A Peek In Our Week and A Product Update!

Hello Folks! We hope you had a great week and weekend. We used most of last week as a recovery week from our Rock n Roll Virginia Beach Half Marathon last Sunday.

I got a new work schedule so I didn't get my usual runs in that I like to do.
Even though I did take some rest days,  I did get one 3 mile run in and one 4 mile run in.
I also caught up with some college friends and had a girls night one night last week.
My original Plans for the weekends fell through, so I decided a football game might be a great alternative seeing as it was the first Sunday of NFL Football and all! ~L

 

 

 

I on the other hand went another week without any runs, hey, I call it recovery, right?

Even though I had the normal achiness after the run, I was surprised at how good I felt considering the circumstances I've been under lately. I went away from that race weekend with only two incidents, a loss toenail and a bloody shin! That's right, I woke up on race morning feeling great, no hip pain, my chest pains were under control, I was ready to run. Then I hit my leg on the footboard of the bed and I just fell right down. It was one of those pains that you could feel through out your whole body. It stung for a bit and it bled but fortunately it did not prevent me from running a good race. The gash in my leg has now scabbed over and it itches like crazy!!!! ~M

Product Update:
Remember last month we posted an Honest Review of food and drink for Runners? 

 

Well we mentioned a drink called Neuro Bliss and Neuro Passion. The Neuro people must have read our post because they contacted us to let us know that they have re-formulated their drinks.

 

They were nice enough to send us each a case to try.

Neuro Bliss - The flavor is Summer Citrus Berry.  This one is still my favorite. I like the taste of this and didn't think the formula changed that much if at all. It was still great.

 Neuro Sonic -Blood Orange Passion flavored. I'm thinking since this is still in a red bottle that it was suppose to replace Neuro Passion ( the one I mentioned in the last post). I can say that this drink did not give me a headache this time.

Neuro Sleep - Mellow Mango flavored. I don't like Mango flavored stuff so I wasn't a fan of this one.

Neuro Daily- Tangerine Citrus flavor. This tasted like lemon lime and reminded me of a lighter version of 7-UP.

I think these are good for a nice refreshing flavored drink, but I did not feel like I experienced, less stress, more energy, or a better night's sleep  ( things they claim to do) because of drinking them. Now the immunity is a little harder to tell. I'll let you know if I come down with something in the next week or two...lol

The Neuro people gave us some really great products to giveaway at our Runner Meet Up in Disney in January. Yes, we are planning a meet up so stay tuned for some more info on it next month.
