Today I could not get my speed right.
First I did some hill repeats too slow. Then, I ate too fast. If I could just get better timing I would be a fast, slim runner with excellently delivered jokes* ย ๐
After my speedy hill repeats I had a simple breakfast of a Perfect 10 bagel with Almond Butter and Jelly (I always say jelly really aggressively. Is that weird?)
The rest of the day went like this: work,work,workโฆ
After work I took a short walk around the neighborhood as I waited for Ben to be done. I am not loving being cooped up in an office all day – I’m going stir-crazy! Being an adult is overrated kids. But long walks make it better ๐
Then, I came home to dinner and saw Benโs mom sent us a Care Package! She is the sweetest.
RER Quiz:
True or False โ Broken Cookies are better because the calories leak out.
True. Totally true.
Laura says

Casey @ Chasing Casey says

how do you like them?
Kaitlin With Honey says
Soooo true. Obviously!
Natalie says
Hahaha.. Love your cookie quiz! Calories leaking out..I wish!
MarathonVal says
Haha your cookie calories ‘rules’ sound similar to some of mine… I truly believe that if you go crazy overeating on the same one food than you won’t gain weight… it’s ludicrous but even as I type this I really do kinda believe it’s true… or at least I must since I continue to eat like this sometimes lol!
Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) says
If the cookie is whole, I won’t eat it…too many calories. But if it’s a broken, a few pieces here or there won’t hurt right?
Melissa says
You crack me up! I hope that you’re liking the new job!
Amber K says
I personally hate broken cookies, but especially broken chips. I pick out all of the whole ones and then put the bag or box away. My husband gets those lovely leftovers. =)
Dorry says
I love broken cookies! ๐

Hi! Been reading for quite awhile and just noticed that we wear the same running shoes ๐ Anyway, just wondering if that’s a Run ID tag on your left shoe and if so – does it move around? I’ve been debating getting one, but don’t want to feel it there…
Love your blog btw! I’ve been taking a few weeks *cough*months*cough* hiatus from my own and have enjoyed just being a reader for awhile. However, today will be my return to the blogosphere! ….I think ๐
Have a great day! Becky
Stacie @ Imperfectly Healthy says
Haha! Totally true that one! ๐
Nichole says
I always ask my bakery for broken cookies. Works like a charm. And to know NOW that they have lesser calories. Done!
Bella (Stilettos on the Streetcar) says
Hilarious! I love your take on calories. I would also like to propose that calories are entirely removed from food on your birthday and during Christmas dinner. ๐
JeNnifer@knackfornutrition says
It’s like you know me!! Haha seriously running too slow and eating too fast is the story of my life. When you figure out how to flip it around, I will be hear eagerly waiting for the magic answer! ๐

The broken cookies would haunt me until I ate every last little piece. I’m neurotic and cannot stand to see little pieces mixed in with the bigger cookies; I’d remove all the big pieces, set them aside and eat all the little pieces and crumbs. Simply to clear my mind. And that is why I’ll never drop those last five pounds. ๐
