I’m back………
That silly cold last week tried to make me think that I was completely out of shape and that running a quarter mile at a time was the most I could do. Now that I am back to 100% Janae City I had a great 8 mile run this morning while FINALLY watching The Bachelor. Don’t hate me but I kind of thought Courtney was cute in the end and I was sort of happy for them. Blame it on my hormones…my excuse for everything lately.
You’d think that if I could get up early to workout that I wouldn’t be too lazy to scrape the snow off of my own car…..what did I do before Billy? I can’t remember and I don’t want to remember.
Now I need your help on some tough life decisions. Billy has a ginormous project to do after school and even though I am usually really good at talking him into hanging out with me instead of being responsible I have decided that I really should let him work. So, that means I have 6 hours of free time. What to do?
1.
2. Bake and eat these:
3. Hang out with these rascals.
4. Fold laundry, get ahead on some work stuff, pay bills and make it so that we have at least 2 clean plates to eat off at some point.
I think you know that 1, 2 and 3 will all happen and as soon as I hit publish I will forget #4 even existed.
——————————————————————-
I wanted to tell you about a fun race going on in Utah Country on April 28th that I think we should all do together, it is called Color Me Rad and it looks like the coolest thing ever. Does it get any better than lots of color, running and doing it with a team with all of your best friends?
Check out and like their Facebook page HERE!
——————————————————-
The cutest Eliza is in the top 3 to win her dream wedding and needs our help because this is the last week of voting! You can watch the video HERE and vote for her! Even just viewing her video helps her to win:)
——————————————————-
What time do you leave in the mornings? What would be your dream time to be able to leave in the morning?
-7:32 a.m. Dream time = 10 a.m.
Ever done a fun race like Color Me Rad or any of the Warrior Dash type races?
Any treats that you have been dying to bake? Link away pretty please:)
Who else got their run on today?!?!?

