Chia Seeds


So apparently, I do learn a lot in English! Well to be exact, I learned about Chia seeds. We have class early in the morning and everything is just.... dead. But for some reason my teacher is always so peppy and energetic. And the secret to her liveliness are Chia seeds, yep,  like the Chia pet seeds. She puts them in her strawberry-banana shake and drinks it in the morning. It basically started out with her reading the book, Born to Run. Its a book about a tribe of people who just run a lot. They can run up to 80 miles, I believe, and are fueled by Chia seeds. They are very nutritious and have a whole lot of other benefits to them as well.

Oh, and there was another thing I learned and it is about running barefoot. If you ever decide to run, you should try running without shoes. Apparently running barefoot gives you less soreness after a run and can improve balance. Although people would probably look at you funny, its worth a for you runners out there!
