Sunday morning I got up early for my third half marathon in a month. Spring is a great time of year for local races in the Sacramento area making it easy to train for one and keep the the momentum going with races just about every weekend. I saw a lot of the same runners at all three […]
Peace-Love-Run Half & The Weekend List
Hi and Happy Easter Sunday! Easter seems oddly early this year, right? And we have absolutely no plans for it, not sure if that’s sad or awesome. But both my sisters have other plans, so we’re chilling today and may actually see a movie later after trying a vegan french toast recipe. That’s probably good […]
Colorful Weekend List
This weekend has been so great that I’m not ready to go back to work tomorrow. It’s been relaxing and productive. After a week of solid rain, the weed and grass growth in the yard has been insane. Literally one day, nothing, next day 3-foot-tall spiky weed is there! It was nice getting the front […]
2016 Shamrock’n Half Marathon
It’s nice, sunny, dry, and in the 70s here today. But it wasn’t Sunday for the 2016 Shamrock’n Half Marathon! My sister and I drove to Raley Field together very early in the dark, cold, wind, and rain to meet friends and our shoes got drenched just dashing through the flooded parking lot. Somehow, even with the […]
Rain for the Weekend List
Rain, we’re finally getting tons of it here! Along with strong, crazy winds yesterday which the dogs were not thrilled about for their backyard trips. I’ve got to get them out for a long walk and myself out for a long run before it starts again today! This week has been draining and I did not […]
Snow and Great Eats for the Weekend List
It has been a week here preparing for Christmas and working. Usually working over the holidays does not bother me too much, but this year seemed extra stressful for some reason and I really did not want to be at the office on Christmas Eve with everyone else on vacation. Better put in for extra […]
New Name for the Weekend List
What do you think of the new domain and name? I’ve been meaning to update the name for awhile now since this blog has shifted to being about running and all things vegan as well as raw vegan recipes. When I first started this blog over 6 years ago, I was driven to transition to […]
Beating the Blerch for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday morning, I’m enjoying a quiet morning listening to the rain outside while the sun is just starting to come up – so pretty. It also rained last Sunday here and we got caught in pretty heavy downpours on our long runs. It was fine, running in the rain was actually kind of refreshing […]
Weekend List w/ Another Half Done
It is nice to sit down and catch up after a busy morning. I ran the Urban Cow Half Marathon this morning for the 6th year in a row and hopefully I can keep that momentum going. But more on that shortly! Earlier this week I ran to Trader Joe’s to restock the kitchen after our […]
Back to it with the Weekend List
Back to reality for us after camping at Bodega Dunes for the last 5 days! Being disconnected and spending time with family is nice, but so are clean showers, fast internet, and bathrooms nearby! We are wiped and washing tons of smokey clothes and bed sheets, so this will be a quick list! But more […]
