Today was a fitness milestone for me, and I am so proud, I just had to share. Today I ran 5km in under 30 minutes!

Welcome to LaurenGemmell.com!
While Matt and I don’t normally do Burns’ night, I saw Vegetarian Haggis on special in the supermarket and thought – why not?!
It’s been a while, hasn’t it?
I have been making pancakes for breakfast now for months, initially just on weekend mornings after a long run, but now I make them for weekday mornings too.
This week I needed to mix up my weekday lunches. Instead of relying on Tuna or Chicken to bulk out my salad, I tried adding more veggies and a little feta cheese.
This Courgette (or Zucchini, if you prefer) and Mushroom quinoa salad is quick to make, and is great as both a cold or warm salad – which is useful when the weather jumps between snow and warm spring days regularly. Although I loved both, it was particularly great when warm as the feta cheese melts.
It’s January and a new year, and we all must be getting pretty bored of the “we should be healthier than we were last year” articles. However for the first time ever, I feel like I was pretty healthy last year and it wasn’t that hard. This year is all about continuation and balance.
