The day after a race can be so weird sometimes. I woke up this morning and I felt like I did not have a goal for the first time in a while. But I laced up my new running shoes and hit the road for a really quick, easy two mile run. I actually ran…… Continue reading Post – Race Sunday
Hello blog world! How is your week going so far? I cannot believe it is Tuesday night already and this is my first post of the week. Crazy. I have switched up my eating habits a bit this week – not by choice really, but by lack of going to the grocery store! I usually…… Continue reading Mixing it up…
I am happy to report that adding a ‘second’ breakfast in to my day really helped me out today! I left work today a little bit after four o’clock and I was not nearly as hungry as I was yesterday. I might start more of my early mornings with a piece of whole wheat toast…… Continue reading A Second Breakfast…
Happy Marathon Monday, everyone!! I must tell you all, that I am severely heartbroken to not be taking part in the festivities today (as a spectator, not as a runner). Getting up and driving to work this morning was sort of a bummer – but I did enjoy a very light traffic commute, which is…… Continue reading Marathon Monday
How has your Saturday been? I have had a fun one so far, and I am really looking forward to the Harry Potter fest I have planned for tonight! My oatmeal really kept me going for hours today, which is such a great thing. At 11 o’clock I met my good friend Danielle at the…… Continue reading Late Brunch
I am not quite sure where I have been the last couple of days. This week is sort of strange – I cannot believe it is only Tuesday evening. Monday was a day of good and rich food. But my breakfast was the same: a blueberry Stonyfield yogurt. I doctored my yogurt up with some…… Continue reading The last couple of days…
I had a great run today in my new Brooks. 3.25 miles in 35 minutes, I was definitely going slowly and walked a couple of times, too. The exciting news is that I accomplished 3.25 miles in NEW SHOES and have no new blisters. Sometimes I have trouble with ‘spring running’. Today it was 50…… Continue reading Running, cookies and lunch
I came straight home from work and did not go running or to the gym. I felt accomplished, which is sort of a weird thing to say. Instead I went right into the kitchen and started chopping up an onion. I unrolled a [pre-made – totally embarrassing] pie crust, and lined my pie dish with…… Continue reading For the record…
Wow, what a day I have had. It was a great day and I have gotten a lot accomplished. I am pretty sure my day was so awesome because I went to bed early last night [after packing the healthy breakfast and lunch… remember?] I was in bed by 9:45 last night [this might not…… Continue reading A Healthy Balance …
Can someone please tell me why – on earth – it takes me so long to pack my lunch??? On the nights where I can stand to force myself to do this, it takes quite a while. Perhaps I should start playing music or talking to a friend on the phone while I do it.…… Continue reading Sunday Night Prep
