Cherry Coke Cake Sunday

It is a new week ALREADY?! This month seems to be screaming past me! I am going to recap last week as I already posted each workout (almost?) on each day as todays training fell short so I need a ” look how much you did ” moment. I will get to the Cherry Coke Cake in a minute 😉

Sunday – Rest

Monday – Bootcamp class

Tuesday – Bootcamp, and walking around the lake ( 1.5 miles)

Wednesday- Bootcamp

Thursday- Bootcamp, walk to stretch

Friday, 2.25 mile walk to stretch out the sore muscles

Saturday- rest.

Sunday( today) – I NEEDed to do my 3 miles training run for Tink. What happened today was 2.2 miles of walking. I could not run. The pain in my shins and feet were almost unbearable. How after a rest day yesterday my body could be so angry.

*update* It is now 7:30pm I just got back from a 2 mile walk, and I had absolutely no pain at all. Until I took my shoes off and the Plantar pain…NO PAIN! How?! I am so confused. Excruciating pain earlier, and no pain at all now..same route. So confused.

So I had a wonderful day with my friend Andrea, we walked, talked, and I forced her to eat quinoa, feta and tomato stuffed peppers, and chicken. With our favorite wine of course. Took her to experience a small taste of commissary shopping. I spent 20 dollars when I went in for nothing. Happens every single time!

I also am trying my hand at the Cherry coke poke cake, again. Poke cakes are my favorite, and I am notorious for not following the recipe. Last time I made it I had no cherry coke, so you know.. It still tasted amazing!

My inspiration can be found here. Crazy for Crust is the website I found from pinterest with this recipe. I pin a lot of things, but I normally try every every baking and cooking recipe I pin. I should have documented this over the last few years, but I was not blogging then!

I used different ingredients than her original recipe you can find here.

I did run and get cherry coke this time. I do like the breyers cherry sundae topping as it is not stickly sweet and tastes delicious. I get that chocolate glaze instead of fudge and heat it in the microwave and squeeze right one- no coke added.

I also added some pie filling to the actual batter. It is baking right now I will be sure to add a picture on instagram and facebook with the full recipe I used. ps. it is gluten FREE!

Be sure to follow me on Instagram, and Facebook so you do not miss this amazing dessert.
