Mother’s day brunch & dinner were both a success. Brunch menu included two types of frittatas, a make your own waffle bar, coffee cake and bacon. For dinner we grilled chicken, lamb burgers, kielbasa and veggies. Served with salads. I’m not going to lie, by 8 pm last night when my [...] This weekend was the first weekend in a while I didn’t think about workouts after Friday’s 5K. I spent the weekend with my cousin Melissa and we had a great time. We rode the bikeshare around town. We ate a great brunch on Bourbon’s patio, including complimentary donuts. We shopped and [...] I completed weekly goal #1 this morning and went to my second boot camp of the week. I was worried that bad weather was going to shut us down, but the rain held off. We did tons of lunges, squats, crunches, jumping jacks and some sprints. I know my legs are going to be feeling [...] This weekend was one of those great weekends that make me wonder if every day would be that awesome if I didn’t have a job. Probably not, but I like to dream. Highlights included: One relaxing night in, one night out for dinner and drinking with friends Sleeping in until 10:30 am Sunday (!!) thanks [...] Remember how I was enjoying a non-training plan?

But after we noticed her ankle was swollen, the third vet we [...] Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments on my National Half recap. I’ll admit, I was feeling pretty down in the dumps about not hitting my PR, but your comments really put things in perspective. There will be other races and I will break 1:50. I was also feeling down because I ended [...] You know it is the day before a race when…. You wake up to nightmares about messing up your race goals. I’ll be honest, taking so much time off the last two weeks for my leg to heal is having a serious impact on my confidence to break 1:50 tomorrow. But I’m hoping if I [...] I’m very excited the National Half marathon is only a few days away. This race holds a special place in my heart because in 2008 it was my first big race. I started running short distances in the beginning of 2007. Colleen (who was my housemate at the time) and my friend Nyema were training [...] First things first I had an awesome time in Milwaukee. We ate, we drank, we were merry. Cousin, Me, her boyfriend Bryan The weather went from beautiful blue skies my first day to a tons of snow and wind by the time I left. I can’t wait to go back this summer. I kind [...] |
