The two of us became friends real fast and I know that he wants to start accompanying me on all of my future trail runs.
Spent 10 hours yesterday making a little video for these fitness trackers (nothing blog related… an outside project I did).
I really wish we went back to using these beautiful old cameras instead of our phones.
Lunch break at one of Salt Lake City’s absolute best.
100% guarantee that if a restaurant makes guacamole at your table that it is going to be good.
I have never had more flavorful steak than this one in my entire life.
I was in a skirt for way too long yesterday… my usual max is three hours and then I need to be in running clothes, pjs or jeans asap.
Filming the office scene (I actually have never had an office job… I went from personal assistant to waitress to high school teacher to mom and whatever it is called that I do now:)
Can you imagine if this was your daily view from your office?
Exploring a new trail is good for my soul.
Trying to keep up!
Made it home just before bedtime and she made sure to tell me all of the stories from her day with her grandma, aunt and cousins.

Awe that looks and sounds like so much fun Janae! Do you think you’ll post a video of the end result of video? I had one office job and I really liked it.
Out west has such great views!
One sentence from yesterday: I’m currently writing a bad diner review. (Ha)
Ashley @ KickAshMom.com
I hope you post the video! This looks so interesting!
Leigha @ The Yooper Girl
I don’t know if I’d like an office job or not! I don’t think I could sit all day. My sentence… Got to eat lots of carbs today for my race tomorrow!
Anne
Trying to get on schedule in a city 7 hours ahead of what my body is used to is no joke! Zzzzzzzzzzz
Sarah @ KS Runner
Sitting all day is not so fun. Not to mention that my office at work is in the basement of a hospital. No view = not exciting.
I love those cameras! My husband is a photographer and is obsessed with old cameras!
Today my goal is to choose joy. :)
Rebecca@runningFoodBaby
I’ve never had an office job either!
Cait @ Beyond Bananas
That view would be incredible every day! Not sure if it would make more more productive or less productive….My sentence:
Getting my classroom set up while trying not to cry over the fact that my little ones are in daycare now..
Sally @ sweat out the small stuff
It’s gonna be a bright bright sunshiny day!!!!
Erica { EricaDHouse.com }
I used to collect antique cameras!
Flower
Black labs are awesome. (And so are mini doxie’s.) ;)
Kristina @ Blog About Running
Looking forward to seeing the video! I used to have a Jawbone UP and was obsessed with looking at all of my numbers each day.
Sitting at a desk all day is not ideal! I really like my job but I get up and walk around the office a lot because sitting for 8 hours is just crazy!
Kaella
Trust in the timing of your life :)
Lisa @ Running Out Of Wine
Sounds like such an exciting day! I hope you share what you were working on! I am with you on the skirt thing…a few hours in a skirt or a dress (or any sort of real clothes) and all I want it to be in something comfortable. It becomes an issue when I an expected to dress like an adult for 8 hours at work:)
Fun Fit Girl
I love living near the mountains so I have views like that everyday :) I’m spoiled.
today’s sentence: try not to eat the entire bag of candy corn.
Sarah @pickyrunner
I’m at my first office job now and I actually like it- minus the whole sitting still for 9 hours a day part. And wearing skirts. That’s pretty hard too.Can’t wait to hear what this big project/video was for!
Zoe
Sentence of the day: I am grateful! And I have some GREAT snacks :)
You look very strong, mentally and physically in Your photos :)
Monica
With a view like that, I’d never get any work done. I have had office jobs for the past ten years, and I’m soooo over sitting all day. Hopefully soon I will be able to find something more active!
Linda @ Fit Fed and Happy
Forget that they make guac–THEY PUT IT IN A STONE BOWL.
Now that’s a winner.
Natalie @ Never Serious Blog
I’d give ANYTHING for a view like that! My view right now is a wall. Woohoo.
Leslee @ Her Happy Balance
Wow if I had that view while working in the lab I worked at…perhaps I would have reconsidered staying there ;) My Sentence for the day – I’ll probably spend way too much time on the computer researching random things trying to avoid being excited/nervous to start grad school soon.
Megan @ Skinny Fitalicious
I enjoy what I do, but having an office job isn’t what’s in my heart.
Amanda
Sentence: I will now want chips and guac all day long and I’m not even mad about it because it looked so good.
Shawna
so glad to be back in grad school for my third and final year of classes – on the way to switching careers!

