Hello Friends! How’s your week going so far? I am back at the good ol’ hotel slash my second home, keeping the BF company while he works on the railroad in small town Nebraska. Looking back at what I ate the past couple of days makes me long for home…where I have a full sized…

It’s My Birthday and I’ll Run if I Want To
**Happy Easter!!** It was super weird being out of town on my birthday, not with my family. But it did fall on Easter weekend so of course we have to split up time equally with both families (me and the BF). First card is from my youngest sister Rachel. It says “Happy Birthday and Easter!” …
{Running for Newbies} Distance Running– Planning 101
Happy Easter Weekend, Friends! Since it’s my birthday (and I have homework to do), I’m taking the day “off” with an awesome guest post to kick off my Running for Newbies series (unofficially Running for Dummies…because this might be copyrighted and I don’t want everyone to feel like a dummy for reading it). I am…
Let’s Think
Hello Friends! Who else can’t believe that it’s Thursday?? This week has been a blur…not necessarily because it’s been so busy, but just a little tiring on my brain.

Get Some Fruit in Your Life
Hello Friends! In most of my WIAWs I’ve said that I really need more fruit in my diet. I eat a banana or apple most days weeks, however I am not a big fan of berries. Something about the texture bugs me, not to mention the fact that they seem to go bad pretty quickly. …
Keep Moving

Goal Achieving Awesomeness
Happy Monday, Friends! I have this habit of creating extra long posts (have you noticed this?). So I decided to split up my food post and goals post. You’re welcome. I can’t believe that we are coming to the end of February. This means that it is high time to check out my New Years…
Are you a Fairweather Runner?
Dear Friends, I used to be somewhat of a fairweather runner. Sometimes I just wanna stay inside when I see this! But something has changed recently. It could be all of the inspiration I am finding on the Dailymile.com or Twitter. It could be the need to complete my miles, and the quickest way is…
{WIAW #16} Saturday Eating and Running
Happy February, Friends! I hope you are all having a wonderful week so far! As usual, I can’t believe it’s Wednesday (or February)..and if you’ve been reading my blog awhile, you know what Wednesdays mean! WIAW (What. I. Ate. Wednesday.) Never heard of WIAW? I got the idea from Jenn at Peas and Crayons and link…
New Threads {Review} + {Goals Update}
Hello Friends! How is your week going? And more importantly..how are your New Years Resolutions coming?
