Green Mean Juicer

After watching
(free on Hulu) last week twice. I decided to do a 10-day juice fast with my friend, Alicia Yost. Alicia made a Juice Ninja group on facebook and we have 4+ others doing a fast this month. Join us!
I will probably supplement protein each day before/after my workout. I am training for Wasatch Back and the Spudman tri. 

To get geared up I bought the Breville JE98XL Juicer, Two-Speed Juice Fountain. It's pricey but highly recommended. I plan to juice after the fast so I thought it was good investment. 
I bought a Bountiful Basket 
and more fresh produce at Winco. 
Sunday and Monday I am experimenting with the juicer and juice recipes and Tuesday I will start my 10-day juice fast adventure.
Recipes and plans available on:
and many more.

Utah Valley Half Marathon

Valery's final time: 2:21:57

Kristen Luck and I ran the first 10 miles together. I've never ran a race with a friend. I enjoyed it. She had a sore foot so the last three miles we split. The course was beautiful, the decline was welcomed, but the lack of bathrooms were stressful. At one point we had to cross a busy street and use the Chevron's restroom (just ridiculous).
