It has been crazy hot here in San Diego lately, and this girl is not enjoying it. Sure, it’s great if you’re sitting on the beach, but during my scheduled 6-mile run last night, I was not feeling it. Honestly, I’d rather run in 30 degrees than 80 degrees. Maybe it’s just me, but that whole “heat…
Dear Processed Foods,
I hate your stinking guts. You make me vomit. You’re scum between my toes. Love, Alfalfa Katie I go through spurts of eating healthy and then eating absolutely horribly. Lately? The latter. Frozen pizzas, Velveeta grilled cheese, condensed soups, cookies…it’s been bad. I don’t think it’s a big deal to have these things occasionally, but…
Adding Little Workouts Throughout the Day
While I consider my lifestyle somewhat active, I’m guilty of spending way too much time sitting, whether at work or at home. Sometimes it’s because I’m lazy; other times it’s because I’m trying to get work done. I’m pretty good about sticking to my workout schedule, but way too often those short workouts are the…
My Favorite Things + Pranking the Office
I don’t usually partake in April Fool’s Day activities, but yesterday, I successfully “pranked” my entire office. I’ve been planning to do this for a few months, ever since I found the idea online. I’m usually the first person into the office, which made it way easier. By showing up about 15 to 20 minutes…
Work That Derriere Circuit Workout + My Childhood Dreams Are Coming True
Before I discuss my childhood dreams, I wanted to share a workout I did on Friday. I have several full-body circuit workouts from the past, but sometimes I like mixing and matching workouts to make a full-body workout. Other times, I like focusing on just one area. I suppose it’s just nice to have options…
We Sold Our Souls for Discounted Vegas Tickets
I think it’s about time for a Vegas recap. To begin with, I’ll just say it was definitely an interesting trip this year. This was the 3rd year in a row we went, and every year has had its own stories. This year has topped the weirdness of past visits though. The chaos began within…
A Few of My Favorite Things
So this one time I talked about a new healthy habit I was going to adopt. Ya, that died. I highly enjoy fruit in water, but it’s too much effort to do on a regular basis. I’ve got a newer new healthy habit now. It’s called tea—an excessive stash of tea in my desk at…
Ska Music Workout Playlist
I’ve been looking forward to sharing this post for about 3 weeks now. Slowly, but surely, I have been creating the playlist of all playlists, and I finally deem it worthy to share. Three words: ska, workout, playlist. For those of you not familiar with ska music, it’s a super upbeat, horn-drenched, fast-paced music style….
My Oatmeal Review with a Granola Recipe
I eat oatmeal 98% of the time for breakfast. I’ll occasionally get crazy and have some cereal, but oatmeal is my go-to because it’s so cheap, healthy, and easy to spice up. (Yet…for some reason I eat peanut butter banana oatmeal every single morning. I was telling you on Wednesday how I’m super exciting.) As…
A Few of My Favorite Things
I have a confession. I’ve never had a Shamrock Shake before…until Monday. It was weird, and after a few sips, I decided I just couldn’t do it. My name is Katie, and I don’t like Shamrock Shakes. I guess I just don’t get the obsession. I’d much rather just have a vanilla milkshake…because you can’t…
Southwest Chicken Chili in the Crockpot
Whether you eat it on hotdogs, on pasta, on fries, or just straight up, there’s no doubt chili is a pretty versatile dish. There are also millions of recipes for the popular dish, so it never gets boring. The possibilities seem endless. I’ve only made my dad’s classic tomato-based chili with ground beef and beans,…
Dat Ocean + Training Update {Week 3 Recap}
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!! Are you doing anything super awesome and/or Irishy today? We’re not! I’m thinking I’ll wear my green jeans and call it a day. I was going to attempt to make corned beef and cabbage, but I have not been able to find the damn beef for the past two weeks (WHYYYYY)….
Recap of My Boxing Experience
Is this not the most amazing day you have ever experienced in your life?! Okay, so there isn’t anything too special about today, but I’m pretty stoked about everything at the moment, especially… It’s a rest day from my half marathon training. We leave for Vegas in a week for a race Matt’s running. It’s…
A Few of My Favorite Things
It has begun. I am getting ugly runner feet again. TMI? Ever since I lowered my mileage after my marathon, my feet have been happy and pretty. Now that I’m training for another race, the blisters are-a-comin. As a result, I have declared it nails-must-always-be-painted time. It makes me feel better and distracts from the…
Training Update + Luna Grill Review
Week numero dos for half marathon training has begun! I ended week 1 with a big fail by not going on my easy 3-mile run because I wasn’t feeling well. Of all runs to skip, though, I figured that would be the one since it’s just a slow 3 miler. I woke up yesterday thinking…
