Random Tuesdays! And a Bonus Recipe for Protein Mango Smoothie

By Mamawithflavor @MaWithFlavor
Hello everyone!
I am super late with this Tuesday post! I still have a few minutes of Tuesday left on the East Coast at least!
On Tuesdays and Thursdays I have a late Psychology class and I am so tired on Wednesdays and Fridays. Last night after class I cooked a bunch of homemade sausage(I made these on Friday night and froze them) for easy breakfast for the rest of the week, I did my workouts, got the kids stuff ready for school, and did other little things around the house. I was super tired by the time I was done at 1am!
This morning I woke up, packed the kids' lunches, threw on some booty shorts and a sweatshirt ha!
My goal was to finish Week 4 Day 2 of my Couch to 10K run! I can't do it tonight as my husband is working the late shift. The kids and I (only my oldest 2) walked to school and then I went for a run. I started pretty well and then I started getting really hot. Damn sweatshirt. I wanted to take it off (i had a regular workout shirt underneath), but I didn't want to carry it. According to my RunKeeper App I burned more calories today than I have on any run I've done so far this year. I was a sweaty mess when I was done, and I was so happy to be done! But as I made my smoothie, I was so happy that I did run though I was dressed the part I didn't feel the part.
I prepped some dinner, made breakfast for my youngest, made/drank my smoothie and then took a nice nap.
That's why I am so late with the post. It's already Wednesday afternoon here, I usually do the daily posts the day after (here).
So let me share with you all a quickie recipe for the protein Mango Smoothie I made today! It's soooo good!
