Word up :) I was craving a smoothie for breakfast this morning. It's kind of random because it's still so cold out here. I also had a piece of toast with pumpkin butter and half a Larabar.Since I missed oatmeal for breakfast I had super deluxe oats for lunch. They had oats, PB, raisins, Fiber One, ...

Vegan/Vegetarian Update – Not found
So, I didn't find the article my friend was referring to, but I did find this old article : Vegetarian diet leads to weightloss I also found other articles that said that vegans seem to have a slightly higher metabolic rate than non-vegans (it doesn't say how slightly). There is a lot of ... Read More about Vegan/Vegetarian Update – Not found
Run 1/8/2008
Hola Ladies and Gents, I did 7.5 miles today - this distance seems to be my fave "longer" mid-week run. The plan for tomorrow is a rest day so I can be nice and ready for a long run on Saturday. I need to figure out some kind of crosstraining for Friday so I don't get too jumpy. My legs were ... Read More about Run 1/8/2008
Question – Vegan/Vegetarian News?
I was talking about The China Study to a friend and she mentioned that she heard something on MSNBC (she thinks) recently about how a vegan diet helps you lose weight. Did anyone else see this story? I am just curious about it because she said it was very interesting and I can't find it online. ... Read More about Question – Vegan/Vegetarian News?
Run 1/7/2009
I couldn't decide if I wanted to run today or use it as a crosstraining day, but since I wasn't sure if I could make it to yoga I ran 3.5 miles. I plan on walking the perros later and searching for a nearby yoga class. I am pretty new to yoga and have attended a few classes at a studio I love near ... Read More about Run 1/7/2009

Run 1/6/2009
As I mentioned previously my Florida trip got my Marathon Training off track. I have missed my key long run - the 20 miler! 20 miles is the longest distance I will be running before the full Mary. I reviewed a lot of training programs and most beginner marathon training plans require just 1 or 2 ... Read More about Run 1/6/2009
Run 1/5/2009
I have no idea how much I ran today because I don't have a course mapped out and I didn't have my Garmin this morning. So, I ran aimlessly for about an hour or a little less and went home. I don't know if I mentioned it, but with the whole airport debacle yesterday our bags didn't get on the same ... Read More about Run 1/5/2009
New Header
Have you noticed my new and improved header? It was made courtesy of Mara at I Made Dinner. When I saw it I literally jumped up and down with excitement because it is exactly the idea I was going for - she really read my mind! I like jumping up and down when I get excited, it makes me feel like a ...

For whatever reason my pics do not want to show up right now, which isn't a complete tragedy and I somehow neglected to take pics of all the chocolate I devoured today while working from home - coincidence? I think not. Busted Monica! Well, I will work with what I have - I started the day with my ... Read More about Eat 1/5/2009

Run 1/3/2009
Today's run was 7 miles. It was hot here at 9am! I am still on California time, so my runs have started later than usual but not really. I walked a 1 1/2 miles to cool down after too. I think I think better while walking rather than running for some reason. A long walk really clears my head :) ... Read More about Run 1/3/2009
