This post is a first in a series about some of my favorite Rock Creek Park trails. Please click here for more information. Trail name: Deer Mountain Highlights of this trail: deer sightings, feeling cool running over a fallen tree, no horses allowed. Cons of this trail: fear of falling when running over [...] Sadly, I left my memory card in my computer at home over the weekend, so I didn’t take any pictures from our camping trip (a few cell phone pictures from Neil and Matt are below). Our camping trip included everything a good camping trip should: S’mores. Grilling (hot dogs for normal people, black bean burger for me). [...] I’m so tired right now as a result of an awesome, non-stop weekend. After a 30 minute swim with Nyema Friday, I worked from home for the day. This meant I could take Leela on 2 walks in Rock Creek Park – I love seeing her run again after her injury. She met a dog [...] The doctor did a quick x-ray and consult and tomorrow I will be getting an MRI. I’m guessing this will confirm my suspicions that I have tendinitis, which is inflammation of the tendon. This will probably mean a month or so off from running, which sucks because I will be probably miss the Thanksgiving 10K [...] Since everyone appreciated my last Jersey Shore reference, I realized the best Jersey Shore catchphrase could describe the last 2 days. GTL – Liz Runs DC style. GRUB Sunday I did my usual cook-up-a-bunch-of-veggies routine. I’m so happy to see the return of winter squash. There was a bit of football-day-drinking on Sunday, for part [...] I’m having a bad case of the Monday blues (even though it’s Tuesday, you know what I mean). I had such a great long weekend that it makes coming back to work that much harder. I completely cut myself from technology, both online and phone. Friday my office closed early, so I went home and [...] I’m so sad the weekend is over because it was such a good one. Highlights included: My first time doing yoga on a blacktop. This reminded me of Ashley’s all over yoga movement. It was free class part of Columbia Heights Day (a festival in my neighborhood). It was a relatively easy class, but since [...] Last night I decided to experiment in the kitchen. I’ve come up with a similar casserole before and it’s a pretty good way of using up leftovers (rice, meat) and pantry items (beans). On top of that all you need is some cheese & veggies and you are good to go. Here is the recipe: [...] After a long day of traveling and work, I was exhausted Friday evening. But Neil and I had restaurant week reservations at Zaytinya and a party to go to, so out we went. Restaurant Week in DC is a week-long event, where restaurants offer a three course meal for $35.10. My favorite restaurant in [...] I can´t believe it has been almost a week since I last posted. We have done so much since then. Time for a picture summary. We took the train from Sevilla to Granada, and climbed up to the Alhambra. It was a steep walk up: The views were breathtaking. The next day [...] |
