This is not a Running Blog…

12 May

This is not a running blog…

But I ran 16 miles this morning. 20120512_092227

9 minute average pace. Felt great!20120512_092320

This is not a running blog…

But, I made sure to hydrate and refuel within 60 minutes of my long run. IMG_0830 (800x533)

This is not a running blog, but I did finally hit up lululemon to use a gift card that’s been burning a hole in my pocket spibelt Winking smile

This is not a running blog, but I only bought running gear (no yoga stuff) from lulu.IMG_0859 (800x600)

More hydrating!IMG_0863 (600x800)

Random blood pressure check while shopping.IMG_0865 (800x600)

This is not a running blog, but Salty Carbs are the best pre-run fuel. (*I just happened to eat this after my run for lunch.)IMG_0868 (800x533)

This is not a running blog, but I got a little crazy with the lulu running gear today.

(I am still not sold on their running capris, but I’m giving them another chance since my other pair are too long/hot to wear now. Plus there was a some frustration with the 3 way mirror in the dressing room. No comment.)IMG_0879 (800x533)

This week after a convo with SR I told Ben, “I don’t think of RER as a running blog…”

He said, “RUN eat repeat, what genre do you think it should be?”

I said, “I don’t know, whatever the heck I feel like blogging about blog…”

Maybe this is a running blog?IMG_0871 (800x533)Sometimes.

    I wished we have a Lululemon here! I’m still trying to understand the craze and raving everyone has about them.

    And I thought I was the only one with a “whatever I feel like blotting about” blog 😉

    16mile run? Yeah, definitely not a running blog. Those are for crazy people that run crazy fast for a long time.
    Oh, wait. That’s you!
    Yep, running blog. 🙂

    I’m not a runner and I love your blog, so I guess it’s not a running blog!

      Ditto.

      Honestly, I could never-ever-never do that run Monica. Afraid not. Possibly in my next life.

    Whatever your blog is, it is one of my favorites! I love reading it.
    I actually just put a link to it on my blog (new thing I just started) under the websites page. Hope you don’t mind. I wanted others to know the good things I’m reading.

    Well…you do write about walking more than running (I think), but it IS called RUN eat repeat. So…I like running and snowboarding best so I think you should make it a running/snowboarding blog. Okay?

    Way to go on the 16 miles!!!

    I’m not a runner at alll and I never was (I swam though) — but I love your blog. So whatever it is, it works 🙂 For me.

    Congrats on the 16-miler 🙂 And did you see that the Lulu at the Spectrum is opening soon to a BIGGER store. *squeal* This probably isn’t good for my budget!

    I get your dilemma – but you do post a lot about running. Even when you’re not really talking about it, I think it’s an undertone – you just also post about having a REAL life. I think it’s what makes your blog so appealing.

    You run a lot for this to not be a running blog…. ; )

    I participate in Lululemon retail therapy every couple of months. I really love their Cool Racerback tanks. What did you get?

    It’s a GREAT blog, either way! 🙂
    What kind of running crops did you get? I have been wanting to try some Lulu pants for running, but haven’t known where to even start!?!

    The Lulu Run: Back on Track crops are the BEST!!! They’re a higher rise than the others, so it doesn’t hit your waist/hip at an unflattering part and it won’t ride down when you run 🙂 And lunch looks amazing. I think I’ll have that for dinner 😉

      Totally agree, I LOVE those for running, or walking, or sitting, or hand standing …
