I registered for the Camp Pendleton World Famous Mud Run 10k. Thanks to a Living Social deal for half off this race, Matt and I both signed up for the race June 9th. It’s 6.2 miles of obstacles and mud and marines. Basically, I’m really excited yet so scared. Here’s the video they have on…

So Fresh & So Clean–My Diet Intervention
Workout Yesterday: 45-Minute Speed Pyramid on the treadmill=awesome workout Today: No Nonsense Circuit before partying like a rockstar all weekened So Fresh & So Clean Clean Yesterday, I ate a PB & J sandwich the size of Hagrid’s face. (I must clarify the picture is not to scale with my sandwich.) The sandwich wasn’t even that…
My Favorite Things
So I whipped up some treadmill magic last night, and it felt amazing. I think it’s safe to say this my new favorite running interval workout. By increasing the speed by .1 every minute, I got up to 7 at a certain point. Overall, it was challenging yet doable. Tonight, I’m planning to combine a…
New Addition to the Family
What is this addition you ask? I’ll give you some hints: It breathes air, was $5, looks red, and is the second letter of the Greek alphabet. Say hello to… Mr. No Name, the Beta fish. Aka we haven’t named it yet. Does anyone else have a major problem with naming pets? I’ve had fish…
What to Do if a Runner Passes Out from Heat Exhaustion
Workout Yesterday – 4 difficult, hot miles outside (Apparently if you rarely run, it starts to get a bit unpleasant.) Later Today – My Lean Legs Circuit, Alphabet Abs Circuit, & Toned Arms & Shoulders. (I feel like being intense.) Question for you all… [Source] Story of my life. But guess what… It’s Friday! Let’s…
My Favorite Things
It feels so good to get back into my daily routines after traveling this past weekend. I’m like a kid in that I need a schedule to follow everyday—I’m just so much more productive with the structure. Not to mention I worked out for the first time in 5 days today. I told you I suck…
Our Scary & Exciting Trip to Vegas
Before I get into my Vegas recap, I just wanted to encourage everyone to keep the families and victims of the Boston Marathon bombings in your prayers. I know some of the bloggers I read were running in it, so I’m praying they’re all okay. I’m anxious to hear what they have to say about…
My Favorite Healthy Things + Kona Kase Review
Last night’s workout was quite mild thanks to an annoying hip pain that needs to go away ASAP. Also, the workout didn’t happen till about 8pm because I’ve been a master staller at getting in my workouts lately. I just did an upper body workout in the form of my Toned Arms & Shoulders circuit…
Tasty Tuesday: Crockpot Jambalaya
Last night, I made good food. It was wonderful. I feel like I make “meh” food a lot, so whenever Matt says something is “really good,” it makes me really happy. I used this recipe for Jambalaya as a guide, and my alterations actually turned out really well! Love when that happens. I’m also excited…
An Important Question for You
Last night, Matt and I came across a serious dilemma… Mac ‘n’ cheese on the pizza or on the side? Kraft shapes were on sale for $0.89 yesterday, so I threw four boxes a box in the cart. Dinner was the usual lazy Sunday night frozen pizza. Matt decided he wanted some of Monster’s Inc…
Bestowed Review + Giveaway!
Want to know how to put yourself in a really good mood? Throw some stuff in the crockpot in the morning, forget about it all day, and discover it later when dinner time approaches and you’re dreading the preparation part. This happened to me last night. When I got home from work, I opened the…
My Favorite Things (+ Brooks Infiniti Bra Review)
After work today, I’m going to run 6 or so miles along the bay. I work pretty close to the ocean, so I figure I might as well just go running straight from it. Got’ta take advantage of this awesome location while it’s my life! Now, getting down to business… These Are a Few of…
Super Paranoid
Happy Belated Easter! And Happy April Fool’s Day! I hate this day. Why? Because I’m basically just super paranoid. Matt likes to mess with people, so on this day, I will not trust him the least bit—hence the title of this post. Anywho… It is officially April, and that is awesome. I like starting new…
