WOD-MOD wk 12 {a night out}

A reminder for those of you who don't konw what our WOD-MOD stands for:
WOD = Workout of the Day
MOD = Meal of the Day
This week was another busy week for the both of us.  So again, we each did our own WOD.

{Leah's WOD}
I hit Stoneway Crossfit and did an awesome but a killer of a WOD.

WOD

This was a KILLLER! I loved it though. It was a good one for me since I don't row often and it is something I really need to work on. You only get better by doing.

For time:

Part 1.
800m run
500m row
800m run
500m row
800m run
500m row

Part 2.
3 rounds
10 Hollow Rocks
15 Straight Legged Sit-ups
30 Superman*

*you can either do the lift like shown in the video or keep your arms and legs up (like in the video) and rock back and forth, like you do int he hollow rock, but you are on your stomach.

{Meredith's WOD}

Run 10 miles

She ran to the Crossfit gym and did part 2 of the WOD.

MOD {Tasty Thai}

Because this week was super busy for me- including a flight down to Santa Barbara yesterday to visit the best friend!!- I really didn't want to deal with cooking. So, Meredith and I enjoyed a little date at a tiny whole in the wall Thai place, Tup Tim Thai,  in Seattle's Quenn Ann neighborhood.  Oh my goodness, sooo cute! The service was wonderful and the food was great.
People often ask me "How do you eat clean when you go out?" It really isn't that hard, you just have to be mindful of what you order and ask for modifications and/or substitutions. Most places will work with you, especially if you are polite - a little kindness goes a long ways.  After purusing the menu, we got to ordering!

We ordered some fresh spring rolls to start. Delish! 

  For our "second" course we got the Tom Yum Soup, a broth based soup with mushrooms and chicken. 

For the "main" course we both really wanted some panang curry, but didn't want chicken, which was the only thing they had listed for their panang.  So, we asked about getting a salmon panang curry instead. He directed us to the salmon red curry, but we really wanted some veggies in the curry like the panang does...what do you know they offered to put some veggies in with our salmon curry. Fabulous! We also got a little brown rice for the side.

*I apologize for the poor lighting. The restraunt had some nice ambient lighting that wasn't condusive to photos! ;-)

Meredith and I were both pleased with how accomidating they were. And let me tell you, the serving size of the salmon WAS awesome. We both had just had worked our tails off and ate a ton and we still had leftovers!

When eating out, it is really about choosing your food wisely and asking for modifications and substitutions.  You can typically also find or make something clean at a restraunt! Watch our for an entire post on eating out and staying clean!

I am off to enjoy myself in downtown Santa Barbara! :) Yahoo!
