My Vegan Kitchen: Week 4

It has been one month since the end of the juice fast. The yoga detox has come to an end. Next goal: 5k in Newark on June 3rd. I've been running 2 miles three times a week for two weeks and tomorrow I'll bump up to 3.2 miles - just over 5k. I'll run that three times a week until the race and then I'll rotate - continuing to build speed and distance. My long term goal is the Broad Street 10-miler in Philadelphia next year.

Going to yoga four times a week has been transformative. I've never felt so much in my life. Gratitude, love, irritation, peace, anger, sadness. Every emotion magnified. Currently barely keeping my head above water in the last month of this 18-month grad school program.

I'm planning to do a short 10-day juice fast in July. If anyone is interested in joining me, I might try to make it a group effort. I'll provide recipes, a daily morning walk/meditation for anyone in my area, and hopefully a space for group support - maybe a Facebook group. I think it would be fun to do this with other people.

Here's a short video of all the amazing food I ate this week - best meal was definitely the sweet pea soup, hands down:
