Thank you so so much for all of your amazing comments yesterday. You are all the absolute best.
Monday morning –> 11 miles completed before the Brookers woke up. 9.63 of them outside and then when I got home I was absolutely frozen so I ran 1.37 miles on my treadmill to warm back up and it worked like a charm.
And then we read Elmo books upside down while I foam rolled. I am super happy because my calves are feeling 100% again. All it took was scraping, a day off and lots of foam rolling (all things that I never did for the first 10 years that I ran ((aka why I was always injured)).
Matching socks. It doesn’t happen often so I have to make sure to point it out to you when it does.
Ever seen a salad selfie? I got really creative with this picture.
I like to get my week’s worth of vegetables in one sitting. I also enjoy getting a month’s worth of ranch dressing in one sitting too.
A few hours later and my sis and I took the kids to go to National Froyo Day. The yogurt and toppings were free. I am going to tell you something that probably won’t surprise you. We got to Yogurtland so early that we were first in line for the free froyo. I was pretty proud of myself.
$0 for this happiness.
The usual trying to eat Brooke’s fingers and making her laugh hysterically over it followed by dinner at home.
And then we had our Monday night ritual of watching the train wreck known as The Bachelor while eating super nutritious foods. Back to just one dessert a day starting today;)
Brooke was having her own little date while we were watching.
Off to the track for speed. 12 x 400. I am focusing on taking one 400 at a time and not thinking about how many more I have to do as I am doing it. My other goal is for my last 3 to be my fastest 3.

I love love love socks. Most of the time mine do match because they are always crazy colors and patterns. My kids however… different story. I can only imagine how long the line got a yogurt land after you guys got out of there! Good job being one of the first! I just made some great chocolate granola bars last night. Ready to make some more desserts!
Emmeline @RunForThePizza
I’ve actually never seen an episode of the Bachelor! I do wear matching socks but I’m weirdly OCD about that. Did 12x2min hills on a 10% grade on 7 total miles today (just finished). Loved it :)
angie
Your honesty and strength is humbling, I love all your posts Janae, they inspire me. Keep going you are an incredible woman
Rhoda @3cheaprunners
I am wearing matching socks right now and I usually do, I am exciting like that!
Yes, I am watching the Bachelor!! Not a Juan Pablo fan :(
Tiffany
Me either! I was so excited when I heard he was the next Bachelor, but he’s super dull (I organized my spice rack while watching if that tells you anything!). And after last night’s episode, I actually feel bad for the girls…he was so rude to Clare as no one forced him to do anything…he should give his lecture on “proper behavior” to himself!
Kari @ Running Ricig
I usually wear matching socks, but then again, most of my socks are white, so it’s hard to mismatch them.
I haven’t watched the bachelor probably since the first season. I don’t know why, but I just can’t get into it.
Today’s run will probably be 5 miles on the treadmill so I don’t slip and fall on the snow and ice outside.
Laura@twinsontherun
I’m watching and Juan Pablo drove me crazy at first but he’s growing on me! His women, though? He’s got some crazies!
The last dessert I had was blackberry pie and the blackberries are from the same place that you went berry picking!
I’m just starting to workout again after a few months off (6 week old baby) and I’m so excited! I’m taking it slow and just walking a few miles to gauge where my fitness level is.
Meaghan
The bachelor is so weird this season! I can’t decide if I like Juan Pablo or not…
Today I have a 3 mile run + barre class on the schedule! Last dessert I had was a large portion of a bag of jelly hearts…best candy ever!

Hollie
I can’t get over the pickles in the salad. I do not care for pickles in the slightest. I’m glad you are able to go to the track. 12 is so intense but I know it’s going to really help your half soon. I am just doing an easy run today, trying to recover from my weekend race.
The Running Schlub
Unfortunately I have to wear matching socks for work, would be much funner if we could do thing like that.
No Bachelor for me!
Last dessert, probably oreos, those little discs are delightful.
Training plan has me doing 3-5 miles on the bike, feel the IT Band getting a little tight, your explanation of the foam roller and injuries seems pretty familiar. Once again you solve all my problems :)

Nicole@TheGirlWhoRanEverywhere
I see fruit on that froyo!!!! Are you cheating on chocolate toppings?! (just kidding)
Today i ran 5 miles before work and when I get out, I am going to do do 6 x 400 (i would love to do more but i do not have time!)
Good luck at the track!
Ali
I am watching the Bachelor this season too. I haven’t watched last night’s episode yet, but I have no doubt it’s dramatic.
Kim@hungryhealthy
Free Yogurtland=best day ever! I’m a Juan Pablo fan, but I also do admit he can be a bit cheesy.
Kristina @ Blog About Running
Today I have four easy miles on the schedule :)
I have learned a tip when washing socks, you have to either put them into a garment bag or kind of attach the two that make up a pair together (you know the way you do when you put them away…?). They probably don’t get as clean that way or something but I always have matching socks!
Laura H.
i don’t usually go to fro-yo places, or maybe i would know….what are those yellow things in your yogurtland fro yo?
the last dessert i had was dark chocolate non-pareils. i really need some ice cream in my life soon, though. i haven’t had any yet this year :-) (lol, i know that is only a month….)
melissa @ TheRedHeadedRunner
I’m hood I don’t car if my socks match EXCEPT at work…gotta keep it classy. Today im cross training and im going to listen to an audio book to see if it helps keep me engaged in the workout longer :)
Are you scarping on your own now or are you seeing a pro?
Melissa

My socks rarely match. Luckily the temps have warmed up enough that I can wear ballet flats and not even worry about work socks for a while. I haven’t had dessert since Sunday…which seems like a lifetime ago! I should change that ASAP. My workout today is piloxing. I tried it a few months ago and hated it but decided to give it another go since I also hated running when I started;)
Shay @ Whine Less, Breathe More
My socks always match. It bothers me if they don’t. My youngest daughter is the opposite. She makes it a point to wear mismatched socks.
The last dessert I had was a chocolate chip cookie last night. I need a little sugar in my life daily.
Today’s workout will be trying to get to and from work in this major storm event, including thundersnow. Ha! Seriously, city offices are shut down, Dept of Transportation is urging everyone to stay home. Should be an adventure! After that, it will either be a workout video at home or some quality time on my elliptical.
Kristina @ Fast and Foodiest
I always wear matching socks- mine are mostly neon so it is easy to pick them out. My workout is going to be something- but there is nothing formal on the schedule. at least 7 miles. We brought home a new puppy, Isaac Newton yesterday so right now his schedule is dictating ours!
I started the bachelor- plan on catching up soon :) I love trashy TV! (in secret. not so secret anymore!)
Jessica
Where is your shirt from?! I love it!!
Kattrina
Evan loves it when I eat his fingers too – he finds it so hilarious. I don’t watch the Bachelor so I have not idea who Juan Pablo is – oh well. I ate some chocolate chips last night, does that count as dessert? And I have a short run planned for lunch today. I had to travel for work and didn’t get any runs in the entire time, so I am anxious to get back out there. Half marathon is less than three weeks away!
Liz @ Carpe Diem and Run
I am going to try to get froyo today – I wonder if it will be free here too? ;)
Shari
I ran 5 miles monday and lifted weights, then back to studying for the Bar Exam. Woo Hoo!!! Tuesday is elliptical, biking and reading…..and after a shower….mani/pedi. Got to keep the toes and feet in good shape. I’ve been a runner for just over 15 years and can proudly say that I’ve never lost a toenail and don’t plan to in the future, so I keep the toes short and well cared for.
I have to say, that I don’t know many people who can eat the amount of froyo and goodies you eat without it affecting their waistline. I am jealous!! I know I couldn’t!!
Beth @ Running with the Sunrise
Aw, poo, I didn’t even know there was a national fro yo day. Sad to have missed out on that, even if I had to pay for fro yo. My socks are matching and they pretty much always match. I’m not cool enough to wear mismatched socks. ;) Good luck with your speed work today!
