Saturday’s are days for long runs or even the opposite, a lazy elliptical hour, but yesterday I switched up my exercise with Self Magazine’s Workout in the Park.
First I made an easy, protein packed breakfast in the microwave:
1/2 cup of egg whites, scoop of vanilla protein powder, 1 mashed banana, cinnamon
Microwave for 2 minutes – top with your favorite topping
After this breakfast I was ready to take on any exercise challenge.
When I arrived at the event there were lots and lots of women eager to get sweaty
I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was so pleased with the set up. There was a main stage with cardio workouts and then smaller breakout sessions, including yoga and pilates sessions.

Of course there were also plenty of free goodies and it was a great chance to meet some friendly people all bonding over sweating and the burning muscles in our legs.
I left with shaking legs and a smile on my sweaty face 🙂
Before heading out to celebrate Cinco de Mayo I baked some tofu and threw together a salad.
I marinated some tofu (after pressing it between two plates to get as much water out as possible) in a pre-made teriyake sauce and then baked them in the oven at 375 degrees until they started to brown.
Dinner is served:
Enjoy the last day of the weekend 🙂
that looks so fun! i would love to go to an event like that!
It was a lot of fun, but now I am so sore!
