Sorry I have been MIA. I was in Big Bear, CA this weekend. We actually were going up to Big Bear (BB) on Friday night and had to turn around because there were car accidents and the traffic was delayed 4 hours! Boo. I wish accidents are avoidable. So, we went back home thinking the trip was cancelled until I…

Happy Valentine's Day!
So, the surprise for Ben was a singing telegram in the form of a Gorilla! Ha. I thought he would think it was hysterical, but he just ended up looking embarrassed and annoyed. Boo. I honestly thought he would be laughing and dancing around with him. Oh well, I tried. Now he says he is going to get me back…

New running Gear and Contests
My running shirts are disgusting. Seriously, how can I put this without grossing you out? I can’t. For some reason the armpit area of my workout clothes always turn yellow.

I had a turkey sammie, apple, carrots and a Kashi bar. After this meal I am super satisfied. I calculated it out and it is just…

What's the point?
Now that my training is over for the full marathon I kind of feel like, “What’s the point?” about my runs. I am not setting out on a run with a specific mileage goal. I’m basically just running to run. Most of the time that’s okay, but it is hard to make myself run when it’s so cold outside and…

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…
