I am blogging on the BF's computer today and for some reason it is being weird with me, so I apologize if this post looks jacked up. I started my day with my fave oatmeal. Lunch was PB&J on flax bread - this bread is super healthy in terms of nutritional info, but it is also super dry. I don't ... Read More about Eat 12/18/2008

Run 12/18/2008
Thanks to everyone who commented on my jacked up foot tendonitis. Since I don't really have a running partner I have to blog it up to see if anyone has had a similar experience. Today I did 7.5 miles and the foot felt fine (say that 3 times fast). Good deal. We'll see how it holds up on a long run ... Read More about Run 12/18/2008

Run 12/17/2008
No run, I decided to do a spinning class today and give my foot another day off. Mother Nature was in agreement with this decision as it's pouring again here! It never rains this much. Is this an El Nino year or something? I am hoping to take a walk later as spinning does not get all my energy and ... Read More about Run 12/17/2008

Hungry Girl Bananas VitaPack
Hungry Girl and VitaTop get together a couple of times a year and offer a deal on a special package of VitaTops. Often this deal includes free shipping. I think free shipping is the biggest selling point since shipping costs around $14.00 from them! I think that is outrageous and only buy VitaTops ... Read More about Hungry Girl Bananas VitaPack
Foot pain update
I went to the podiatrist this morning, because despite running this morning I DO NOT want to run on an injured foot if I should be staying off of it. I needed to know what is wrong with my pata and how I can fix it. The verdict, is just as I suspected: tendonitis. That is actually good news, since ... Read More about Foot pain update

Run – No Run 12/15/2008
My foot was still hurting this morning so I decided to do a Spin class instead of run. Actually the choice was basically made for me because it was pouring this morning! I don't mind running in the rain, but it was serious heavy rain. I have ran with back spasms and strep throat in the past, so I ... Read More about Run – No Run 12/15/2008

Pain in my foot: As soon as I stepped out of bed this morning my left foot cramped up. This happens from time to time and usually it just goes away.