Meredith @ The Cookie ChRUNicles
My socks usually match but I wouldn’t care if they didn’t…Over the weekend I had an epic Cold Stone Sundae and a brownie sundae at Cheesecake Factory. Gotta love dessert!
Blaire @ Just Been Running
I am actually wearing matching socks today but I am usually in the same boat with the mismatched socks :)
I’ve been watching the Bachelor and I always think it’s hilarious…we shall see who he picks!
My dessert last night was greek yogurt, blueberries, and honey…and then some caramels and Twizzlers :)
My work out today is strength training at lunch becuase I ran yesterday!
Liz @ Tip Top Shape
My last dessert were chocolate chip cinnamon roll cookies! Pretty happy about that :)
And I usually wear matching socks unless it’s just white ones where I mix and match because no one really notices.
Linda @ running4two
It’s so funny how babies love getting their fingers “eaten”. Annabelle and I did the same thing for about 20 minutes straight last night…the cutest giggling ever. :)
Last dessert I had…a big bowl of ice cream, half coffee and half oreo/cookie dough/chocolate swirl with chocolate sauce. I fully support brownies and ice cream at any and all times of day.
Amanda @ .running with spoons.
I’m actually getting pretty good at managing to get matching socks, but I can’t always promise that they won’t have a hole in them ;)
Ashley @ Saving Money in your Twenties
I used to always wear mismatched socks!! Now I mostly have white ones so it’s less obvious :) PS I love your shirt!!
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats
I don’t have a TV so I can’t watch until today, which reminds me, I need to watch ASAP before I read any spoilers! I LOVE the Bachelor!
Chelsea @ A Fit LittleOne
I completely forgot that yesterday was national yogurt day! Last dessert I had was Sunday at 9:45 AM haha I was craving a large Ghiradelli Chocolate bar. My socks always match, I’m a bit OCD with myself, so it would probably drive me crazy all day I imagine. HIIT run this morning for me :)
mary @ minutes per mile
Oh JP… you are sort of cheesy and don’t have an extensive vocabulary, but I still love you.
megan d
I think 50% of JP time on TV talking he says either “ai yai yai” or “what to say. What to say”. Nothing JP. You don’t know what to say so just go back to sucking face cause we all know that is what you are about to do next….After you cheesily brush the hair out of ______ ‘s face.
End rant. Lol
Molly
LOL! I had to comment on this because I totally agree! This show is so horrible but I cannot stop myself! NOT a JP fan at all :(
Christine
Well said Megan!! You nailed it! Or should I say JP did, gah! He doesn’t say much at all! And that session with Clare in the ocean!? ¡Ay, caramba!
Traci
Wearing matching socks is overrated, I think. ;] My workout for today is working out with a trainer…doing circuits. I’m excited!
Carson
I am beginning to think that my husband and I will never get around to catching up on the Bachelor episodes we have DVR’d, considering we have only watched the first episode this season. I am a little more upset about it than I should be.
April
Socks, always matching but not always on the same, one may be inside out.
4miles for the morning run and lunchtime will be circuit weights.
I don’t eat dessert very often, rarely in fact. But if I did, I’m thinking of a warm gooey brownie.
Kaitlyn
We had a snow storm here yesterday and the roads were pretty bad so no free frozen yogurt for me :(. I was pretty upset I had been looking forward to it since you posted about it last week.
Leah @ Running with the Hayneses
Today I’m doing a 9-mile trail run (in the snow!), followed by T25.
I always wear matching socks–I’m definitely a little OCD in that area!
Last dessert: Samoas ice cream (my favorite!) on Sunday at my parent’s house.
Adriana @Laced Up With Lipstick
I love those bowls you all are using in the picture, so pretty…I like the print and colors.
I am not wearing socks at the moment. I don’t think I trust Juan Pablo at all, he seems really sneaky. Does maple almond butter count as dessert? Today I’m doing yoga and a new class at my gym called Cardio & Core.
