This day I love.......

The world of running has had an interesting week.  This week saw the announcements of the London Marathon Ballot.  Those accepted received a Yes magazine with a Bee on the cover and those rejected got Spider-man.


So I was rejected from the London Marathon, but never mind I have an even better one to look forward to.  The Yorkshire Marathon is this weekend!

With every run I always start with a shake.  I blend together, almond milk, 2 banana, scoop peanut butter and a spoon of Cacao.  I find it really helps energy levels, particularly on longer runs.  

Running can present itself with numerous problems, one of which is where to put your essential items when you run.  By essential I mean keys, spare change and snacks.  My latest running companion helps with all this in the form of SmartShake.


The SmartShake features clever compartments at the end for storing snacks, keys etc and the container itself for storing your shake.  You can store several supplements in the storage compartment if you wish, perfect for post run recovery.


SmartShake provided me with the perfect solution, allowing me to take the essentials I needed in one handy container.  Perfect for my final week of training!

Thanks to SmartShake for sending me the SmartShake to review.  All words are my own opinion.

For some time now I have been wanting to improve my fitness and general health.  Along with running I have decided to try out a few other methods to see what works, what they are really like and if I see any health or fitness benefits.

My fitness journey was kick started this weekend when I visited the Predator Nutrition store in Leeds.  The staff have finally helped me to understand more about protein and other health benefits.  I tried my first ever protein shake in Syntha-6 edge and was pleasantly surprised by the taste.    In fact this lead me to purchase 3 protein bars to try, which I shall let you know how I get on with.

The shake remind me of Angel delight and I was therefore really pleased to know it was low in sugar.  I cannot wait to try the protein bars, in particular the cookie and cream flavour.

Over the next few months I am going to be documenting how I find the following:

- Vibration plate training
- Ultra sonic Cavitation 
- Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Training Guide
- Jillian Michaels - Extreme Shed and Shred
- 10 minute workout DVDs

I have purchased all of the above for my own use and have decided to record my own journey and hopefully provide some insight into others as they begin theirs.  If you have any health or fitness products [that are caffeine free] that you would like me to try, then please do get in touch thisdayilove@gmail.com
