Wow St. George us sneaking right up there but I do believe you will be ready. I’m really excited to see you crush it Janaee. All of my salads from the salad bars are always so heavy and expensive. I completely feel your pain.

MMM that salad looks great! My next race is in 2 days..AHH! I used to love this cupcake near my apartment in college..it had chocolate cake with a nutella core and brownie batter frosting. SO GOOD, but probably why I gained quite a few pounds my senior year!

Half marathon training starts for me this week! I do my first Rock and Roll in October. In the meantime, I have a 4-mile race the beginning of September and an 8K at the end of that month. This will be my second half. Lessons learned from the first time around: do not ignore strength training and intervals! I did a lot of cardio-based cross training last time around (zumba and yoga), but I need to get serious about getting strong and fast. I’m hoping to beat my last time!

Your cupcake is my favorite! Yum.

favorite cupcakes from Crumbs would be the chocolate fudge chip and the boston crème but overall, any cupcake piled high with chocolate fudge frosting is my fave :) The Cheescake Factory is my favorite salad spot (and dessert spot!) and I always go with the BBQ ranch salad, in fact, it’s on my blog today!

I looooove Cheesecake Factory and their ridiculous portion sizes. I wish there was once close to me but it’s over an hour away :(

The best cupcake I ever had was a banana pudding cupcake topped with nilla wafers!

46.5 hrs until my next Ten Miler race. But my marathon is 58 days away.

bahahaaha I read the first little bit and I was wondering why in the world you were choosing to cap some letters and not the others. Let’s go eat cupcakes and your breakfast is one of the many reasons we are bffffffffs.

Five words for me today: Excited that classes have started! I am working on my PhD and actually missed school since my summer classes and vacation ended. I am crazy:)

That being said- would love to hear updates on if you are back in school or your plans for that! I remember you saying you may be going back for your masters?! I love hearing about people’s educational goals and how they manage the work/life/school balance:)

23 days until my marathon. Eeek, I hadn’t even noticed it is getting that close. I try not to look too far ahead, just stick with the plan for the week :)
That cupcake looks sooooooo good!

City Creek is so much fun! I was there in the winter a few years ago when I was working in Salt Lake for a client. It the coldest winter ever everyone kept saying. I remember wondering what City Creek would feel like in the summer walking around when it’s warm outside instead of the freezing cold.

Love your date night to SLC – and especially the video of Brooke!!

I’m headed to Atlanta this weekend (to knock off Georgia from my list!) and running the Hotlanta Half marathon! :)

YAY KATHY!!! I am so so glad that you slept so well last night! Insomnia must be incredibly frustrating!

My next marathon isn’t until November!

And my 5 words (woah, stressful) are: oatmeal, sunsets, 8-miler, fresh fruit

Janae! Did you see this article? Made me think of you since you just sent Brooke off to school. I think I can really relate to this little boy right now. It’s basically how i react whenever someone asks me if I’m able to run again yet.

Oh my goodness! That little boy… poor guy!

I hope you are able to run asap Annie. I am so sorry you are dealing with this injury, how incredibly frustrating.

Race is September 26. So mine is coming up pretty fast! ?

I like chocolate cupcakes with no frosting. I’m not a frosting girl. My favorite birthday cake is an ice cream cake. Mmm…

Work. Meeting. Run. Dinner. That’s my day in a nutshell (in no particular order). ?

This morning on my way into work I saw a HS boy walking to school with a backpack with donuts printed all over it. It made me immediately think of you! It was a pretty awesome backpack.

She really is the cutest! I love that video!

I was blissfully unaware that my next half is 1 month and 24 days away, until I realized it’s the week after your marathon. (I’ll be ready, just kept thinking it was further away).

Work, run, strength, sleep, eat.

I like a Hummingbird cupcake with cream cheese frosting. (enough so that I actually don’t share it. everyone needs to get their own).

Reply

Exactly 30 days until my RnR half in Montreal. I will always be a fan of German chocolate cupcakes (or regular cake).

As for 5 words of the day “You better not skip practice” I’m feeling pretty sore at the office right now. I’ll go but it’s going to be a struggle. It was good to see this post and your last post about how sometimes you have to do things you don’t want to do as a reminder.
