last week, i made a red velvet layer cake. yum! it was sweet torture trying to finish the damn thing (i had cake at every meal!) but finally, by saturday we did. on sunday, i went to my brother's house and he had an orange zest layer cake! it was 10 times better than my red velvet cake and unlike anything i'm sure my parents have ever tried. so i brought some home for them...and we're STILL trying to finish up the leftovers. it's great...but oh so bad. i do not recommend the cake diet.
on the running front, we did 1.5 miles today. i'm not noticing any soreness afterwards or anything, but i am finding the sides of my calves to be really tight when running. it looks like i'm gonna have to dust off my yoga mat and get to doing some warrior poses. where is my yoga mat? i abandoned it sometime last summer...
p.s. how in the world do people fit in every aspect of working out? stretching, cardio, and strength training? i seriously find it hard enough to get in all my swimming and running workouts, much less adding more time for yoga AND strength training?

This diet sounds like something I could really get behind!! :)
I have never understood how people fit in all aspects of workouts. At least you've managed to add the swimming! All I can manage are the runs!
Yum! Both cakes look great.
I was JUST thinking the same thing last night. I ran and had a pretty intense core workout. Next thing I knew, I had been at the gym for nearly 2 hours! When you figure it out, let me know! :)
Yeah, finding the time to do everything is a constant problem. One way I find the time to do a little more is by having a high tolerance for a messy house. I's rather be in the gym than washing the kitchen floor, anyway.
Yeah, when you figure out that answer let me know. I'm the cardio queen over here LOL
Seriously, if you ever need help finishing red velvet cake, I know people. Well, person. I'm all about the cake diet.
Umm.. maybe next time you could just send some of that left overs up north if you are looking to share! That would be the polite thing to do!
I hear you on how-do-people-fit-it-all-in. I was never able to do it while working - something had to give (i.e. sleep).
And I just tried red velvet cake for the first time -yummy. But really, what the heck is red velvet cake???
I'm all about the cake diet...if I knew I wouldn't end up weighing 400 pounds by the end of the year, I would start it tomorrow.
As for workouts, I can't figure it out either. Right now I've just been focused on running but am really trying to get back into the gym for some weights and swim time. It's tough, though. I think the pesky job gets in the way.