Jackie
I haven’t watched any of the bachelor this season yet.
Lynn
Two questions! 1) What are those little balls on your froyo? 2) Where is your shirt from? Perfect plaid!
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries
My OCD self must always have on matching socks! Ha!
How LONG would you say you foam roll each day?? I’m trying to be smart about this whole half marathon training thing, especially since I’ve already been having issues with my hip and foot. Ugh.
Last dessert I had: a few spoonfuls of Peanut Butter & Co. Dark Chocolate Dreams. That stuff is crack.
Off to Pump Class in a few!
Mary@RunWalkLift
Last dessert was super sized cake mix oreos.
Lifting today and some kind of run including a mile speed test.
Sally @ sweat out the small stuff
Today I have a 5 mile hill workout on the schedule which is going to be done on the treadmill on my lunch break.
I had a brownie sundae last night but it was sub par. I enjoyed the icecream more than the brownie itself.
I always wear matching socks. My 13 year old niece on the other hand never does! And I love her and her style so I might have to try it one day.
Casey @ The Maine Mrs.
I hardly ever wear socks. I am usually in slippers, Uggs or flip flops (in the summer :), but when I do wear socks they HAVE to match. I’m a little OCD and I don’t think I could ever actually handle mismatched socks. :)
crista
I can’t believe I’m in Australia and can’t go to fro yo day! My socks match but have holes in them, does that count?
good luck with your track workouts!!
Miranda @ Lovely Wife Lovely Life
I’m so upset I missed National Froyo Day!! Bozeman doesn’t have any of the chain froyo places (only individually owned shops) which I like except for days like yesterday. Haha! ;)
Holly
I always wear matching socks! It drives me nuts when I do the laundry and can’t find the match to a sock. Usually it’s because my daughter wears mismatched socks so only one is dirty at a time…ugh!!
Love the Bachelor! I do like Juan Pablo. He’s not my favorite but he seems like a good guy!
I just made apple dumplings. They were so delicious! And now it’s back to the diet :(
I’m doing CrossFit tonight. It’s my favorite!
Allison
I missed froyo day! Arg!
Did 400’s this morning. They are not fun, but they are effective!
rachel rose
I think it’s funny about the socks– I avoid socks at all times, except when running and then I almost always wear knee-high socks with crazy patterns, so it would be totally obvious if they didn’t match! I hear you about the repeats!! I go to the track (outdoor) and line up some rocks along the side of the track for how many repeats I am going to do, that way I can’t wimp out after the first 400 makes me want to die! :)
Alyssa @ See This Girl Run
I am not Juan Pablo fan at all. So I’ve watched a couple episodes, but that was mainly for the company. Train wreck is a perfect way to describe the show! haha It’s fallen so far since the days of Trista and Ryan.
Ben @morerunlesseat
Workout today is my first ever spinning class. Cant wait. A bit nervous as there was only space in the advanced class!
I hate odd socks, especially when running…
Last dessert was a Jam on Toast Ice-Cream. Homemade! I intend on writing up the recipe at some point. I have tested on some friends who told me it was great (hopefully they wernt just being nice!)
Victoria
It is a very good day when I wear matching socks :p
I had doughnuts last night… It was 8pm. I was having cravings. It had to happen ;)
I am so glad that your calves are better! I didn’t discover foam rolling until about a year ago and I am so grateful I have!!!
Livi
I love Juan Pablo.. but he is making out with everyone! I need some more emotional connections from him ;)!
Laura
I don’t watch much reality tv…..I think the last time I saw the bachelor or bachelorette was when Trista and Ryan were on!
I had rocky road ice cream last night, yum!
Today I also have some tempo work on the schedule. I think it’s 3×2 miles or 2×3 miles….I need to check my calendar.
Oh I also just started foam rolling and ice baths. Never thought in a million years I would ever do an ice bath. But Sunday I did my longest run yet, 19 miles. I sat in the bath for only 10 minutes, then took a nice hot shower and foam rolled. I definitely think it helped, I have not been sore at all since my run!
