Silk Dark Chocolate Almond Milk is my new guilty pleasure. If you are a fan of chocolate milk post-run, this is a must try! Just the thought of having a glass of this dark chocolately goodness got me through a trip to the gym… and you all know how much I love my gym (insert sarcasm here!)

Yes thanks to a lovely combination of snow that switched over to icy rain, I made my first appearance this year at my gym for a lunch date with the ‘mill. While I whined the whole way over there … and even briefly considered skipping my run altogether, I’m really glad I went. The gym was basically empty so there were no gym crazies to contend with – win! Training plan called for intervals, and if I have any hope of keeping my sanity on a treadmill, speed work is the way to go – so double win!

I want to give a shout out to my running coach Bennett Cohen who will be hosting a great teleclass tonight called “Nail Your Personal Best Regardless of the Candles on Your Cake.” Bennett helped me shave over 5 minutes off my half marathon PR on hilly courses so I encourage you to check out this call. You can find the call details HERE
i LOVE silk dark chocolate too!! by far, the most delicious almond milk ever.
REally? Your gym was empty? Mine was packed yesterday. I too am at a point where it’s almost impossible to keep a steady pace on the mill for any length of time. I’m all about intervals.
I love silk but I’ve never tried the chocolate…looks like I’m going shopping!!! I haven’t been near my gym in a few weeks but the parking lot is always overflowing!!
Love chocolate almond milk–it was my go-to when I was pregnant with my first. And totally agree–if it must be the ‘mill, it must be intervals!
Never tried almond milk, does it taste different? I recently started to drink lactose free milk, sine I think I might not do well with regular milk.