That caks looks SOOOO good…droool
No running for me, but training tonight after a week off! yay!
I currently leave for work 830ish. ideally, Id like to leave at 10ish too
kristen @ verbs and vignettes
i baked chocolate chip banana muffins yesterday!!! they are delicious. (and mildly, mildly heathy, with greek yogurt and 1/2 the butter.) but i don’t just yet have a link for them.
i don’t race. except to baked goods.
it would be nice to leave at 8:00 for work currently; i usually run down the steps at 8:04 and make it right on time. ideally, i would leave at 11:00. 10:00 would be nice, as well. i won’t be a begger and a chooser… i’ll just go for “later.” :p
Janae
I don’t race. except to baked goods…..you just made me laugh SO hard!
kristen @ verbs and vignettes
i posted them… http://verbsandvignettes.wordpress.com/2012/03/19/chocolate-chip-banana-muffins/ :-)
Jeanie
I normally leave at 7:15, but today my alarm didn’t go off! Ahhh! Dream time would be after 9, but I’m a teacher too, so that’s not going to happen.
I’ve heard of other color races – sounds so fun. I’m watching for them to do one near me.
I’m doing a warrior dash this summer. Bring it on!
I don’t feel like baking, but I would like to eat baked goods…
Rest day today – hanging out with my family.
Amanda @justagirllookingfor
Glad you are feeling better <3
Yum bake! That looks super tasty, and you are eating for two….
I am doing the color run in SF this summer, I think it is the same concept. I would LOVE to do a Tough Mudder, maybe one day
Patty T
I try to leave for work by 6am, but it doesn’t always happen. I’m with you, dream time 10am (but still get off work early).
I did a Muddy Buddy race with my college roommate. It was a blast and I tackled her in the mud at the end. It ended up being one of the most fun races I have ever done. That Color Me Rad race looks AWESOME!
Losing Lindy
I ran..sort of..I just had to deal with wheezy and not being able to breathe through my nose yet. It was MISERY.
Raquel @ Toned, Tan, Fit & Techie
What time do you leave in the mornings? What would be your dream time to be able to leave in the morning?
I used to leave the house at 9:55 when I had to walk to the office to be there by 10am. (lived really close obviously, and I worked with engineers who didnt roll into work until about 1030 so I was early
Ever done a fun race like Color Me Rad or any of the Warrior Dash type races?
I am doing The Color Run in SF this year! So excited to do it.
Who else got their run on today?!?!?
I still need to run! have last nights episode of “shameless” to watch on the treadmill!
Jan
I WISH I had my run on today. It’s windy and hot and I’m sitting here on the couch instead. Those Cinnabon things look sinful. I’m definitely trying them. And finally, my ideal “leave time” would be 8 a.m. I leave at 7:20-ish right now, and that’s just a bit too early. I much prefer to get home early!
Corrie Anne
Well. We leave at about 7:55. We’d have to leave at about 7:49 to be on time. Dream time would be more like… 11. I need time for a run first, right?! :) I saw one of those color runs is coming to Denver!!
Emily
My dream time to be able to leave in the mornings would be not at all, e.g. I wish I could work from home every day! I feel like you can get so much more accomplished when you work from home (e.g., throw in a load of laundry over lunchtime, etc.)
I just finished my first half marathon of 2012 yesterday morning, so I will NOT be getting my run on today. It’s actually kind of nice to not even think about running today – normally even on rest days I still consider going for a short run anyways. But for today, no running for sure and no debate!
Briana
I pretty much want to eat every baked good within a 1 mile radius but have no patience to bake them myself. And being almost 41 weeks pregnant (YIKES!) might have something to do with that.
No baby over the weekend. Boo. But I guess she’s waiting for the FIRST day of spring. :-)
And the only running I did was to the bathroom to empty my pea-sized bladder. You just wait. You’ll be amazed at how little pee-pee you can hold near the end. ;-)
Erika
Oh heck ya! That race looks ahhhmazingly fun! I was thinking about doing that out in Southern California, but I waited too long and now it is sold out! Boo. I have done The Great Urban Race and had a blast with that!!
I kind of luck out with the leaving the house thing. I stay at home with my daughter. Pro – No leaving the house till whenever we feel like it. Con – My daughter wakes up around 6:30 am. Oh well.
Monday, rest day! Tomorrow, run day! Have a great day!
Lindsey
We leave at 8:10am, my dream time would also be 10am :)
Sounds like a super fun race! I have never done one before but would love to if one was close by!
I was in the baking mood yesterday and tried to make juice pulp mini muffins and they were a flop :( So I made banana ones instead which thankfully worked, might have cried if not… I also wanted to make raw brownies, Oreo cookies and peanut butter banana loaf but quickly remembered how much cleaning that would involve and we do not need all that baking right now. I try and limit my baking to one item a week. haha
Tabaitha
Since I’m stay at home mom, I don’t leave for work. Instead, my day starts when my oldest gets up at 6:15am. My dream time to crawl out of bed is 10am. That hasn’t happened since college. I want to do the Color Run next year, which is like Color me Rad. I’m in the mood for the Rocky Road Crockpot recipe I sent you. Warm and delicious sounds good. My run is schedule for as soon as the kids go to bed at 7pm. Although it will be inside on the treadmill due to Tornado warnings and crazy storms heading our way.
Kimberly
ohmygoodness that cake!!!!!!!
um, when hubs and I watched the bachelor finale, I cried with her bc I felt so bad. but I couldn’t stand her the whole season so I actually took a preg test bc why the heck else would I cry??? just a softy, no bebe :)
Maria Revutsky
yaya we both had great runs today!!!
Do 1-3 AND a little bit of 4. It always makes me feel GOOD to be productive :)
Glad you’re feeling better! You’re making pregnancy seem like cAKE :)
Jessie
I have been wanting to do the “color me rad” race. I get back from Germany that week, and if I’m not feeling too jet lagged I think I am going to do it.
That cakes looks so incredible! I really want to make these homemade graham crackers for smores. http://www.bakerella.com/homemade-graham-crackers/
and this cookie pie which is probably guaranteed to put you in a sugar comma
http://www.bakerella.com/homemade-graham-crackers/
Janae
AHHH Thank you so much for the links, I will be making both of them! You are the best!
Kristen @ notsodomesticated
I’m surprised you can leave that late … most high schools start earlier than that! Pretty cool!
Right now, I leave the hotel whenever I want. ;) But I’m usually awake by 6am b/c that’s when my husband gets up for work.
Amber
I have to bake/make some thing for my sons Kindy bake sale this friday, I’m tossing up between your Peanut butter cookies (with milky way bars) that i’ve never made before or lolly cake which is my reliable favourite. It’s an important decision because i will be eating them while making them=) It would be amazing to enter that 5km run, too awesome i need to move to the U.S.A just to enter all the amazing run races.
Janae
Um…I think you need to make both:) What is a lolly cake! This is a very important decision ha. Hope you are having a great day!
Amber
You need a serious sweet tooth.

