Doing things differently.

Pushups on toes and you should definitely get a dog! :)

Wow that sounds like an awesome time. I’m actually just wasting time before my long run today. I think you should get a little dog. Brooke would seriously love it and they would look cute together.

I had a nice 85 degree race yesterday. I don’t think I’ve ever wanted a 10k to be over as much as that one. Since my summer ended up being roughly 6 months this year I’ll say between summer and arctic tundra NY…summer wins.

I did long run after a large breakfast as well. It actually did not go too bad I just commuted from the beginning to it not being a speedy run.

FT looks amazing. I need to go figure out breakfast.

PRed in my half yesterday! Long drive home = laying around all day.
I can’t do push-ups at all, so neither knees or feet for me!

That scenery is gorgeous. Wow. I live pretty close to Mt. Shasta, but that mountain is breathtaking!

Summer is my favorite season as a perpetual student. No school, yay! And I force myself to do as many pushups on my toes as I can, since I gotta work on improving my upper body strength.

aww, def. get a little dog! they’re work, but so worth it!

My favourite season is fall, I love everything about it. That cobb salad…I want it for lunch.

Dogs are a lot of work at first, but they’re absolutely worth it!

Sunday plans: get in a workout, go to church, do some baking this afternoon (pumpkin bread!), and then watch football and the Breaking Bad finally with my husband and some friends tonight :)

Just doing a push up is cool enough in my opinion I don’t care what body part you’re up on, kneeling on, etc.

Sunday= a huge bowl of cinnamon life cereal and pj’s all day since I ran 23 miles yesterday. However, I do want to do some more fall decorating :)

We got a dog (shih tzu) at Christmas, the highlight of my year, he is so cute and good with the kids. My cats don’t like him so much….though it’s better now that he’s fixed and not constantly trying to hump them lol!

Sunday plans include meeting my friend for a run, we usually go early in the morning but since it’s raining, I’m enjoying breakfast and a leisurely morning before meeting up.

Pushups – knees though I can do a few on my toes.

Favorite season – summer, although I live in Northern Mich so fall is very pretty.

No race this weekend, taking it easy for a Half I have next Sunday

Yum I would love some French toast! I’m glad you guys had fun!!! Yesterday we had my cousins birthday party but Noah and I are both running fevers and sick so today involves trying to get well! Have a good Sunday!

A farmers’ market up in the mountains? Swoooon! That sounds (and looks) absolutely perfect. And I definitely think you should get a little dog for Brooke if you’re ready for one. I never had a dog growing up and I still bug my parents about depriving me ;)

I try my best to do push ups on my toes. I made it to thirty once! I usually get to 15 though, and then get on my knees, especially if I’ve done other weights/moves before them.

Sunday is my rest day! Shopping, cleaning and baking carrot cake cupcakes:-D

Today is going to be made up of a whole lot of relaxing!! I need it this has been a stressful week! I didn’t do any running this weekend due to a very annoying femoral stress fracture, but I did enjoy supporting my husband as he ran and is getting ready for his 2 upcoming marathons!

Push-ups on my toes and I had to skip my long run because my husband is out of town.
Today is a run and church and some baking :)!!! Cinnamon Banana Bread!!!
you totally should GET A LITTLE DOG!!!! :)
Believe it or not summer…I am sure everyone who runs says fall…but I actually love summer :)

Looks like a great day!

My Sunday plans include going to the Farmers Market, a workout, and the a baby shower for a friend. Should be a good one!

Happy Sunday!

What are your Sunday plans?
-Run, ab workout, laziness.

 How did your Saturday/Sunday long run/run/race go?
-I did 19 miles on the trail. I tripped over a tree root and banged up my knee 10 miles in. All I was worried about was bleeding on my pro compression socks. But I finished, just not gracefully. I did get Chick-Fil-A and a proposal from my boyfriend…err…fiance…. afterwards.

 What is your favorite season?
-Fall!

Push-ups:  on your toes or on your knees?
-Toes

Beautiful view! Fall is by far my favorite season!

