I don’t even know where to begin. Guess we’ll start with that! I am a proud new owner of an iPhone, and I couldn’t be more excited. I got it this afternoon and have been playing with it ever since. Can’t wait to have fun with it this weekend in Boston! [Speaking of Boston, let [...]

It was really hard to wake up this morning for some reason. But I did it and, against some of my good senses, did Level 2 and Level 3 of the 30 Day Shred. Whew. What a fabulous 36-minute workout. Loved it and it totally got me energized for the day. After a shower, it [...]

I was up and back in the routine quickly this morning with an easy 40-minute run. And I mean quickly since I needed to be at work early which means an early alarm. I guess I was in a different place on my route when the sun came up because I saw one of the [...]

So much to say! This will be a bit of a rambling post. First of all, posting yesterday just did not happen. Life has been super busy lately, and a little bit stressful. Consequently my meals yesterday were super-random (we’re talking broccoli for a nighttime snack…what the heck?). This morning I woke up early and [...]

I decided this afternoon that it was too damn hot to do my workout outside tonight. We’re talking 110*, heat advisories, etc. I had a long day and wanted to head indoors for a workout instead. So after debating a few options, I decided to go home, change, and bike to the gym where I [...]

It’s 3:30 and I’m just starting my blog post…should give you an idea of how busy my day has been. And it only gets crazier from here! Long post today! Are y’all ready? We’ll start with dinner last night, which was prepared and eaten quickly before heading to a baseball game. I started by cooking [...]

I had a little time before bed last night, so I hit the mat for a short Lunar Flow yoga practice to get rid of some of the day’s stresses. It’s a sequence focused much more on stretching than strengthening, and it felt really nice. Then after eight beautiful hours of sleep last night, I [...]

Too Long

First of all, can anyone explain to me why it’s a lot harder to get up at 6 a.m. on a Monday for a shorter run than it is to get up at 5 a.m. on a Saturday for a longer run? Oh well. The important thing is that I got up this morning and [...]

Oh lunch was good! I enjoyed my panini on fresh whole wheat bread so much yesterday that I decided to make another one today. But this time I used my one of my favorite combos ever: apple and almond butter. I had to make the almond butter first, so it was nice and hot when [...]

Too bad I can’t sleep in past 8. Oh well! When I got up, I thought of different breakfasts I could make in order to take advantage of my extra time. Pancakes, French toast, etc… But no, all I was craving was a nice yogurt bowl. Oh well again! Here’s about 3/4 cup of Greek [...]
