Music is one of my favorite parts of…all events, really. So naturally, I had to share a post about all the awesome music we chose for our wedding day. This component was, by far, one of the best parts of our wedding. I’m so happy with all of our choices, and I want to relive…

Workouts Monday: Core & Legs Circuit and a 2-minute and 25-second plank for my plank challenge Tuesday: Since I’m running a 5k soon, I figured I’d see how fast I could 3.1 miles. I ran it in 26:38 for an average pace of 8:35. I did much better than I thought I would, considering I…

Monday: Get Your Run On treadmill workout, 26 pushups, and a 30-second plank for my 30-day plank challenge. Tuesday: Steady ‘n’ Sweaty Circuit 1x and a 45-second plank Today: A run is on the books for today. The goal is to make it outside to do 4 or so miles. That plus another 45-second plank and…

Workouts Monday: Ran 3.5 miles outside with a time of 33:35. I’m trying to run outside more so I can pick my mileage up a bit. I’m not okay with 4 miles feeling impossible. I also did 22 pushups for my pushup challenge. Tuesday: Did my Full Body Tabata Workout at 5:30am! Wasn’t as horrible…

Workouts Monday: Dumbbell Circuit Tuesday: Up & Down Treadmill Workout and 5 pushups for the 2nd round through my pushup challenge Today: I was going to do a circuit workout, but I have an insane rash that keeps getting worse on my chest and shoulders from being in the sun on Sunday. My goal is just to…

I just want you all to know that I’m drinking a $3.32 bottle of wine right now. No, I’m not consuming alcohol at 6am—I wrote this post last night. The sad part is…it’s not too shabby. I think I’ve gotten used to super cheap wine and don’t know the difference between good and bad wine…

Does anyone else uncontrollably yawn whenever they work out? It’s one thing to be tired, but I always catch myself yawning even though I’m breathing super hard. It’s a bit difficult…and probably a strange site. This happened to me last night while I was doing a tabata workout, so it was really hard to yawn…

Workout Going for a run outside after work! I’m strangely excited. It’s been super hot lately, though, so wish me luck on not dying. Morning, sunshines! I’ve got a collection of favorites for you today. Let me introduce them by saying that I hope your day is as awesome as the following turtle’s expression: Animal:…

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…
My Marathon Playlist
2 días mas until the Surf City Marathon!! Sheiza! (PS I’ve been saying sheiza for awhile and just decided to Google it to see if it was a real word. Apparently it’s a German swear word. Whoops….) So, to finish up my training, I ran 6 miles yesterday with a time of 56:31. Today, I…

Not even a month ago, I was running in 20-degree weather. Now I’m dealing with the 70’s. And you know what’s really weird? I think I prefer running when it’s 30 out, rather than 70 (20 is too cold). Maybe it’s because I’m never satisfied with whatever weather I’m experiencing at the time. Regardless of…
My Favorite CHRISTMAS Things: Part 2
If you weren’t aware, it’s effing cold in Illinois today. Effing. My father and I are meeting up with Matt and his parents for lunch today (yay for my bf being in the same state again!), so that meant I had to either wake up early to run or not do it at all. I…

I fear that winter is fast approaching. Cold weather is all fine and dandy when I’m not training for a marathon. I’m just hoping when I do my 16- and 20-mile runs it’s not miserable outside. Eeeeeeeeeee…Guess I’ll just have to deal! I was just thinking how wonderful it will be to do whatever I…

Hello! Happy hump day! How’s your week going so far? It’s hard to believe Saturday is the first day of December. Eeee! I’m looking forward to it. One reason is the fact that December means February is only 2 months away, which means the excitement is closer! If you haven’t already, you should check out…
