January reflections

Training: Run 5k

As I was running this afternoon, I had a realisation that it is February already. Where did January go? Thankfully a quick browse through my computer when I got home reminded me of all the fun things we did in January (and alleviated any fears/panic that I had that I had wasted a month already....)

January started with a snowy trip to Japan...

Followed by a painful race...

BBQs...

Birthdays...

And burritos....

More races....

Bike rides...

Coffee....

A work trip to Sydney...

An Australia Day bbq....

And finished with a birthday!

In fitness news, I apparently ran 67.5km, biked 46km and swam 7.5km. Whoa!!! Sounds like a lot when you add it all together!

So it seems I did fit a lot in this month! Here's hoping February is equally as exciting.

Training

Tonight I headed out for a run – this time a speedy 5km.

I made sure I strapped my knees. I have previously suffered from an overuse injury and don’t want the same to happen again.

Dinner

I returned home HUNGRY and decided on another vegetarian dish for dinner - Lentil Korma Curry.

I am not a vegetarian, but sometimes I just don't eat a lot of meat. I guess this is one of those times (much to Mr BBB's dismay).

I didn't follow a recipe, as such. After heating the korma paste, I added a mixture of broccoli, carrots, zucchini and mushrooms to the pan.

Followed by some light coconut milk, and a can of brown lentils.

Then it was just a matter of letting the mixture simmer away for 30 minutes or so until some of the liquid had evaporated and the vegies were nice and soft.

At the very end I stirred through some fresh coriander, and served the curry with a serving of brown rice (again to Mr BBB's dismay!).

I am loving these bowls that we picked up in Japan!

                  

Now I am off to watch some trash tv do some really important things…

Happy baking :)
