I received an email from Kashi this morning. I know everyone already knows about the massive PB recall that has been going on for months now, but in case you still are holding on to some recalled Kashi foodies, here is the info on their recalled products: • Kashi® TLC® Chewy Granola Bars in Trail ...

Brrrrrrr
It is cold today! I am wearing footless tights under my pants and 3 layers on top and I'm still cold! I started my little day with a tempo run for about 45 minutes and a 5 minute walk to cool down (not that I needed to get any cooler). Breakfast was my usual oats. I love this hot bowl of food ...

Eat II 2/9/2009
I had a Reese's chocolate heart as part of my afternoon snack. It doesn't look like a heart that much though, but it tasted good :) I was signing my name on my Valentine's for work so I couldn't help but have one :) Look at this big pile tempting me! I better give these away asap so I don't eat any ... Read More about Eat II 2/9/2009
Rainy Run
It has been raining forever here!!!! At least it feels like forever, it has actually rained every day since Thursday. That is crazy for California. Luckily God was nice to me and stopped the rain for a bit so I could run this morning. I did about 5.3 miles, it was misting rain for a bit, but nothing ... Read More about Rainy Run

Eating breakfast at home is so much better than eating in my car. I am normally in such a rush to get to work lately I've been eating oatmeal in the car - not enjoyable. Today I had enough time to eat like a civilized person at the table. This is my normal combo - oats, naner, almond milk, cinnamon, ... Read More about Eat I 2/9/2009
Eat II 2/8/2009
Around 4pm I got hungry for a snack. I couldn't decide between a Kashi bar since I wanted to try the pumpkin flavor or yogurt with goodies. I got around this by taking a bite of the Kashi bar and giving the rest to Ben :) and making yogurt for myself. W I hadn't given Ben a taste of my fabulous ... Read More about Eat II 2/8/2009

I apologize if you're emailed me and I am barely getting to your question, but I did want to answer everyone's questions via the blog so other curious readers could benefit too :) 1. Q: How long have you been ... Read More about Running Questions

Happy Sunday :) I started the day with a bit of a change up in breakfast - eggs. I like eggs, but I lalalove cereal and oatmeal, so I really don't have them that often. Ben LOVES eggs, seriously. Every time he has them I always want to steal some so I just figured I'd make some of my own. I made an ... Read More about Eat I 2/8/2009
This rainbow couldn't stop me…
from a complete binge after I got home from class. After class on Saturday I ate one of the new Kashi granola bars on the way home: Previous to that I had a very good lunch: But, all that food couldn't stop me from coming home and heading straight for the kitchen! I ate a bunch of random ... Read More about This rainbow couldn't stop me…
Back to business
Finally I am back in business. I took off all week from running after the marathon Sunday. Since my left foot was bothering me I wanted to make sure I didn't push it. The Zero Week Plan said I could run as much as 8 miles today, but I didn't for 2 reasons: - I didn't have time :( since I had to ... Read More about Back to business

I had to be at work super early today since I had volunteered for the Breakfast Club - where my co-worker and I bring breakie into work. I just did it because she wanted to and I didn't actually want to make anything so I bought a bunch of pan dulce and she brought fruit and juice. I ate half a ... Read More about Eat I 2/6/2009
2 bad workouts
1. Yesterday I went to yoga. Since I am barely getting over sore quads I wanted to take it easy so I went to the Level I/Gentle Yoga. Well, it was complete waste of time :( I didn't realize, but it seems the class is aimed at senior citizens and is basically just stretching your arms up and ... Read More about 2 bad workouts
Run 2/5/2009
I have not ran since Sunday and I don't plan on running again until Saturday. On Monday after the full mary I took a walk in the morning and another short walk after work, then my foot/ankle started to hurt me. It still hurt Tuesday and Wednesday when I walked too. It's my tendonitis foot, so it ... Read More about Run 2/5/2009

Eating and Repeating
Lately the blog has just been about running, now that the marathon is over I need to focus on my eating. Exercise has not been a problem for me, but eating is where I struggle. I weighed in this morning at ***(not ready to post this). My goal is between 145 to 147. I posted this back on December ... Read More about Eating and Repeating
Zero Week
This is Zero Week - the week after the Full Marathon, now it's time to recover from all the damage 26.2 miles can do to your body. I didn't follow the Hal Higdon training plan for the marathon ( I kinda just threw my plan together from a bunch of different ones and in combo with how I felt), but he ... Read More about Zero Week
