Workout Shakeup (or shift)
Today I was itching to do weights even knowing that it'll be the insane high rep workout (2 sets of 18 reps). Guess that's what a good rest day will do for you. But, I'll behave myself and wait until tomorrow.
I feel like I don't have too much to talk about since I'm not posting weights. My cardio will be a run, so that's not too exciting...or...it could be. I won't be running at lunch, it'll be after work. Yep, after work on a Friday?! What, no happy hour, no pizza, but a run. Serious crazy talk I know ;-)
My sister is coming up to stay the night though. Very excited about that and should have pictures to post tomorrow.

Fun Facts Friday
So, I suppose I'll do Fun Facts Friday again. It seems like everyone enjoyed it, and I really enjoyed your fun facts (that's a hint to play along of course).

- I have a bizarre fear of wearing dresses (I wear them mind you) for fear that I'll come out of the bathroom with the back tucked into my undies. I'm seriously tempted to wear shorts with dresses (I actually did that in junior high).
- A photograph of my legs used to hang in the women's restroom of a high-end French restaurant in town. The owner also dabbled in photography and took some ballet pictures, one of the tutu down. Only I knew that it was my legs LOL.
- I'm running a 5K tonight! It's the 3rd Annual MacArthur Park 5K. Yep, that's why no Pizza Friday or earlier workout. My sister is running too (this will be her first attempt at running a race). There will be beer, pizza, and a band following, but no veggie pizza worth indulging in. I'll be posting results tomorrow.
Here are my new duds including running glasses
So, now it's your turn!
I used to wear shorts under my dresses in elementary school. My mom didn't like it, but all my friends did it so I wanted to too. LOL
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the race tomorrow! Can't wait to hear all about it!
I hate to feed your fear but I did have the skirt tucked in problem one time. After that I was much more careful. ;-) Thankfully my hubby noticed before I had gone more than two steps out of the ladies room. Talk about mortified. Oh yeah, and it was when we had just started dating. Nothing like making a good first impression. LOL.
ReplyDeleteFun Facts Friday again....
1) I don't like to exercise but do it anyway because I know it is good for me.
2) I have an almost irrational fear of aging. Needless to say my impending birthday is not something I am looking forward to. ;-)
3) If I could move anywhere I would go to Italy. It is the place I feel most at home other than the US.
Good luck tonight! I will be thinking about you.

thank you so much for your post! im trying to find that balance and i think it'll all be good. ur advice is always very helpful thank you!! btw that outfit is awesome! i love black too, simple and doesnt show sweat marks hehe.
ReplyDeleteOMG! that is so funny re: the dress fear! And GOOD LUCK on the run!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it - another similarity, I got my sis into running while she was going through her divorce too. It's been a huge bonding thing for us, but I'm sure you knew that already. ;) Have fun at the race - you will rock it! You are super-duper fast as it is! At least in my book :)
ReplyDeleteFun Fact about me: I grew up clogging. My competitive clogging team once went on a cruise (for FREE) to perform as the entertainment on the ship!! :)

Naomi @ The Tao of Me Glad I'm not the only one who wore the shorts under the skirt. Oh, the race was tonight! Strange for an evening race I know.
ReplyDeleteAlicia @ Vegan Epicurean Love the dress story! Thank you for sharing!!
Kelsey @ Snacking Squirrel Black is so easy isn't it! And you can be drenched and no one can tell!!
Jolene @ To Be Determined Thank you ma'am.
Jessica @ EatDrinkBreatheSweat Too funny on the running. I swear we're long lost sisters or something. It's just nuts!
Emily @ Emily Eats Clean Love that fun fact!! That's great!
Hey Doll! This is a great post :) Hahaha, I totally know what you are talking about that dress issue! I used to wear shorts under mine too. Skits are weird because there is nothing there but your undies! That is really too close if something was too happen ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great night! I bet you did great on the race!
XXOO
You must have some smokin legs!
ReplyDeletehmm...fun fact Friday. I hate most white stuff--ranch, sour cream, mayo, etc. yuck
those ARE fun facts! love the legs one! hope your 5k was a blast!
ReplyDeleteKris @ iheartwellness Exactly - it's just so breezy! LOL
ReplyDeleteLisa @ I'm an Okie I am kind of with you on the white "stuff". I had never even thought about it. Not sure if legs were exactly smokin LOL but it was a pretty BW picture.
Janetha @ Meals & Moves Thank you ma'am!
I love Fun Fact Friday!!!
ReplyDeleteHello, just stumbled across your lovely little blog! I love your fun facts. I usually do a post called Adventure Friday. My favorite fun fact about myself is that obsessed with ducks! Hope you're having a good weekend!