Laura @ RunningJunkie
Good luck on your 500s! Today I have a relaxed 5 miler. I’m about to take a break at work and get it done. It’s best to run in DC before the lunch crowds (although when it’s this cold they aren’t out too much).
I am not wearing socks right now. I’m wearing stockings. But yes, mine always match:-)
Last dessert I had was……fried tortillas sprinkled w/cinnamon sugar w/vanilla ice cream. SO delcious. That was about 3 weeks ago though!
megan d
I can’t watch Claire talk anymore this season. She is always doing weird stuff with her tongue behind her teeth to try and look all cute and coy. I swear she practices talking and/or her facial expressions in the mirror.
And juan pablo is a an whore.
I didn’t do fro yo. Because even though I looooove fro yo. I hate crowds of people/waiting.
Can’t wait to hear about how you crushed your track workout. Have a great day!!
Aaryn @Insert{Life}Here
Agh, NEVER wear matching socks! Unless they’re my running socks. Then I do. Because I’ve only got 2 pair of compression ones that I’ll wear. Luckily they are the exact same, otherwise they’d be off color scheme as well.
I was doing laundry at the laundromat when I looked at the clock, and seeing it was 8:58, remembered I was missing The Bach. Darnit. But idk what I feel about Juan Pablo. He seems a bit skanky.
I had 1 (meaning 3…) Rice Krispie treat last night. I got the stomach flu over the weekend, and for some oddball reason, those are the only things that sound good. That and strawberry milkshakes?? I’m a mess.
I may run. I may not. We shall see how my tummy treats me throughout the day.
Flower
I always wear matching socks, it’s sort of an OCD thing.
I’ve never watch the bachelor, ever.
My last dessert was an apple with biscoff spread and it was delish.
I ran 4 easy miles this morning and I am going to do an hour of yoga and then weights tonite.
Elizabeth @ Positive Change
I am typically always wearing matching socks, however my running socks I do not!
I am sort of watching the bachelor and I am not really a fan of his!
Today I have a 4 mile easy run and some lifting!
Have a great day!
tara @ tara goes streaking
12 really isn’t that many… :) Ok yea it is.
12×400 was actually my very first speed workout ever.
Have fun!
Last night I ate a half pint of Ben & Jerry’s Scotchy Scotch Scotch. Every time a child of mine came down the stairs I hid the container under a blanket.
I don’t like to share. :D
Susan
Yes, matching socks. I’ve never watched any of the Bachelor shows. Last dessert was smores bars I made and brought to the Super Bowl party (I make them all the time now). Workout today = 5.2 mile run + swimming (done and done).
Have a wonderful Tuesday!
funfitgirl
Last night I had TCBY almond froyo with m&ms (ps. you can win 1 of 5 gift cards to TCBY on my blog right now!)….it was delicious.
Right now my socks match – they usually do.
Today was just an easy run on the treadmill…tomorrow I have a speed workout planned.
Leslie @ My Life Begins at 30?
Matching socks=yes. I usually wear matching socks…and I LOVE fun socks!
I finally started watching The Bachelor again. I’m like Juan Pablo more, although I don’t think making out with everyone is a good idea since he has a daughter who will totally watch one day. Nikki is from KC, so I try to cheer for her. She is not making it easy!!
Last night I mixed Trader Joe’s cookie butter with milk chocolate morsels. Then I dipped honey wheat pretzels in the dip mix. It was delicious!!
We are snowed in today, so I will have to do a home workout. Circuit/HIIT time!
Liz
Do no socks count as matching ones? If so, then yes, I am!
No Bachelor watching at my house. Maybe I’m missing out on something?
I had Breyer’s mint chocolate chip ice cream last night. Heaven from a carton. You know, I’ve seen Breyer’s ice cream sold in health food stores. So maybe it doesn’t count as dessert?
My little boy is sick so today’s workout will probably consist of the treadmill and some DVD yoga.
