As many of us Americans fall very short on meeting our recommended daily fiber goal of 35grams per day, here is a muffin that is packed full of fiber. And trust me, it doesn’t taste anything like cardboard. One muffin at 120 calories makes a delicious afternoon snack - either plain, heated in the microwave, or with a little nut butter smeared on it.

On Saturday August 29th my 2 teammates and I had quite the adventure…and workout while participating in the Oyster Adventure Race Series in Seattle. Finishing 3rd was a wonderful reward! It is a crazy challenge for the adventurist and the very fit!
Huge thanks to Recycled Cycles Bike Shop for the awesome road bikes which made our rides not only more enjoyable…but helped us earn 3rd place! Our bikes were perfectly fitted to us by the very knowledgeable staff member Andy Voight, and the store general manager Ted was awesome too! Recycled Cycles not only rents bikes, they also sell used and new bikes, as well as offer classes too. Check them out at recycledcycles.com.
The race began with a blind folded ride with bags over our heads on The Duck. I, along with one member of every other team (there were 80 teams total) were transported to a mystery location, while our teammates all ran from home base in lower Queen Anne to a 2nd location. After arriving at our mystery location (Palisades restaurant) we were given a passport telling us to run to Kerry Park to meet up with our teammates.
Our second leg (no resting in between unless you want to sacrifice time) was a mission to bike to the ‘Gum Wall’ and add our own gum then return to home base.

Here it is, your first marathon training plan! Before beginning this plan you should already be logging anywhere from 12 - 20 miles per week. It is very important you have built up a base before attempting to jump right in to this plan, otherwise you risk injury. And injuries are no fun! While training for your first marathon it is also important to listen to your body. It is ok to push yourself, but it’s not ok to over train. Get your shoes on and get out there…
