Breakfast after 11 hours of walking

Do you Relay? I'm talking Relay for Life today! Well I do and am glad to say we had our local relay yesterday and I did finish up 4.5 miles this year which is 2x my amount from last year my plan is to double my amount each year and so far so good but that does mean I'm looking at at least 9 miles for next year...uh its ok Ive got a whole year to go still :) Our team this year grew so much it was great and even though I may believe our committee dropped the ball in some places it was great weather and lots of fun.  My oldest son ran over 8 miles himself hes a runner and is determined to be a famous runner someday which is fine with me Its at least a healthy goal which I'm all for! My youngest got to enjoy his laps in the luxury of his comfy stroller ah that's the life right? I cant wait till next year Ive got plans for several different ways to help out and am hoping its at a different field but we will see. I can always join another Relay anywhere around where I live maybe Il do more than one Relay next year!
Note to for future relays...after 11 hours of walking we were announced that they would be serving donuts and juice for breakfast! ugh everyone on my team near gagged and said no thank you so we packed up and called it a day lol Is it just me or is it just wrong after a full night of walking and supporting the last thing we wanted was sugared up absolutely no nutritional value donuts! Gross I already plan on serving my shakes at the next relay and am now thinking of doing other relays just so that I can offer them a Visalus Vi-Shape shake during the night and wee hours we can pump out frozen coffee shakes, during the heat we could do Pina Colada shakes, and in the morning we can do Chocolate Banana, Very Berry, shoot we can have a whole assortment and enjoy the packed nutrients, great taste, and energy boost! I love being a Visalus Distributor and know that I don't have to take part in the bad food choices but make my own and share my time with other friends who are also healthy minded.  So spread the word Relay committee members Donuts are a no go at 4 a.m. when you've been pushing your body through the night next time go for some nutrition!