Kristy @ Kristy's Health Revolution
Juan Pablo is the WORST. I can’t stand his stupid face and his stupid voice. Ugh. I really, really, really don’t like him at all. It drives me crazy how he tries to do this, “I’m not going to kiss these girls because I don’t want to my daughter to see me kissing a bunch of girls…” but then he DOES IT ANYWAY, but uses it as an excuse when he doesn’t want to kiss somebody. Ugh, the worst. I thought he was handsome and charming on The Bachelorette, but now that his English is better I understand he’s a slimy creep. He’s RUINING The Bachelor for me! I hate it!
Lauren
Oh my gosh, Dirty Dozens (12×400) were always my most feared track workout in high school, bless your soul! Haha
And I would like to commend the plethora of desserts you have for your Bachelor viewing party: Donuts, brownies, and ice cream! Sounds like heaven to me!
april
the bachelor is definitely a train wreck… i keep getting sucked in each season and can’t stop watching it! i like juan pablo, but i think he needs to get rid of clair asap. she drives me crazy!
i always have matching socks, but that’s probably because i have like 30 pairs of socks in my drawer. :)
Lisa @ Running out of Wine
I NEED my socks to match:) If I lose one I just throw the other one out. This morning I ran 8 easy miles. Tomorrow will be my speedwork day!
Marissa @ Run Riss Run
I actually have no socks on right now. Socks with a broken arm don’t really work, so I’ve been wearing my Toms this week.
My last dessert that I had was this Oreo cookie bar thing that my friend made for me. It was amazing.
I am going to ask my mom to join me for a 2 mile walk today :0)
Lyric
Im still watching the bachelor even though I do not like Juan Pablo. He kisses every single girl instead of talking to them! Gah.
Lauren @Will Run for Boston
My small group tried to go to Yogurtland before bible study last night and we didn’t make it through the line before we had to leave! :( sad day! I had a 6 mile tempo run on the schedule for today but I pushed it to tomorrow because I am not recovered from my hard 17 miles on Saturday yet!
Hannah
I’m wearing my fuzzy warm matching purple socks right now.
Not a Bachelor fan…sorry!
I am trying to cut back on dessert too. I don’t think I had one at all yesterday, but the day before I had a brownie after lunch and a mini almond ice cream sandwich after dinner.
Rest day for me today. We’re stuck at home because of a snow storm, so I’ll probably put in a yoga DVD, followed by more stretching and foam rolling.
Angelica
Ha, I thought those were Brooke’s legs in the first pic! Have a great week!
Melissa
I’m not wearing socks right now, I have flats on at work in the office so I am sockless. but my socks do usually match.
I am watching, I do like him but I also find him highly annoying at times.
Last night I had a square of salted dark chocolate as my dessert.
Today will most likely be a rest day for me.
Becky@TheSavedRunner
Free frozen yogurt and toppings!!! How perfect! I need that in my life. :)
Annette@FitnessPerks
I definitely match my socks–I am a bit OCD like that. Hah!
Yummmmmm dessert for days!
Ashley @ Brocblog
Im wearing matching socks because I opened a new pack this morning, usually I mix and match and believe that socks are “matching” if they are the same height.
Tina@GottaRunNow
Homemade apple crumble and vanilla frozen custard. Yum!
Lisa @ runnermamablogger
Love me some train wreck! Tonight is all about running, training for my half in May with Team In Training. I have had too many desserts the last couple of days but last night I had a homemade chocolate lava cake with homemade whip cream and fresh raspberries, thanks to my hubby. My nephew is moving so it was part of his goodbye dinner. And yes my socks match.
Whitney
I woke up MAD at Juan Pablo this morning!! haha can’t believe he pulled that last night. I will continue to watch because I can’t get enough! :)
Molly Rose
My socks never match! And when they match each other, they don’t match my outfit! Doh!
Love Juanny P (its just what I call him). Did you see the very end of last week where he lip synced/danced to that song!? Ahh, so in love :)
Kay
Haha I love the salad selfie!!
