Hello! I’ve been spending some QT with my foam roller and carbs this week. What have you been up to?
This morning I took the day off from running to do a little strength training action. It’s not the most run in the world, but it’s good for you.
Then, I had a quick errand to run and after that met up with SR for a walk. I had to use the restroom at the coffee shop so I was obligated to buy this…
And since I’m sipping on some iced coffee I guess it’s time to have a virtual coffee date (even though I’d prefer to meet up for happy hour).
Virtual Coffee Date
If we were having coffee today and taking a walk I would tell ya…
1. I don’t care that you’re embarrassed about my ridiculous visor. The sun is a silent killer.
2. Take down my new phone # because the camera on the Lumia beats all and I’m going to start using it full time.
3. My June is going to be crazy. I have four trips planned for the month. So, if I’m MIA just assume I’m busy or hiding from the world somewhere in a closet or something. I’m already stressed about it.
4. I didn’t love Fancy at first, but I can’t get enough. (Cue me singing the chorus and dancing around like a weirdo.)
5. I have been invited to speak at a Career Day at a local elementary school. That is crazy. I guess some peeps want to grow up and be a red-headed Mexican who tells bad jokes. Aim high kids, aim high.
6. I’ve been reading a lot about the Isla Vista murders and misogyny. I saw a video about it the other day and can’t find it to share now (it’s a girl’s commentary with clips of his video and the forums). It goes so far beyond that event and it’s alarming and very sad.
By New Republic – Let’s Call it what it was – Misogynist Extremism
From Mashable – The killer’s manifesto and events.
I have a lot to say, but our walk is over and I gotta get going… just wanted to share those articles in case you’re interested.
ProCompression Shake Out Run!
The Rock N Roll San Diego Marathon and Half Marathon is this weekend!! Pro is a SD company and is hosting a fun run – info below. I am pretty sure it’s 3.5 miles and note 35 like I originally read…
Question: If we were having coffee today – what would you tell me?
Could we go for fro yo instead?! lol I’d say my legs were dead for my long run this morning but it’s those runs that make you better.
RE: the video you couldn’t find, is it this one (laci green): http://youtu.be/HPFcspwbrq8
I grew up (and still live) just outside of the Isla Vista neighborhood. We used to party there all the time as teenagers. You hear about these tragedies in the news, but never think they would hit your own community.
I would ask if we could get froyo after coffee. 😉
I’ll tell you that it’s quiet here in the office on a Friday lunch break and it’s great to catch up on your blog.
My countertops were installed! But I have to wait until tomorrow to have a sink in my kitchen.
That means I have to clean.
I wish I was running RnRSD this year! Can i participate virtually haha
That I think you’ll be awesome at career day! And that I had an awesome interval run today!
I would tell you I cannot wait to see you IRL on Saturday!
I would tell you that I when I went for fro yo with my niece on Monday I saw they had watermelon flavor!
I would tell you that I am learning to like biking while on injury forced running hiatus.
I took spin classes way way back in the day when I couldn’t run and it was fun 🙂 Get better soon!
I’d tell you that I’m still dreaming about my Disney World vacation.
I’d tell you that the tragic murder-homicide in Mission Viejo is heartbreaking.
I’d tell you that I am busier than a one-armed paper hanger!
Have a great weekend! I’m particularly happy to welcome Friday this week. I need it…
Have fun at the rock n roll race they are so much fun!
I’ve never seen that music video before- I love that it’s Clueless!
I just saw it day before yesterday so I had to share 🙂
Ahh so cool you get to speak at career day! That must make you feel very fancy!!!
Oh man chica, this is what I would tell you. I finally started my blog. You, skinny, chicrunner, zucchini, and hrg were the first inspirations. RRs farah and cindy got me hooked. Hoping to make an impact in the running community. I would tell you to KEEP my phone number! Next time you’re in AZ you’re hanging with TSA and RR. You’re VIP homie! And speaking of VIP, I’m struggling over what to wear friday night. I had to google cocktail attire. Rutro… And I would honestly tell you I’m looking forward more to the shake out run than the actual race!
Ha! I love that you googled that 🙂
I would tell you that I am supposed to be packing, but procrastinating just a little bit longer.
That my husband graduates from medical school THIS WEEKEND, our family gets to come visit, and we move NEXT WEEK!! AHHH!!! Oh top of all that my running has been going GREAT!
Exciting stuff! Hope the move goes smooth 🙂
I just found out that a colleague of mine used to take Zumba classes with Iggy Azalea’s mom in Roseburg, OR.
Ha! No big.
Career day! That’ll be fun!
The video reminded me of how much I love Clueless 🙂
I would say, “dang it is hot outside and we need more iced coffee” and then I would march us on over to Dunkin Donuts because, well, Dunkin Donuts! Of course I’m in Florida so, there’s that. What was the question again…..
I wish we could get DD together!! Lucky 🙂