Christy
I got my run on today- a slow 3 miles, legs are still a little sore. LOL….My dream time to leave would be 9, instead of 6:45…..actually my dream time to leave would be quarter past never! JK ….I did a 5k runamuck last year and we’ll be doing it again at the end of April. It was great, our costumes were less than par though, so I gotta step it up this year. My husband lost his shoe in the mud but found it, but then in the process lost his sock and ran the rest of the way without sock. I stepped in so deep I needed my friend to help hoist me out. I think I was more tired after that than the 1/2.
Amanda @ Let Me Be Whats Underneath
Glad you’re back! I leave between 6-6:20 in the morning. I have to be at work by 7, but try to get there sooner. Wish I only had to leave at like 9. Haha :)
Kim
I ran a Warrior Dash last summer in Massachusetts. It was fun, but the poison ivy I suffered from after the race was NOT!
Janae
POISON IVY…..no way!! That is crazy!
Katie @ msfitrunner
I am glad you had a good run, because mine was not that fantastic:( 7 miles instead of 9, and just not too fun – but I know we need those ones! Today is normally my rest day anyway – it just got all screwed up with an off weekend…anyways, I’ve never done a fun crazy race like that. That one sounds fun, but the warrior dash and tough mudder ones don’t really appeal to me – not yet anyway!
I don’t have to be out of the house at any time in the am, it would probably be better for me if I did. When I was doing the preschool run, I had to be out by 8:45 to get my oldest there, and believe it or not, it was sometimes tough to get 3 kids under age 4 dressed, fed and out the door by that time. You’ll soon find out that it takes easily 5x as long to get your act together with a child in tow;)
I hope you made the smart choice of doing #1, 2, or 3 tonight, instead of 4;)
Have a great night!!
Kay
I just finished my workout and settling in with The Voice and some birthday cake Oreos later!!
Angela @ Happy Fit Mama
I leave for work around 7 a.m. Twice a week I have to really hustle to make it to work by 7:30 when I drop the kiddos off at daycare.
I wanted to have my hubby make this for my birthday cake over the weekend but actually went with a chocolate cake w/ PB frosting. Yum!
http://blogs.babble.com/family-kitchen/2011/04/08/rainbow-cake-in-a-jar/
Janae
Oh my goodness….I need that right this second. Thanks for the link!
Megan D
I usually leave around 5:30am for the gym. I wish it were 10am. My sister wanted to do that race with me, but I am throwing my SIL a baby shower that day. I am still trying to make it work cause it looks like fun.
I have that exact cinnamon roll/cake recipe pinned. It looks so good. Save me a piece :) Other recipes I have pinned and made in the last 7 days (ya. I have been naughty). Both were SO good.

