Hang in there, Friday is almost here. I’m ready, it’s been a stressful and emotionally draining week. With a marathon less for 4 weeks away (ack!!!!!) I am feeling the stress and strains of training and injury paranoia. And really focusing on cleaning up my eats more with whole starches, lots of fruits and veggies, […]
Tough Miles for the Weekend List
Whoa, another weekend is flying by too fast. It’s been a productive and fun weekend so far that included more steamed spaghetti squash with hummus dressing and kale edamame salad. Spicy Thai cashew tofu stir fry. A deal shopping trip to Grocery Outlet. Miko enjoying a warm bed and blanket fresh out of the dryer. And […]
Still Keeping It Easy
I gotta admit I am wiped this week! I guess that’s to be expected this far into marathon training, I’m glad I’m tapering my long run this weekend before taking on the 20-miler next since I taking it a little easy resting pains here and there after Sunday’s 18-miler. And I’m starting to look forward to […]
Fun & Simple
Gosh, November already?! Well, happy World Vegan Day! I know, everyday is world vegan day for vegans. But what started as a November 1st celebration has expanded to an entire month long vegan celebration and is a great excuse for vegans to get out more and be a positive influence for the loving lifestyle. I celebrated by wearing […]
Burning Through the Week
I am so glad this week is almost over and looking forward to sleeping well tonight since I haven’t been the last couple of nights with work stress and odd dreams. Miko has no problem getting comfy for a deep sleep. I’m jealous this week! Running is going, I got a few good treadmill runs in […]
Fast, Creative Eats
The Pebble Health app has been updated with an attitude, it gets snarky at the end of the day if I’m just below my usual step count asking if it was a rest day or was I stuck inside. Pfft! It’s all fun and I like seeing these updates from it. And the sweet pups […]
Unlucky Potluck for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday! I just finished our last bit of gift wrapping and planning to venture out on a run in the overcast and cold weather shortly. I had a productive day yesterday of wrapping, finishing up holiday donations, and shopping at Trader Joe’s. Not enjoying the holiday traffic and sharing the roads with so many stressed out […]
Weekend List
Happy relaxing Sunday, I hope it’s been a good weekend so far and it’s not too hectic with Thanksgiving planning. I’m planning a trip to Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s later today and not entirely looking forward to the crowds, but I’ll still have fun because how can shopping at Whole Foods not be fun? […]
Kicky Cheesy Avocado Sauce
A tricky thing about winter is driving to work in the dark and leaving work in the dark and it’s getting closer to those days. Miko and I try to enjoy the last bit of daylight playing in the backyard when I get home while we can. As long as it’s not too cold, he […]
Taking it Easy for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday! We’re supposed to get more rain this week and temps have been in the 40s and 30s, what a difference from a couple of weeks ago! I’m not complaining, we need the rain and I get to break out the boots. Anyway, I made it home from our training trip Friday evening after […]
