My thoughts and prayers are going out to everyone in Boston as well as runners everywhere! I haven’t quite processed this yet, but I know that as a runner it will be challenging to run the next race with the terrifying images and thoughts from the Boston Marathon yesterday. We can’t let the terror beat…

{Fitness Friday #6} Fueling for a Long Run
Hello Friends! I don’t think I need to tell you how proud I am that I accomplished this 9 mile run, by myself, on a treadmill. Seriously, I still wonder if it actually happened! Why?I never got sore! Not the next day, not two days later…here we are Friday, a whole FIVE days later and…
{MIMM #13} What DID I do in KC?
Happy Monday, Friends! MIMM or Marvelous in my Monday is all about positivity on a day that many of us dread….Mondays. I am so happy Katie started this link-up so we can get our weeks off on the right foot! Last week I got to hang out with Dave (the BF) over Spring Break in…
{Fitness Friday #5} Running Confidence
Hello Friends! I am not an extremist with…anything really. Especially with food and fitness. Balance. Balance. Balance. When it comes to workouts, I try to schedule them in my phone, but I make sure to listen to my body. And hey, if I get too busy and skip a workout..it’s all good. (For the most…

{MIMM #10} It’s Monday BUT
Hello Friends! Sometimes it takes me a bit to recover from the weekend. Specifically the sleeping schedule.

As a result, it…

Happy Monday! It’s another Marvelous Monday! Mondays tend to be a weekend recap as of late, so here was my weekend! Dave (the BF) and I had another fun-food-filled weekend back in my home town. (It’s so weird that I don’t live there anymore! 25 years of my life and I have to visit my…
{Fit Friday #5} Convenience
Hello Friends! I’m not gonna lie…many times I have planned on going to the gym but ended up “not having enough time,” or didn’t feel like getting all of my things together and making the 10 minute trip to the gym. But now…I kind of have no excuse. Sure, I’m busy, but I have at…
{Fitness Friday #4} Fitness Rambles
Happy Friday! I really couldn’t decide what alliteration I wanted to use today, or really what I wanted to blog about, but I knew I did want to blog. Anyone ever feel that way? It also seems like I have a bazillion ideas when I’m busy, not near a computer, or should be paying attention…
{Fitness Friday #3} Challenge Yourself
Happy Friday Friends! Who is excited that it’s Friday? *raises hand and jumps up and down* Not that school is terrible…I just stress myself out over little things (getting up at 5:30am is no fun either). Especially finding all my classes and making friends the first couple of weeks. And establishing a good eating/fitness routine…which…
