Run Eat Repeat

A Self Indulgent Shopping Spree

Healthy Living· My Life

21 Dec

Hello! How are you? Done with Christmas Shopping? Recovering from Hanukkah? Looking for a ‘Secret Santa’ to keep ya warm tonight??

I am super busted because I bought Christmas presents for myself. First, I got my StitchFix delivery and was sooooo super excited about it. I can’t wait to try everything on – I already love the clothes, just hope they fit well!

Then, I got a space heater. My old one was stored a little poorly so now I have to kick it to keep it running. I’m not scientist, but I’m guessing kicking a machine that provides heat in small spaces is a bad life choice.

Plus some small forks and spoons from Home Goods. I love small forks and spoons!!! And remember I said I lost all my other small forks? We’ll see how long these last before running away from home.

I also treated myself to fro-yo yesterday. I was on a self indulgent spree!

I posted this picture to Instagram and got compliments on my nail polish. Thanks, but you should also see the dark side of running…

I don’t usually get blue toenails or lose toenails any more, but the Revel City Marathon was mainly downhill and the repeated motion of my toes hitting the front of my shoes on the downhills results in one toenail abandoning ship and another turning a lovely shade of blue.

Now I’m off to lose a few more toenails with a 5 mile run! See ya later!!

      I ordered the 24 day challenge from you! I was always concerned/worried about doing this while training for long distances, but after seeing your success, I decided to hop on board. I guess this could be considered a belated Christmas gift to myself. 🙂

        Yeah, there is not a calorie limit on the challenge so make sure you’ll still fueling well with clean foods.

      I always buy stuff for myself at the holidays because the sales are soo good. I got my nails done for the holidays, I bought myself some hair clips and hair ties, and a new sports bra. I usually buy myself the gift from my husband because if I tell him what I want, he doesn’t get it for me. Last year I wanted a new watch and we ended up going after Christmas to get it. This year I need a new winter coat, so I bought it on Black Friday on sale. Haven’t seen it that cheap since. And it’s wrapped and under the tree from him and he doesn’t have to shop for me and I don’t have to be mad that he didn’t get me what I asked for. SO there.

      But…those “forks” only have 3 tines.. that makes them tridents not forks. You may rule the sea, but not eat with them! 🙂

      I bought myself a holiday manicure yesterday. Felt a bit guilty, but it was totally worth it! Happy holidays!

      Hi,
      I am interested in the 24 day Adovacare preorder, but can you tell me the cost with no add-ons? I can’t get to the cost page without putting in my payment info. Thank you!

      Present shopping for yourself is necessary during the holidays.

      I bought myself new winter boots, a massage, and a concert ticket. Do what you gotta do!
