Update Reader: Don't forget to update your Reader with https://runeatrepeat.com/ On the walk home today I thought about dinner and decided a BIG bowl of spaghetti sounded great!

Salad Tacos
I wanted a lot of veggies for lunch, but didn't just want my usual salad. So, today I made Salad Tacos for lunch! And they were yum! Last night I did pack my usual bean filled salad, but instead of some toast or crackers to go with it I packed two whole wheat tortillas. (The tortillas are from ... Read More about Salad Tacos
Lost and Found
I lost my sunglasses on my run this morning. It was too dark to wear them when I was first leaving, but I need them as soon as the sun comes up because my eyes are very sensitive. They were in my pocket and fell out somewhere during the first mile. When I noticed I had no idea when I dropped them so ... Read More about Lost and Found
Simple but delicious dinner
Wow, my title is so profound and clever. I should be a writer. But, my dinner was super simple and delicious! Ben and I wanted something quick since we were hungry. So, I threw together a quick cole slaw (the same one I made this weekend) and I heated up some falafel balls I found at Costco this ... Read More about Simple but delicious dinner
Half Marathon = Twice as much Fun
The half marathon is my favorite distance to run. I think even though it's half as long as a full marathon, it is twice as much fun! I came across this website dedicated to half marathon races today and I am excited! I found it while researching a half marathon race I found nearby. Ummm, did I ...

Early Bird Tuesday
Ben needed a ride to the train station this morning so I had to get up earlier than usual to get some elliptical time in. I am definitely a morning person, but getting to work at 7:30am is a little too much. I just did 30 minutes on the machine before I had to get ready to go. Since we were in a ...

Just add eggs
Ben swears that all leftovers are better when you toss it in a pan and fry an egg with it. I normally disagree, but since the corn casserole I made yesterday was dry I thought this would be the perfect dish to add an egg to! I reheated the corn casserole and topped it with an over-easy egg. The ... Read More about Just add eggs
Start, Stop, Keep
For one of my nutrition courses we are learning about helping people (and yourself) lose weight in a healthy way. I really love that the approach is realistic. Yesterday I read about Start, Stop & Keep. This is where you identify a habit you want to start, one you want to stop and one you want ... Read More about Start, Stop, Keep
Meet Banana Hammock and friends
In an effort to relieve my severe depression, Ben came home with an aquarium the other day. I told him it wasn't going to work, and we agreed that the aquarium is mostly for him. But, I am going to play along as much as my sad, cat & dog-less self can. We went to the pet store and got three new ... Read More about Meet Banana Hammock and friends
Cereal Killer
I was a cereal killer this morning because I ate this big bowl of it then added some more (and then, some more) just because. I used to completely binge on cereal and haven't done that in a while since I have not brought "those" cereals in the house. (Except for that recent granola buy that was gone ...

New Look
Like my new look? I have been wanted a full-on makeover for a while, but Ben keeps trying to talk me out of dying my hair blonde. I don't want to do it if it's going to look fake so we keep talking about going to a wig store to test it out. We finally passed by one today as we were walking to a ... Read More about New Look
Keep Going!
I did 13.1 miles today in 2:00:58. This is actually 8 minutes slower than my best Half Mary time so I'm not too happy with it, but I still feel like I had a good run :) The hills are still killing me, but they are not stopping me all together. Around mile 9 a little old lady with a walker was ... Read More about Keep Going!
Pantyripa
Ben and I bought this bottle of "Pantyripa" in Belize. It is basically Malibu Rum and Pineapple juice already mixed. I know it's a super fruity/sweet drink, but it is my #2 favorite drink! I came home and drank some :) Then, I had to write an article on HPV for some freelance work I'm doing. I ... Read More about Pantyripa
Nervous no more!
I was thinking about how exciting it is that some of my fave FL bloggers have a race tomorrow! But, I would be a total nervous wreck if I was running. That's because I don't race enough. I only do one or two races a year and they are usually half marathons (I just started with the fulls this ... Read More about Nervous no more!

A HOT meal
I normally pack sandwiches or salads for lunch. I do this for a couple of reasons... - I like sandwiches, - It's easy to make them healthy - It's often the cheapest lunch option But today I packed a hot meal (leftovers from a few nights ago) - tofu stir-fry with brown rice. It was so ... Read More about A HOT meal
