7 miles plus

Good afternoon bloggies. How’s your day going? I am loving having the day off from work. I had a really leisurely morning of reading, watching the news and enjoying coffee and breakfast. Eventually I got myself on the road (literally) and I ran 7.1 miles this afternoon. It was 45 degrees – which turned out…… Continue reading 7 miles plus

The bug??

Hi there bloggies: I am sad to report that I am still a bit under the weather. Sigh. It is a hard time of the year to not feel well, I must say! Not to mention that it is the second year in a row for me – but of course this is nothing compared…… Continue reading The bug??

The last couple of days…

… have been crazy busy! Sometimes I feel like there are not enough hours in the day – and when the holiday season comes around, sometimes I don’t feel like I have nearly enough time to get everything done. But the last couple of days have been really fun. On Saturday my family ran in…… Continue reading The last couple of days…

Tuesday: Protein and bagels

I woke up still feeling less than my normal wonderful self for the third day in a row. So I ignored my 5:25 AM alarm and went back to sleep. I woke up again at 8 and got ready for work. It was sort of nice to have a cup of coffee at home and…… Continue reading Tuesday: Protein and bagels

The week so far…

Is this a long week for anyone else or is it just me? Just wondering. So. On Tuesday I had lunch with my friend Nichole and she recapped her most recent success running the Philadelphia Marathon the weekend before Thanksgiving. I had butternut squash soup and a piece of Arnold’s double protein bread while we…… Continue reading The week so far…

Hot Trot

The last thing in the world I wanted to do last night was make a salad and prep a smoothie. Somehow I managed to force myself to do both, and I was pretty happy today that I made myself get to work in the kitchen last night. The smoothie was good – but we were…… Continue reading Hot Trot

Who Said 1/2 Marathon Training Was Easy?

Well, not me. I was reading an article on half marathon training the other day. The author seemed to think that some people think that training for a half marathon is easy. (I am not one of those people, in case you were wondering.) I paid particular attention to one line in the article and…… Continue reading Who Said 1/2 Marathon Training Was Easy?

The Rest of Friday

I survived the rest of Friday. It was a calmer day than Thursday had been, thankfully. Breakfast got me through until lunch without a problem – and that is always a great thing in my book. Lunch on Friday was pesto, whole wheat pasta and chicken sausage left overs. My lunch was definitely coveted a…… Continue reading The Rest of Friday

Today is really Thursday…

So, I woke up this morning telling myself that today is really Thursday. Thank goodness I remembered. I had an important day at work. I had to put on a dress and some fancy shoes instead of my normal tee-shirt and jeans uniform for work.  I am not going to lie. It was really fun…… Continue reading Today is really Thursday…

Bring a Treat to Work Day

Apparently today was bring a treat to work day at the office. So even though I was annoyed by how much time I spent in the kitchen on Sunday preparing all of my healthy food and packing lunch and breakfast and making dinner for the week, when I got to work I was so happy…… Continue reading Bring a Treat to Work Day
