Sunday’s Race…

So, I promised a brief recap of Sunday’s race – and I’m not about to let you down! On Saturday afternoon I got into Boston where I was spending the night so I didn’t have to worry about getting to the start line by 7:45. My hotel was an easy walk right to the Boston…… Continue reading Sunday’s Race…

Pre-Race Saturday

Happy weekend, Bloggies! I really took it easy with my exercise this week – it was in the nineties most of the week and it really just zapped me of all energy I was able to muster (which wasn’t all that much to begin with!). I guess I felt a little better taking it easy…… Continue reading Pre-Race Saturday

Quinoa and running

I skipped my run on Wednesday because it was raining. I got home and I had a huge need to cook up a storm. I stopped by the market on my way home to pick up a few ingredients. I had to ask a person working at the store where the quinoa was. The guy…… Continue reading Quinoa and running

Uber Monday

Happy Monday, bloggies! How was your Monday? I had a pretty good day considering how exhausted I am. I think the streak really started getting to me on Saturday. I had a decent (but not great) 5.65 mile run on Saturday morning with my running buddy but by Saturday afternoon I was so exhausted. By…… Continue reading Uber Monday

National Running Day – Year 2 in the rain…

However, last year we were under a tornado warning so I will take normal downpours any day!! Before I get to my one mile run and the rest of my work out, I’m…… Continue reading National Running Day – Year 2 in the rain…

Summer Run Streak – Day 9

It is a good thing that my smoothie was awesome this morning because I did not have a chance to eat again until after 1 o’clock this afternoon! The Kashi meal was not the best, but it did the trick. I was too exhausted last night to put together a salad for lunch and I…… Continue reading Summer Run Streak – Day 9

Running in the rain…

All day at work I kept an eye on my office window wondering what my post – work run would be like. It was not looking all that great. My afternoon snack was a handful of unsalted peanuts and a couple of dark chocolate chips. (So good!) On the way home from work I sipped…… Continue reading Running in the rain…

Running & Smoothies

I really did not want to run today. But I did because I had to keep the streak alive! I pushed myself a little bit to run a decent amount (I am training for a couple of 10Ks after all!) Here is something random for the record: half a pear and 1 big mug of…… Continue reading Running & Smoothies

The rest of the week…

Happy Sunday, bloggies! Where did the weekend go? Of course we have a whole day left – but personally, I can’t believe it’s Sunday morning already. I’m enjoying my Sunday AM tradition – coffee and the morning news shows 🙂 This week was sort of a week of vacation detox. But the funny thing is…… Continue reading The rest of the week…

Thursday

Hi Everyone: Happy Thursday night! I am so happy that tomorrow is Friday – it was really great working just a three day work week! I was able to get to work again at 7 o’clock this morning – I even had time to whip up a smoothie for breakfast. I forgot to take a…… Continue reading Thursday