jeannie @ reclaimingjeannie.wordpress.com
I, technically, don’t have to be out of the house any specific time, but need to get kiddies to school by 8:15, so I try to have everything taken care of at home by then so I can get my day started as soon as I drop them off. I miss Utah, but I do not miss that snow. 76 here today – almost too warm to run:-) I ran tonight with the hubs after dark. Nice “date” time for us. Haven’t done any of these adventure races, but they sound fun. I just love running on its own…don’t feel the need to add anything to it…which is why I’ve never considered a triathlon, either. Have a great night.
Louisa
Cainllg all cars, calling all cars, we’re ready to make a deal.
Lindsay @ Salt, Sun & Sanity
Ooooooh, that Color Me Rad 5k looks amazing! I’m 100% signing up for the Boston run in July :) Thanks for the heads up!
karla
I can’t tell you how much I love you blog! you are such an inspiration everytime I read! not because you are an awesome runner (but you totally are) but bc you seem so genuine and live life fully! love that! I wake up at 525 and leave at 635…insane! then make a 60min commute…even worse! I am going to make a cinnamon roll cake too soon. I have been dying to try it and I am going to make shamrock shakes too…ice cream whole milk and peppermint…mmm! I’m pretty sure oreos will have to garnish it too. I did get my run on… 4.2 miles!
Janae
Karla! Your comment absolutely made my day! Thank you so much:) You leave at 6:35….you are my hero! Let me know how your cinnamon roll cake is and good call on the shamrock shake, I will be copying you:) Oreos are a must. GREAT RUN!
Colleen
Glad you are back to normal!!! I ran hill sprints after my am classes! I leave my house at 7:41am and my dream time would also be 10:00! Color me rad sounds awesome. I’m about to run my 4th Warrior Dash and 2nd Tough Mudder. I’m addicted!!!!! Oh I LOVE to bake. Did you know that I have a guilt-free bakery business?? Yep… It’s what I do at night… Instead of sleeping. ;)
Janae
WHAT……I did not know that about you! I didn’t know it was possible to do anymore than you do! Tell me about some of the things you make!
Colleen
You name it and I’ll recreate it completely healthy and diet specific. Gluten, fat, sugar free, etc. etc. I do some catering!! :o)
Heather @ run eat play
That color race looks neat – they have one here in Chicago too! My fav race is the Muddy Buddy. You and a partner take turns running and biking riding with obstacles in between and then a giant mud pit at the end! It’s messy but lots of funny. I’m doing it July with my hubby for the third time! (hopefully my calves will be all ready to go by then!)
Yellow Haired Girl
I’m so lucky to live where I do in relation to my office. Work starts at 8:30 … I leave my apartment at 8:28. Awesome, right? I just want it to be summer and then I’ll walk. Oh yes, you read that right. I’ve been driving. You’re totally allowed to judge me.
[email protected]
I am doing Color me rad in Hartford on May 26th! I am so pumped up about it!
Janae
AHHH Let me know how you like it! That is awesome!
Claudia
I want to try a color run so bad! I got my run on today too :) Only 3.5 TOUGH miles for some reason but I’m training for my first race, a 10k, so I’m glad I ran through it today! And omg, I never comment, but you have to try to make these: http://www.howsweeteats.com/2012/01/homemade-snickers-bars/ HOMEMADE SNICKERS BARS ahh or this: http://www.howsweeteats.com/2012/02/gooey-red-velvet-smores-bars-2/ red velvet s’mores! I’m kind of obsessed with her blog if you can’t tell. Happy monday!
Janae
CLAUDIA!!! Great run, I want to hear all about your 10k! THANK YOU for the recipes, I am obsessed with snickers lately, I have to try those! THANKS!! Have a great day!
Arrienne
mmmmm I really want some of that cake! Just finished 7.5 miles of speed work and I am so glad it is finished! I did have some random old man sit in his car and watch as I sprinted back and forth and he would honk and give me a thumbs up haha…weirdo.
My dream time would definitely be after 9:00 a.m. that way I could wake up at 6:00 instead of 5:00 a.m. and I skipped out the on the finale… but I am so excited for bachelorette Emily-love her!
Katie @ Running off the 'Ritas
I did the Color Run in Dallas! So much fun :) I don’t have to work until 9:30 and I have no commute, it is quite possibly the best thing about my job because it gives me time to run or do a workout class in the morning and have enough time to shower and get ready… I should probably take advantage of that more! There are so many delicious recipes I am dying to try, (Pinterest is the devil!) I’ve had my eye on this one for awhile http://cookinupnorth.blogspot.com/2011/07/cinnamon-roll-cake.html
Becca
Ok, it makes me really happy that I’m not the only one who knoWs the last minute she can leave for work! 7:36am for me! If I see 7:36 on my clock when I turn on my car I know I’m golden! I dream of 9:30 though. Dream!!
Janae
BAHAHAH Yep, if I get in the car at the ‘magic’ time I am so happy! Seriously, 9:30 would be so nice!
Holly @ Healthy Living Holly
i ran 3.2 miles today in my hometown. i was feeling good, and then it started SNOWING about 2 minutes in! i ran past an elderly couple & the man said, “you poor girl! you’re going to freeze!” luckily i was warming up at that point, but next time i’ll be sure to pack a running jacket and full length pants. i didn’t shave my legs either so it was a good thing i was running fast. didn’t want to blind anyone!
Katherine @ Neon Blonde Runner
Yes, dream time for me would also be 10am! I could sleep in until 9am….but of course the day would also have to end early, at like 4pm haha. And I’d have to get paid the same haha.
ashley
funny fact: I went to put your blog name in my browser and i typed ‘hungry runner game’……hhmmmm someone is excited!
My dream time isnt really existent with my job. I travel a lot for work and so times are always skewed as to when I meet my wholesalers. It is usually never before 7:32 am though ;)
I didnt get a run in today but I did get to fly florida for work and this allowed some brother/sister hangout time ! mommy time tomorrow…with a little bit of work
Janae
BAHAHAH I can’t wait to watch hunger games too! AHHH Have so much fun with your Mom today!
Shay @ Whine Less, Breathe More
My workday varies everyday. But I usually drop my girls off at school on my way to the office. We leave the house at 8:00 AM.
That race looks so fun! Don’t think we have one like that anywhere near me.
I have no desire to bake since last week was a very baked goods filled week. I made tiramisu cupcakes for a co-worker’s birthday, had key lime pie for my daughter’s birthday and made brownies for a school carnival. Then my daughters won a cake, 6 cupcakes and 12 mini-cupcakes in the cakewalk at the same school carnival. Feel free to stop by for any of the above treats!

