Despite my planning ahead last night by having my breakfast made, my workout clothes laid out, and my green monster ready to go: I left the house in a whirl wind, and didn’t have time to do a morning post. It seems like whenever I work out in the morning, it’s harder to get in [...]

Hey hey! I survived my 7 miler!! Although I wore my new workout gear, I didn’t really get to show it off. I ended up having to wear my Lululemon track jacket the entire time, because it was only 53º out Oh well. This was my first time running in the “cold” aka not beastly [...]
Shopping! And a stay at the Parental’s
August 30, 2009 By 10 Comments
Hey everyone! I know I re-capped my race this weekend, but I hardly talked about anything else! Well, another good thing about the race was I got to stay at my parents’ house. I hardly ever do this anymore since Shane and I have our own house, but it’s nice to be “home” every once [...]
Nice Relaxing 5k
August 29, 2009 By 11 Comments
Hi all! The race went fabulously. Since I wasn’t running it for time, there wasn’t any pressure to try and get a certain time. My friend, Debby, and I decided we would just run it, talk it, and enjoy it. My friend Debby is the wise one who taught me all the calories leak out [...]
Pre-Race Jitters!
August 29, 2009 By 5 Comments
Ok, so basically there are no jitters this time around. Which in turn makes me a little well, jittery nervous. Usually nerves help me do better. Maybe they’re just sleeping in and will show up once I get to the race. hehe Or maybe it’s just because it’s another 5k, and my goal is to [...]
Running Around Normal Eating
August 28, 2009 By 8 Comments
I read an article this week on what normal eating is. I may be in the minority, but I highly disagreed with just about everything the article stated- Starting with the title, “What is Normal Eating?” There’s a “normal” eating? Honestly normal is way too subjective of an adjective when used in this topic (and [...]

Frisbee Golf and a Frozen Pizza
August 27, 2009 By 16 Comments
Hi all! Hope your hump day finished well! I had planned on coming home and doing laundry, but another couple came over about 10 minutes after I got home, and asked us to go Frisbee golf or “discin” as we call it. We took off around 5:30, and didn’t get back until about 7:45 because [...]
