementines, bananas.

My hotel has a really nice fitness facility and I will stay on schedule by getting up for my 5am workout Friday and Saturday.

Making good choices when food is brought in will be a challenge, but I'll do my best! I will let you know how I do, what my stumbling blocks are and the steps are to improve the next day.

The most important is that I remember that everything is a choice and that I'm human. If I'm learning, it's not failure.

"See" you soon!