Kara
Oooooh! That cake!!
Amy
i really wanna do a fun run like that!! the warrior dash or muddy buddy (whatever they’re called) races sound so fun!! i almost signed up for one in may but then remembered ill be nice and round (pregnant haha) so the warrior dash might have to wait. sounds fun though!
Megan
I did a run similar to that one called The Color Run in January with my 12 yr. old son. It was his first race ever. I had a lot of fun doing training runs with him. He had never run more than a mile. The race was a ton of fun! Running three gave him a real appreciation for what 13 . 1 actually means and he was amazed by my 3 half marathons. I just started running last April. It was a nice moment of enjoying my tween being impressed by me. Lol! We will definitely do it again next year. My younger two want to do it also. We ran by one guy running with his pig. The pig had a white shirt too. It was a super fun race!
Janae
That is so fun you ran it with your son! That is awesome and I am so glad you had fun together! YOU ARE IMPRESSIVE! That is so fun that your younger two want to do it too. A PIG….hilarious!
Kat Birkenbeuel
I’m running a similar race— The Color Run in Chicago on June 2nd!! Can’t wait :D
Khushboo
Apparently you would love my work timings- I have the luxury of only having to be in at 10.30….no wonder I love mornings :)!
Shauna @ Balancing Bites
I love those great runs, especially after some not so great runs. I ran 1 mile on the treadmill today after an HIIT workout. I wanted to see how fast I could run the mile. I ran it in 9:16, which is really good for me. I’ve always been a ~10 min/mile person. At the end, I felt I could have given it more. I will definitely try harder next time. I’ve been considering signing up for the Devil Dash and Warrior Dash this year. It looks like so much fun. The only thing is I’m afraid of heights. These two runs might have to be an impulse sign up. I have a hug list of delicious baked good recipes on Pinterest. This Vanilla Cake with Strawberry Cream Frosting is on the top of my to bake list. http://www.perrysplate.com/2009/05/vanilla-cake-with-strawberry-cream-frosting.html
Coach Dion
Was up at 05h00 for an easy morning 8.5km run, it was dark, but the cold and wet of winter is still months away.
Lori
I leave the house at 7 am, drop my daughter at the bus stop and head to work. If I could leave around 10:30 or so, that would be ideal. Of course, that would mean I wouldn’t get home until about 10 pm…
My BFF registered us for the Warrior Dash this July for her birthday. Apparently, her wish this year is to watch me die face down in a puddle of mud. Who knew?
Barborka @BarborkaOnTheRun
I planned on a 12.5 miles (20 km) that always ends up finishing the “full” half marathon distance. But wasn’t feeling great about it, ran 6 days in row so I decided to have the Monday off. And I am so glad I am starting to know my body, today morning the 13.1 miles felt awesome!
I am going to bake this: http://ontherun.barborkas.cz/2011/08/wordless-wednesday-wonder-cake-dort.html for my dad’s birthday in May (there is not the exact recipe included in the link, it’s a family treasure … :) ).
kari @ Running Ricig
I’m baking cupcakes tonight with my friend, so I definitely think you should make the cinnamon buns.
I’m out the door between 7:30 and 8 every morning.
Jenn@ Run It My Way
I leave the house at 9:25 am (work starts at 9:00…. oops). Lucky for me my bosses don’t get to work before I slink through the door so it all works out ok!
I’ve never done one of those races, though they look like so much fun!!
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats
I wanted to do this run with some alumnae from my sorority, but the one in Chicago is already full! I leave at 7:30 3 days a week and 9:30 one day (no class Friday). And no running for me today. I think I pulled a muscle behind my knee and made it way worse during my 12 mile run Sunday… I’m officially tapering early for my first half marathon on April 1st, so today is strength training and tomorrow I’ll probably do 6 miles with some sprints in there!
Janine @ThePurpleGiraffe
Send some of that Cinnabon Cake my way! ;-)
Kaelin
I am thinking def #1, #2, and #3 to share the bounty of #2. ;)
I leave at different times depending on what my work day looks like. Sometimes 730, sometimes 8, sometimes 840. I would like to be able to wake up about 830 everyday.
I have heard of the Color races, and it sounds exciting but I am a little nervous about the muddy races. Wouldn’t it ruin my shoes???