My socks always match – I am a stickler for putting the pairs together when I do laundry haha
MartinaNYC
OMG we are wearing the same exact socks today! Actually, they are the best socks in the whole world, I always wear those for races and the pink ones are my fav!
I have speedwork in Central Park tonight-happy Tuesday girl!
Bryan Kraham @ BSX Athletics
Matching socks….check
Do I watch the bachelor, yes, because if I want any TV time on Monday night, I know my wife will be watching.
I got to meet Juan Pablo at an even here in Houston this summer. Very nice guy.
My workout will consist of me sitting on my bike trainer for an hour. I had a very bad crash this weekend and I am in too much pain to run and I have too many open wounds to swim. :(
Lis @ 26.2x2
I always wear matching socks, but they’re usually crazy – Valentines socks, Christmas socks, barnyard socks, Basset socks…yes, I have some very interesting foot warmer at home! No Bachelor for this lady – between work, running, and writing my blog (oh yeah and spending time with the fam and friends), I don’t get much time in for tv. I’m set for 4 miles today – woohoo!
Nicole
I have one of your desserts book-marked: It’s the one with the crushed oreos, topped with hot fudge, topped with ice cream, topped with cool whip, topped with sprinkles recipe. I CANNOT WAIT to make that!!
I made Nutella brownies this morning before going to work. Baking and running are the two best things to do first thing in the morning….it really gets the day off on the right foot! :)
Tara
I never comment but had to say my last dessert was your smore’s bars and they were absolutely delicious!
And yes my socks always match (obsessive compulsive like that) and no Bachelor for me..
Brittney @ Sweets 'N' Greens
I love that you ran just enough on the treadmill to make your miles even :) I try to do the same thing when I run!
My socks are always matching, I can’t stand when I have two different feeling socks on my feet at once.
Emily Robison
Menchies is doing their free yogurt day on Feb 6. We don’t have Yogurtland here so I will be waiting until Thursday to enjoy my free frozen yogurt!
Pam
I was thinking about you yesterday! I kind of had a hunch that you’d be the 1st one in line at yogurtland!! You make me proud!! ;)
You’re being such a smart runner & I know you’ll exceed your running goals this year my friend!!! <3 your smile. ;)
Katie
I just found your blog and it is very inspiring! I love the fact that you love running but love your desserts too! Every time I am eating a big piece of chocolate cake or a cookie I feel like I must be the only runner that does this. All the other blogs only show themselves eating like a rabbit. I run! Therefore, give me the cake!
Susie
Today’s workout: a nice six miler with 3 miles at a modified tempo (modified because I am running a 50k Saturday, yikes). Really, it probably doesn’t matter how modified today’s run was, 31 miles… that’s gonna hurt. Today’s kitchen workout: fix up a fun BUNCO dessert for the girls tonight.
Kaylie @ FitnessMovesYou
I went to Max Brenner in Vegas this past weekend and had their Smores Sundae. Best. Dessert. Ever. :) I hope you’re feeling better!!!!
Christina
Socks rarely match. Working on organization though and created a bin for socks only in laundry room so today they are matching.
I missed a few episodes but watched last night and now I’m curious what that one lady was crying over like what they did? Not sure what I think of him yet. He likes to kiss and does have emotions when he said goodbye. Hmm.
I think I’m gonna go on a night run tonight. Or treadmill 3 miles haven’t decided yet.
Katie
Ugh, after last night’s episode, I am NOT a Juan Pablo fan! He’s a slime ball. In other news, you look cute, and I wish I would have gotten free froyo yesterday, buuuuut that didn’t happen. Oh well. I’ll just have to pay for some soon! ;) Also, the salad selfie should totally become a thing.
xo
Kim
I rarely wear matching socks, and my 5-year-old daughter has gotten into the habit of mix-and-matching her socks, too! I just grab whatever, but she puts effort into making sure her’s do not match. I’m trying to get back into matching socks, but some days you got to pick your battles!
