Training: Body Pump

For my Aussie friends, did anyone catch the coverage of Busselton Ironman on One HD last night? As you may have guessed from my tweet (?), I was super excited to turn on the TV and find that it was on! For the entire hour, I was glued to the TV. I even got teary (much to Mr BBB's amusement) when one of the girls had to pull out due to bike problems, and again when the 'back of the packers' were crossing the line. The smiles on their faces said it all, and their courage was amazing. God I love triathlon, and the rewards of pride and joy it gives to the people who race them.

But I digress...

This morning's workout, Body Pump,  was one that is now becoming part of my weekly routine. I am thrilled to have weight training back in my life, as it was something I have missed over the last year with half marathon and half ironman training. All I know is that it makes me feel stronger, provides tangible improvements (through increasing weights) and, most importantly, provides one kick butt workout! Are you a fan of Body Pump?

Dinner

While my workout was rather planned and structured, my dinner was not.

I am heading to Melbourne tomorrow to, amongst other things, watch some tennis action at the Australian Open! So tonight it was all about clearing out the fridge.

So what does one do with a fridge full of leftovers?

Make a random ugly plate, that's what!

Leftover EmSPAMadas and spaghetti ‘meat’balls.

 

Plus a side of roasted  carrots and cauliflower.

Random…yet delicious!

Although I cant help but feel that it needed a little green?

So, as I mentioned,  tomorrow I am heading down to Melbourne for a weekend of tennis watching! To save a little money, I am hoping to take a picnic lunch to share amongst our group.

Do you have any good ideas for what to include in our picnic bag? The weather looks like being quite warm so I don’t want to take anything that will spoil…

Happy Baking :)