theAlmostRunner
Are you kidding? Eliza (the girl vying for the wedding win) is my friend’s sister! I’ve been voting all week! haha. Small world!
Stephanie
I leave around 7:20am. I’d rather leave around 8am. This would give me time to run with my favorite 5am running friends and get a few extra solo miles without being rushed to leave by 7:20.
I am dying to bake anything. My kitchen is being remodeled and I have not cooked or baked in a week and a half! it will be at least another week and a half before I can!!
I managed to get in 7.25 miles this morning.
Ann@anntics
I currently am not in love with my job and my husband is coming home this weekend after being gone for 4 really long weeks, so my dream time would be never! But in realistic dream land, I would say 9:30 am. I really want to do a color run but they don’t have them around here. I am moving to Arizona though this summer so I am hoping maybe I will get to run one. And I already ran today, did five miles with my running partner. And now I just want to go back to bed. I was wondering if you have ever run the Moab half marathon?
Ashley @ This Is The Place
1. 2. and 3! 4 is a no…that sounds boring. ;)
I just got back from a 7.25mi run, with 8 x 400m. OMG, I have totally forgotten how to run fast. That workout nearly killed me. Wow, I have a lot of work to do before my 5k…
RunningISMyDiet
I leave the house about 5:35 am to get to work by 5:45. I absolutely have to be there by 6. I LOVE getting off work at 2 pm, so I wouldn’t want to change it. Unless I could just avoid working altogether and be independtly wealthy. :)
I ran one mile yesterday to try out my leg– it is NOT healed. So…I walked. I miss it s much.
I feel ya on the Bachelor….I felt kinda bad for her too. I wonder if they’re still together.
natalie@ southern fit foodie
On the mornings I train my client, she arrives at 6 a.m. To leave for my teaching job on time, I need to be out the door by 7:10.
That cake looks amazing – seeing as I’m on this 8 week eating plan I almost licked the computer screen!
IDK My BFF Jes
I leave around 7:20a. My ideal time to leave would be never.
I am dying for some S’mores. Good thing I have a Wednesday post BodyPump S’mores date!
Meghan Rene
I got m yoga on today – and kickboxing on tonight! That race looks awesome – I am doing the Spartan Race in June – yikes!!!
shelly
I would go to ripped, then go to parents house to eat dessert! Forget cleaning and laundry. Who needs clean clothes.
Christina @ The Athletarian
I searched for a colour run here but they are in the US only :( I am so sad
PS you need to come here. The weather is so nice and sunny. We are breaking records in Toronto. It is basically June weather this week and people are out in shorts and flip flops!! No snow on cars ;)
Nikki
1, 2 & 3 for sure!
Today I don’t have to leave my house until 10am. I get your dream time Janae!! The bad part is for some reason I still woke up at 5:45. Ugh.
Jerilee @ Mom's Gone Running
I leave at 5:10am to run, but other than that I don’t have to leave until 8:40 to get my kids to school.
7 miles ran today.
I did the Kiss Me Dirty race last year. It was really fun as long as you don’t mind getting dirty!
I really want to do the Color Me Rad race with my daughter- she’s only 8 but she loves to run and she would love it!
Brandi @ Faith Fitness and Laughter
I love to make the Honey Bun cake!! It is sooooo good! Every time we have a pot luck at church I get tons of requests… It’s a definitely a keeper!
Lisa
I felt so bad for Courtney! I know what she said was wrong, but don’t you think 20 girls ganging up on her for the Women Tell All is bullying in a way, they were harsh! I felt like she was being genuine at the end. Who knows, maybe I’m hormonal too ;) I love your blog, it is too cute btw! You should definitely bake with your family :)
Sabrina @ Radioactive Runner
I’ve heard of that race before and it looks SO FUN!! It would definitely be fun to do with a group of friends. I don’t think there are any here in Canada though.
Life's a Bowl
I have to leave no later than 7AM to get to school on time… Even 5 min later I hit traffic and get stuck behind buses… Ideally, I’d love to have a 9-5PM job so I could sneak in a morning workout and just go home after work…
The Color Me Rad race sounds SO COOL! A few of my girlfriends and I are considering doing a Warrior Dash race this summer- hopefully it all works out :D

