Fun Facts Friday - One Year & Giveaway

Fun Facts Friday - One Year

  • There have been many many many workouts. 
  • There have been more recipes than I can even begin to count.
  • There have been lots of Pizza Fridays.
  • I learned that you can have friends that you have never met in person.
  • I enjoyed a weekend in Branson with Jason, my dad and step-mom.
  • I discovered a passion for running and logged my longest run of 8 miles.
  • I went to the beach (of course).
  • I had my first giveaway (see below). 

Over the course of this year since starting my blog, a lot has happened. It's not all been perfect, life isn't. I faced overtraining syndrome, I have battled some depression, I have also grown and tried so many new things - stepping out of comfort zones in a big way. I have made some amazing friends, found unbelievable inspiration, and learned so much. I definitely feel like I have grown more over this past year, maybe it's been the blogging that has helped me keep track of both progress and even a bit of regression at times.

    I Run to Feel Alive

    Today is National Running Day . Guess what I did this morning? Cycling? Nope. Lifting? Nope. I bet you thought kickboxing right? Nope. Running? But of course! I actually sort of planned my running days this week just so I could participate this year. I didn't get to run last year and didn't even know about it the year before. But running has become such an integral part of my life and who I am, that I couldn't miss this year. Basically, I run to feel alive . It calms me, it helps me work through life, it's often a reason to get out of bed. No matter how tough a run is, it makes you feel ... period. My plan was to get in 5 miles (got in 5.5 actually). It was about 10 degrees warmer this morning and definitely more humid. That always makes for a tougher run. We decided to take a different route today. Well, it was really only a few streets over different, but still. The point is we took a different street. Sometimes that's good, sometimes not. I did realize th

    Vacation Day 2 - Running, Reading, Relaxing

    Running This morning I woke up a bit before 7 am. Of course, we had gone to sleep by 9....on vacation no less. I had thought I might try for an outdoor run, but the temps were already a humid 83 degrees by 8 am. So, I took my run to the treadmill. I had the Food Network to keep me occupied for a pretty decent 5 mile run. Running and watching tv isn't so bad ;-) I did 3 miles, then 4 1:00 athletic intervals then finished up another mile to round it out to and even 5. After stretching and rolling (yep, brought my TriggerPoint kit ), we packed up the cooler with lunch and headed down to the beach. Not a bad way to start the day if you ask me. Beach Time & Stair Cardio We set up our little umbrella camp and proceeded to just relax. I was excited to start one of the books I brought along with me: Alice Sebold's The Almost Moon . I've read her memoir, Lucky , and her first work of fiction, The Lovely Bones . . We were out for a few hours before taking a break.
