August 2017 Best Running and Food Blog Posts

Favorite RUN

I know this is going to sound crazy… but my favorite run from August was running in Palm Springs.

Yes, it was 101 degrees.

Yes, I felt like I was running inside of sauna.

Yes, a random passerby started to talk to SR and I in a 7-11 parking lot when we stopped to drink water.

Yes, I loved it anyway because I got to run with my one friend the artist formally known as SkinnyRunner. She’s my only running buddy and I miss her. It was really great to catch up – well, catch up on life… not on running since we were super slow due to the heat. It was my favorite!

September Goals

I shared my September Goals in a live video on Instagram and Facebook. Make sure you’re following me there – I plan on doing  more live videos and updates!

If you missed it… my September Goals are not specifically running or diet goals. They’re kind of random!

1. Check-in with my Run ,Workout or Rest Day on Instagram and Facebook everyday. (Related – where do you hang out more? I’m doing both because I’m not sure.)

2. Go Stand Up Paddle-boarding 4 times.

3. “Yes and…”  –> begin my response to everything in a positive way.

Question: What was your best RUN or EAT from August??