Paid it forward, lost power, neighbors invited us over for dinner!
Lauren @ Will Run for Boston
My sentence for yesterday was – Late night workouts are H.A.R.D.!
Jasmine @ A cupcake for my thoughts
My dog passed away 2 months ago and is identical to that dog, they literally look like twins!! That view is so amazing!! I’m trying to motivate myself to go for an evening run, I knew I should have just gone this morning less excuses when I first wake up :)
Marissa @ Run Riss Run
That view is amazing!
Sentence for the day: Try to keep up!

That looks like such a neat day! My one sentence for today is- I have to go to the doctor and it’s going to make me miss my workout. :(
Erika
Looks like you’ve got good stuff going on! Happy for you!
Sentence for the day- kids are back to school, I’m a stay at home mom all of a sudden, what do I do with myself. Ideas anyone? I like to stay busy
Renee
Does that picture/sentence mean you and Brooke got a dog?
The Hungry Runner Girl
I didn’t make that sentence very clear… My bad! No, he is my friend’s dog! I wish my apartment complex allowed dogs because I would get one in a heartbeat! Have a great day!
DontBlameTheKids
My sentence: My first baby is a kindergartener.
Yay for dogs!
Tara
Had a great run this morning and a song came on that made me think of you and I had to come right here and recommend it! Delta Rae – “Run” [all of their stuff is good though :) ]
Beth @ Running with the Sunrise
Um, can I move into that office? Amazing view! Looks like you had an awesome trail run on top of all of the other things you were busy with! And you’re absolutely right, table guac is the best guac. (Chipotle guac is a close second when they make it right.) My sentence for the day: it’s my Friday!!! Have a wonderful Wednesday!
Lora @ Crazy Running Girl
I would never get any work done if that was my office view!! Guacamole is the BEST in the world.

whatever you do call your job, it is probably the coolest.

Ok, say what?? I’m so far behind in blogging so I’m sorry I haven’t been keeping up but what? Where is your life now girl? Looking amazing. Photo shoots, videos, pro blogger, and now a dog?? We want a dog. I should just email you. And to think we both started blogging at the same time. You amaze me… energetic, magnetic, keep on keepin’ on, life just gets better, YOU. Okay, now I must make some time to catch up here.

Janae, that office is right by my house! You were so close to me yesterday :)
Sentence for the day: I work on my computer all day and forgot it, so I had to go home to get it and I’m already completely pooped for the day thanks to this illness….is it bedtime yet?
Nicole
Sentence for my day: Conquering fears is better than living in regret.
Bee
Sentence for my day….Not sure yet, still happening :)
Just a little encouragement….the part where you mentioned about you went from waitress to etc etc then to what ever it is you do now: You are a Mom with a beautiful child. Divorcing the idiot that doesnt have a half ounce of sense doesnt mean you stop being a Mom. A Mom is a career, an important one. You are doing an excellent job :)
The Hungry Runner Girl
Thanks Bee:) I really appreciate you!
Nicole@TheGirlWhoRanEverywhere
you are the coolest and i want to be you!
Kathy McElhaney
From yesterday: The sole of my shoe came off while I was out running!

Liz @ Carpe Diem and Run
I would love a link to the video when (if) it goes online :)
Sam @ The Running Graduate
I loved the one office job I had, I miss it so much!
I can’t wait to see the end result of your video – what a wonderful opportunity!
Runwright
I just got a bag of goodies from my parents.
Lea J.
Beautiful views! We were in SLC for a family reunion in early June and stayed at the Marriot up in the campus area. I was ok with waking up to that every morning, but it’s no Colorado Springs…. ;)
Christina M Williams
My boss has a jawbone and he loves it.
Colleen
Be careful running with dogs–most of them just aren’t built for it (except maybe Huskies). If your dog slows down, you have to slow down too–if your dog starts limping, you have to stop! He would probably love to be borrowed for walks with you & Brooke though! :)
