Out with a bang!

Just a couple of things to wrap up my stay here at FRidge. First of all, I had my test-out today, and I'm very pleased with the results: I lost a total of 8 lbs and almost 9 inches! I also lost almost 2% body fat and my BMI went down significantly (I can't remember the exact number, and I'm snuggled up in bed as I type this). In TWO WEEKS! That is amazing! I feel amazing. I am so pumped! I'm signing up for a run/walk-bike-run/walk in September, and the training schedule starts on Monday!

I went for my last hike in this beautiful part of the country this morning. I opted for West Canyon Road again. It was a little cool this morning, but not so cool that I would need a long-sleeved shirt. I still sweated plenty! Here are a few pictures from today:

Recognize this? West Canyon Road. A perfect Saturday morning hike!

Red rocks and white rocks. Simply beautiful

Some abandoned hawks' nests.

This cactus cracked me up.

It's amazing how just turning around will provide a much different view.

My last (cheesy) self-portrain in Snow Canyon State Park. I've left a lot of

Mango smoothie. . . my favorite! (That's soy butter, and it was quite tasty!

What can I say? It was delicious!

Couldn't take the onions, today, but the rest of it was yummo!

1001 ways to eat ground turkey!

I could eat this on a regular basis! Mmmmm and only 31 calories!

Just for fun:

I just can't get tired of that amazing view!

Thanks to everyone who has kept up with my frolicking at the FRidge! I aim to maintain this blog (although, probably not as frequently) as I train for the upcoming duathlon. I hope you keep reading, and keep posting comments! Stay tuned. . .

Love to you all!

Goodnight FRidge. I will miss you!
