Calories: 154 cal You can adjust this workout to suit your level. It doesn't matter how many reps you can do, as long as you are pushing yourself. In time, you will be able to increase your reps and/or weights.
The warm up can be found here. This was my 9th Ragnar Race. Every time I do one, I learn something new about myself. It is challenging and fun, and as in life, I experience joys and sorrows. When I am on the trail and pushing myself, I have choices in the moment, but I am not going to stop. Getting out of my head- and the craziness of everyday life- and back into nature, I am able to get back in touch with a sense of internal peace. I reflect on my experience and what I learned from this race, and invite you to share in these kinds of experiences with me and the Fuerte Community.

Recipe by Jamie Vespa Healthy and a crowd pleaser! Active: 20 min. Total: 1 hr. 20 min. Habaneros contain more capsaicin (the compound that contributes spicy heat) than jalapeños, but removing the seeds and membranes lessens that heat considerably. Ingredients: Cooking spray 2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs ⅓ cup blueberry preserves 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard 2 tsp. reduced-sodium Worcestershire sauce 2 tbsp. plus 1 tsp. minced jalapeño Chiles, seeds and membranes removed, divided (I also used a tablespoon of habanero sauce for more heat) 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar, divided ½ tsp. kosher salt, divided ½ tsp. black pepper, divided 2 garlic cloves, minced 2 cups very thinly sliced cored red cabbage 1 cup matchstick-cut carrots ½ cup thinly sliced radishes ⅓ cup chopped fresh basil or cilantro 2 tbsp. lime juice 1 tbsp. olive oil 1 tbsp. tapioca flour 1 tbsp. water 6 whole-wheat hamburger buns, of 12 mini sliders-lightly toasted Instructions 1. Coat a 5 to 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray; place chicken in bottom of slow cooker. 2. Combine apricot preserves, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons habanero chile, 2 teaspoons vinegar, ¾ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and garlic in a bowl; stir with a whisk. Pour apricot mixture over chicken in slow cooker. Toss to coat. Cover and cook on LOW pressure in instapot or oven. 3. Combine cabbage, carrots, radishes, cilantro in a large bowl. Stir together lime juice, oil, remaining 1 teaspoon vinegar, remaining 1 teaspoon habanero, remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, and remaining ¼ teaspoon black pepper. In a separate smaller bowl. Add to cabbage mixture; toss to combine. Let stand at room temperature 15 minutes. 4. Transfer chicken to a cutting board. Shred with 2 forks; place in a large bowl.
