You guys...I had PIZZA on Saturday after the race.  Like real, cheesy, sausage and pepperoni pizza.  I'm not going to lie, while I have grown accustomed to clean eating and love the foods we eat, that pizza tasted like a little slice of heaven.   I was totally famished after the mud run that I probably could have eaten an entire large pie by myself, but I refrained.  It really is all about ...