Full body workout today for me and running tomorrow. Good luck with your speed workout! And good advice about only focusing on what you have to do instead of how many more you have left. I have been following that mentality for a couple of weeks now and it’s doing wonders for my long runs!
Debbie @ Deb Runs
I just got in from a run because we’re expecting sleet and freezing rain overnight tonight and tomorrow will be an indoor spin day.
I always match my socks AND have to make sure I have a left and a right matched together. It takes a little longer, but my Feetures with arch support are sooooo comfy and so worth it!
Glad your readers made you feel better. We hate to see you sad…

I usually read other people’s comments, but I couldn’t this time because I’m two weeks behind on the Bachelor. (We’ll be having a marathon viewing this weekend).
But, had a great time in NOLA. Ran the Rock & Roll Marathon and was very proud of myself (no PR’s, but I hadn’t followed my training plan all that well this time and still ended up running a decent time). And, even better, my husband ran his first half marathon. I think he’s hooked!
I have matching socks 99% of the time. My kids, however, are totally the opposite.

I always wear matching socks! But I also count matching patterns in different colors as matching too haha
Jenn@Mark My Miles!
I’m so upset. I didn’t get free frozen yogurt yesterday. they made me pay. was it only celebrated at yogurt land?
Either way, so glad you guys got to celebrate!!!

Your shirt is so cute! Where did you get it!?

Juan Pablo is a Don Juan! He’s such a player….I can’t take him seriously, he just talks about how cute a girl is or how badly he wants to kiss them. And then the whole session with Clare in the ocean, ¡Ay, caramba!
Becky @ Ok, so here's the plan
I am wearing matching socks – I pretty much always do.
Last dessert I had was a Kinder Bueno candy bar – they’re my favorite! Candy bars count, right?
I had an easy few miles after work today. Though I think chasing toddlers around at work all day counts as a workout as well!

Always matching socks for me, my kids well that’s up to them!
Yes I am watching the Bachelor!! It makes me look forward to TV on Monday nights:)

I actually don’t know if I’ve ever had unmatched socks, I just match them up before putting them away ! I’m a huge bachelor fan, such a guilty pleasure and I think Juan Pablo is adorable! He’s such a great dad. The last dessert I had was…hmm does skinny pop count?! I’ve been doing great with healthy eating!
Nicole @ Fluffygirlrunningthoughts
I always wear matching socks–I guess I missed the memo on the non-matching sock fad!
I am watching the Bachelor but haven’t watched this week’s episode yet. Every season I tell myself I’m going to stop watching it, but then somehow I get sucked back in. I think Juan Pablo is hot and I love his accent, but his personality isn’t all that attractive to me.
Last dessert I had….uummmm…I honestly can’t remember! I’m not a huge dessert/candy/sweets person, but I do enjoy some froyo every now and then. I actually have a bag of Sour Patch Kids in my purse right now that I got in my stocking for Christmas, but I haven’t opened them yet. Someday I’ll get around to it!
My Tuesday workout was running 3 miles and then some ab work. It was super cold and windy so I almost didn’t go, but I forced myself out there and it felt great once I got going.

My mom bought my boyfriend and me bundlets from Nothing Bundt Cakes just cause she’s awesome like that. After a very filling dinner last night, we sat down and ate them. We were so disgustingly full, but my motto with desserts is that you suck it up, unbutton your pants, and make room for it ;)

I have never watched the Bachelor. I love that Brooke had a date.

I just got cable in my apartment last week and somehow I got completely sucked into The Bachelor during one of those “I’m so excited to have TV again so I will watch it all day” moments. I’ve never seen the show before and now I’m secretly loving the trainwreck for my Monday night entertainment. I can’t decide if I’m a Juan Pablo fan, but he does seem to be a great dad.
Kay
I almost always wear matching socks, only if I lost one do I do unmatched.
I don’t watch the bachelor :/
I wish I had a yogurtland to get free froyo!!
Cycling today!
