Belwood Lake picnic

Yesterday the company I work for took us all paintballing as a teambuilding event. It was an awesome time, and have some pretty solid bruises to show for it.


Anyway today Jer and I went out to Belwood Conservation area to where our triathlons will be next weekend. I tried out the wetsuit in the lake, and it definitely helped with buoyancy. I will need to get lots more practice in swimming this week but hopefully I will be set for next weekend.


We packed a healthy picnic lunch: organic, grain-fed chicken wraps, sliced veggies, bananas, mineral water and our one treat... chocolate croissants :) I really think the key to healthy eating is preparation. A little bit can go a long way. Having these things ready to bring with us in a cooler ensured that we didn't stop and grab fast food or hit a restaurant somewhere.


Me enjoying some post-swim veggie sticks:



Tomorrow is the dirty dash. I injured my knee yesterday during paintball so I'm hoping I'll be ok for the run tomorrow. If not, I'll walk the 4k. Should be a good time either way!