OK that French toast looks so amazing that I would totally hop a flight from NY to Utah simply to try it. I love a good road trip adventure that is based upon food.

i agree with everyone’s comments…that french toast looks ridiculously amazing!!

ahhh brooke would love having a dog. i have two dogs (a dachshund and a lab/terrier mix puppy) and they seriously bring so much joy and love into our house. if you do get a dog, please get one from a local rescue or animal shelter. that’s where we got ours and they seriously make the best dogs :)

I ran my second (and fastest) 10k today, with a 7:45 pace. Way faster than I thought I could! My first thought was how you would have finished 20 minutes before me. ;)

Sunday plans are pretty much always early morning long run/race and then football the rest of the day. I love to chill on the couch and watch football, which is why Fall is my favorite season! Plus, it’s my favorite running weather.

Ran my 3rd 1/2 in 74 days, goal was to qualify for Half Fanatics this year, and I finished strong. Was a very hilly course, challenging with the wind and some rain, but I got it done and felt really great. It’s a really fun one too, all the HS teams and cheer squads come out along with all the military in the area and the whole course is lined with people cheering for you pretty much the whole time. Makes it go by so fast.

Pushups – I start on toes and then when it’s too hard to have proper form I drop to the knees.

Yay for your friend Bangs being in town! I did my long run on Friday since I was going out of town for the weekend for a wedding! Oh, and I do push-ups from my toes!

Sunday = run day= 20 miles.. started out great, ended with me just wanting to get home… ING NYC can’t get here fast enough. Iced and showered up… spent the p.m. with family :) Favorite season, the fall. Push up on knees– for now ;)

I ran a 10K today, went to the Andy Warhol Museum, then stopped by the mall… so fun! I ran a 53:40 so I can’t complain!

I love Kneaders! I used to go there for lunch every day in high school. I’d get a half a roast beef. It was delicious. I miss that place.

I’m jealous you got to go to women’s conference. It was such a phenomenal meeting!

I vote for the dog! ;) We only had a dog for a couple years growing up, and I still give my parents a hard time about depriving us. :)

We went to a national park and did a lot if hiking yesterday, it was a beautiful day for it. Glad you are having a lot of fun with Bangs Friend.

Doing things differently.
SEPTEMBER 29, 2013
First, as I was writing this post Bangs Friend wanted me to tell you hi. Hi.

I did things a little different yesterday. Instead of me going for a run and then eating something really sugary I ate something really sugary and then I went for a run.

We took Bangs to go get french toast at kneaders. The syrup is pretty much pure butter and the line to get this plate of goodness was out the door.

We put Brooke down for her nap and we were out the door running our 6 miles within 30 minutes of finishing our french toast. Not the best idea but we still had a good time together.

And then we came home and did planks and push-ups. It must be fun to be friends with a blogger that documents every second of her day.

Sundance ski resort is approximately 16 minutes away from my house so of course I had to take her up there to see the mountains and changing leaves. We lucked out and there was a huge farmers market going on while we were there.

Me and Brooker by the river.

And Brooker found her best friend. I really am thiiiiissssss close to getting us a little dog. Brooke pretty much jumps out of her stroller anytime we walk by a dog.

Fast forward through a delicious turkey salad and time chatting with my aunt at home…

My cousin and Bangs were finally able to meet up in SLC for a women’s conference. They clicked just like I knew they would. It was the best way that I could have spent the night.

The Dodo. I will be back for more of you. The bruschetta and cobb salad were meant for me.

Once we got home we polished off the chocolate cake from Friday night and watched Netflix. I may have to cancel her plane tickets back to California.

That French toast looks fantastic!

What are your Sunday plans? my sister got married yesterday! So today I was pretty hung over and spent the whole day eating… cracker barrel, pizza/salad, you name it! oh well.. haha

How did your Saturday/Sunday long run/run/race go? I was sick at the end of the week (thank goodness felt better for my sister’s wedding) so I didnt work out then so I would be rested for the wedding and then with the weddingon the weekend I didnt workout either– so its been 4 days…yikes! that hardly never happens. but I think everyone needs a breather now and again. back at it tonight after work!

What is your favorite season? Fall for sure!

Push-ups: on your toes or on your knees? on my toes!

I was sick on Sunday, so definitely not as fun as my lazy Saturday.

I usually try to start my push ups on my toes and then quickly change to my knees. Then again, I also try to avoid push ups altogether.

Fall is my favorite!!! I love the crisp air, changing leaves and cooler weather!! Plus it means ski season is coming, which is my second favorite =).

I do as many push-ups on my toes as I can and then switch to my knees. Usually I can do about 15-20 regular ones, but I really need to get working on some strength training.

Just hung out with the husband on Sunday.
Fall is my favorite season…so crisp and cuddly!!
