Hello! I had a bad night of sleep last night because I thought I was going to be killed. Yeah, I was pretty convinced there was someone in the closet waiting for Ben to leave. I need to relax, or see a therapist. Maybe both.
Anyways, this morning I wanted to run, but knew I should give my legs a break after 2 solid days of good running. I’m trying this new thing called moderation – Don’t expect it to last very long and it doesn’t apply to baked goods or chocolate!
So, I decided to do some moves without weights for a workout. (Too many dub-yas.) Repeated 3 times:
Split squat, alt. | 12 each side |
Push ups, girl style | 12 |
Hip raises, foot on coffee table, alt. | 12 |
Donkey kicks | 12 |
Plank | 30 seconds |
I also brought some fitness tools on this trip – but we’ll play with those later Then, I went on a 2 mile walk to Dunkin Donuts Told ya I’d have it every day.
After breakfast Ben’s mom and I hit up the after Christmas sales.
I got this fun maxi dress. Maybe next year I’ll learn how to dress decent. Maybe.
Maybe I’ll also learn how to put together a decent looking lunch. Nah. I’m not that ambitious.
Maybe I’ll also learn how to turn down a piece of freshly baked blueberry banana bread. Okay, now I’m just being ridiculous.
I’m still working on my plans for 2012. Stay tuned online.

If my meals have to actually look pretty in the new year I’m screwed! I think the maxi dress is cute in one of those “I’d like it on someone else, just not myself” ways.

I love working out without weights! I don’t think I’m tall enough for a maxi dress, but you’re going to rock it. My fitness goals are to push past the 5k distance slowly so I don’t get injured.

Great goal! Good luck 🙂

That dress is very cute! Can’t wait to hear about your goals for 2012, I’m still thinking about what mine will be. I am dreaming of doing my first full marathon and think that might just be one of my resolutions…I definitely consider your blog a big motivator for me to achieve that goal 🙂

Ben’s mom sounds like a dreamboat. She can bake for me anytime!
Brittany @ GOtheXtraMile says
A workout without weights is just as awesome! I would totally have dunkin coffee everyday, but I’d be broke!
Kara says
I think you should have a 2012 resolution to never put soup on a salad again 🙂
runeatrepeat says
I knew I would get busted for that, but it really was good!
Corrie Anne says

The dress is cute, and it is great you get along with your MIL. I like you fit the DD fix into your workout 🙂
I took V to a hotel waterpark and we were there for 4 hours. Does that count as a workout? I am exhausted.
OOH and I NEED the recipe thankyouverymuch
Heather @ Run Eat Play says
I love your maxi dress. Maxi dresses always look weird in me.
That blueberry banana bread looks delicious – I love blueberries!
janae @hungryrunnergirl.com says
LOVE YOUR NEW DRESS and I am so happy about all the DD you are getting in. Moderation…what’s that?
Lorin says
Oops I meant dressing decent haha..my bad.
Lorin says
I need to work on looking decent too..:P If only I actually liked spending money on clothes.
Becca says
I started working out without weights several months ago. I think the results are much better for me. I love that dress, btw.
Tina @ Best Body Fitness says
I know my big goal for 2012 – a full. I want it. Bad. Thinking of the RNR San Diego…you’re the first person I’ve told that to.
I also want that blueberry banana bread in a bad way. Send some my way? 😉
Corrie Anne says
oooo yeah. i know that’s on my list too!
runeatrepeat says
I feel so honored that I was the first person to be told 🙂
I wish I could send you some bread, instead of eating it all…
Josie @ happycorredora.com says
Nice choice of dress… i think rainbow is perfect for redheads. Also… do you have the recipe for the banana bread?? 🙂