I typically leave around 6:20am … now that i’m on spring break I haven’t had to go anywhere until 7:30/8ish and its so nice :)

I have to leave by 6:30 am, which is totally lame. Dream time is never having to leave unless I want to! I ran the Warrior Dash last year and while I don’t think I would do it again, it was a really fun experience. I was in one of the last waves on the last day and we had torrential downpours overnight… you want to talk about mud…

Hey Janae!!! I’m doing a similar Color Me Rad race in Washington DC!! It’s called the color run. It’s in September. It’s only a 5K but it’s pretty much the same thing. I am SO excited!!! PS: That cinnamon roll cake looks insanely delicious! :)
Cinnamon @eatpraytri
I leave for work around 7:30 as well (sometimes 8..ooopsie!!) and my dream time would also be about 10 or 1030.
You should def make the cake b/c anything with Cinnamon is AWESOME.
We just saw a color run here in Seattle as well and we are going to register for it…looks soo fun!!

I watched the video and voted, and they are so stinkin’ cute! I hope they get their dream wedding =) Also the Color Me Rad race looks like such a blast! I love hearing about all these fun new races. I did Ragnar last spring and had so much fun. Have you heard of this one?: http://runforyourlives.com/ Check it out!

I work pretty far away (because I LOVE my job) so I leave around 6:30 am (ew). However I would love to leave closer to 8 or 9 (depending on if its daylight savings time or not) to get a run in before I go to work! I am afraid of the dark so it just can’t happen now.
Also – I tried this recipie last weekend for my grandma’s birthday cake and it was 1: easy 2: DELICIOUS!! Enjoy :) http://pinterest.com/pin/90353536244150599/

Hey Amazing woman! I nominated you as one of my favorite bloggers! (Check it out http://thesolesearch.wordpress.com/) I think doing 1-3 is a great idea! The other stuff will just magically happen when Billy gets home, right? Anyway, you are great and I love reading about your life!

How were those cinnamon rolls?! Amazing? I did Hell Run last year which is the same as Warrior Dash, it was a BLAST! At least until the end when it is freezing cold and you’re seriously shaking from the cold. You should do that color race!

I thought the same thing about Courtney!!!!! I think she has problems with relationships with girls, but that doesn’t mean that you will have a terrible marriage. I was happy for them too. Crazyness.
This post made me really miss my sister! You are lucky to get to see your so often.

I leave at 5-freaking-15 in the a.m. Insane. Dream time: 11:00am.
Treats: Dying to try them all – but I’m on mission-beach-bod mode right now. Pinterest has me drooling ALL the time!
I ran today! I did Bootcamp and then ran 4 miles. Legs = sore.
Missy
I leave at 7:20 am every morning, my dream time would be to work from 11am to 7pm and leave around 10:30. That way I can have my morning to myself to get a run in and watch GMA while eating breakfast and drinking my coffee and then I have my evenings to watch my shows and blog!

recognise such special about my problem. You’re wonderful!
Thanks!

Hi there! I realize this is sort of off-topic however I had to ask.
Does running a well-established blog such as yours require a lot of
work? I am brand new to operating a blog however I do write in my journal everyday.
I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my experience and thoughts online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
Thankyou!
