Hello and Happy MLK Day!
(source)
I started my morning with a short run. I didn’t want to do too much since I ran a lot this weekend, but I really need to s-t-r-e-t-c-h and getting warmed up helps!
Now I have a hot date with my foam roller. Wish me luck!
Breakfast: Eggs and toast with Laughing Cow cream cheese and jam.
Last night I was out running errands and had to make a stop at the second happiest place on Earth = Yogurtland. That was a good choice.
I ate it while watching Desert Runners, a documentary about an ultra marathon series that takes runners through the 4 hardest deserts runs in the world. It’s crazy! And amazing. And motivating!! (I’m going to be interviewing one of the runners from the movie soon!)
Vegas cuddled on my lap while I watched
But, I want to pass on the motivation to you so here’s a little
Monday Motivation
Question: Are you working or at school today?
Liane says
I would totally watch a documentary about dessert runners! Desert runners sounds quite interesting (but probably involves less cake.)
Losing Lindy says
Vegas knows his Momma
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
I am working today but my roommate (a teacher) is off. Lucky. 😉
Mike @ 3 Cheap Runners says
We all had to work today here in Canada. Thanks for the movie recommendation, it sounds really cool! And did I see Carrot Cake frozen yogurt on the menu?
TartanJogger tartanjogger.com says
I’ve had a very productive day at work today 😉
Kaelene @Unlocking Kiki says
Carrot cake frozen yogurt, sounds amazing!
Lis @ 26.2x2 says
Working today, boo! Good motivation, but today is my rest day – I’m a little sore after yesterday’s workout! I’m probably preaching to the choir about that, though…
Anne says
Working! Planning a run right after- Should be interesting since I am UBER sore from hockey yesterday!
Elizabeth @ Positive Change says
Working all day! But at work at a running store so I really don’t mind!
I would love to see that documentary and I can’t wait to read your interview.
Megan @ TheSkinny-Life says
No work for me today just play!
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
I am going to have to look up that documentary. My husband and I are always looking for new running related documentaries to watch – looks PERFECT!
Divya @ Eat. Teach. Blog. says
No work for me! The benefits of working at a school! 😉
Jessica says
No work today; thanks for the motivation, bc the winter weather is making me feel like a lazy slug! Today’s workout includes a run outside and cleaning the bathrooms (booooooo). The reward for said workout is an afternoon nap!!
Stephanie @ Whole Health Dork says
At work today. There are very few days we’re closed at the cancer center. Thankfully, we are still given good vacation time.
When I first read about the Desert Runners, I thought it said “Dessert Runners” (can you tell where my mind always is?). I was wondering what the heck a dessert run is…
It’s close to my snack time, so your breakfast picture is making my stomach rumble! I could eat breakfast foods at any time of the day!
runeatrepeat says
I am a dessert runner all the way! I thought the same thing when I saw the title 🙂
Annemarie/Carmie says
I was just stopping by today the same thing!
Ashley @ Snow Cream and Syrup says
Work work work! But I’m also about to work OUT which is much more fun 🙂
Livi says
I am off today from class! so so nice!
Em F says
Working but got in some good sledding this morning. That movie sounds really interesting. I’ll have to check it out!
Abi@AbsofSteel says
gosh, i could go for some frozen yogurt right now. off day for me!
Lily @ Lily Runs the World says
Working today! I definitely read that movie title as Dessert Runners, my mind is obviously elsewhere.
Jenn says
I thought the same thing! (And I may have been REALLY excited to watch that movie.) I’m up for creating a group that only runs to dessert spots.
Holly @ Healthy Living Holly says
working the day away! fortunately i have the evening free which is a date with the gym followed by hanging out with my boyfriend. hope he doesn’t mind the sweatface!
Courtney @The TriGirl Chronicles says
I’m off work today and took advantage to get an extra long gym session and trainer ride on my bike in after sleeping in!
Ashley @ Brocblog says
I went to work and found out we had the day off. cool. Sounds like a really nice movie and now that I have the day off, maybe Ill run it out!
