1. Before I left for the airport Brooke wanted me to read to her the Summer Sanders article in Runner’s World and tell her all about our race together. I gladly went along with it.
Can we talk about how all of the sudden Brooke looks like a five year old.
2. So Fun Yogurt in Pennsylvania had quite the assortment of sprinkles. Their peanut butter froyo is actually the best froyo flavor I have ever had (I have others that agree with me on this one). They also had chocolate Magic Shell… how did I forget about how good that stuff is …. Magic Shell got me through many hard times in high school:)
3. Last night I was standing in line to get a chicken wrap in the Chicago airport for dinner and then I looked to the right of me and saw deep dish pizza. I wondered why I was making such bad life decisions in choosing a wrap over CHICAGO deep dish pizza and then went on to make the honorable decision. (ps I know that pizza in the airport doesn’t count as the real deal but it was still pretty good)

Jetflow sent me one of their awesome Hydration Packs (in pink, which I love).
These people are brilliant. They have made a hydration pack where you simply just attach your water bottle/gatorade etc to the pack. You don’t have to use the same ‘bladder’ each time like the other hydration packs require. It simply connects directly to your bottle. This makes life 1 million times easier because you don’t have to take the pack apart each time to clean it out.
This is how it works.
I really and truly like running with this pack. I sometimes forget that I am wearing it (because it is so comfortable and lightweight) until I feel thirsty and remember how awesome it is to have my water right there waiting for me to drink. It is dishwasher safe and easy to clean and you don’t have the weird plastic tastes from the bladder (because there isn’t one:) It has a great pocket to store things like keys, your phone, gloves, two additional water bottles etc.
It is a winner in my book. I may even use it on my treadmill during the winter months… that is how cool it is.
Enter to win your very own! Giveaway ends on Friday (10/25/13)
To enter to win a Jetflow Hydration Pack leave me a comment telling me your favorite drink or your favorite ice cream flavor. You choose.

Hello!
My favorite drink is water w/ lemon. Can’t seem to drink regular water anymore :) I even put a few squirts of lemon in my sport bottles. Even in my Camelbak — except that it leaks – ack! Please consider me for your giveaway…
Thanks for your consideration.

Emily
I once did a taste test of all the Ben and Jerry’s flavors and learned that I like almost all of them equally. Flavor geniuses they are especially the one with the potato chips in it. I also love anything cake batter related and favorite drink for after workouts and running is Powerade Zero : )
Katie
My favorite ice cream flavor it Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough – but it has to be Turkey Hill.
Amanda
Favorite ice cream is the Ben and Jerry’s cheesecake brownie. I’m sure it has a real name, but I don’t know what it is off the top of my head!

I have always loved chocolate ice cream!

My favorite Ice Cream has been and I am thinking always will be Chocolate Chip Mint. Although Bubble Gum is a close second.
Caitlin
My favorite ice cream flavor is straight up vanilla bean!
Rachel @ Undercover Diva: A Sitcom
Good choice with the deep dish pizza. Chicago pizza is the best.
I really really really want a hydration pack for my long runs since it’s 10 billion degrees here always in FL. I love real, authentic strawberry ice cream as my favorite dessert. My favorite drink is water…but that’s boring
Mia
Favorite ice cream is vanilla bean with Reese’s peanut butter cups mixed throughout, just heaven

Kelly
I’m obsessed with coconut water…takes me to the beach every time! Ice cream…that could be a hard choice, but I’m a die hard mint chocolate chip fan – and it has to be the green kind.
Katherine

Bridie
Favorite drink right now – sparkling water (from my sodastream) with blueberry lemonade Mio for flavor
Lori @ Married Marathoners
My favorite drink (for running anyway!) is water with half a dissolved lemon-flavored electrolyte tab. That would be perfect for this pack – I never put electrolyte tabs in a hydration pack bladder because it is so hard to wash out!
Hillary L.
My favorite ice cream is peppermint. Too bad it only comes out once a year during the holidays!
Lauren m

Sharon
My favorite drink is water (yup, boring), followed by Propel raspberry lemonade when ever my allergies are annoying. Ice cream – apple with cinnamon – which I can only get from 1 shop in town during the fall. Maybe that’s a good thing. :) Thanks for the give-a-way.
JenJ
Chocolate AND raspberry, just like Harry Potter! ;)
Kelly Propst
Favorite ice cream flavor is jamoca almond fudge from BR!!!!
Lacy @ Running Limit-less
What a great idea! I love that there are so many options with that hydration pack. My favorite drink is a toss up between Chocolate Milk and Coke (although I haven’t had one in a while.) I do also love my Watermelon Nuun!
I usually go for Frozen Yogurt but when it comes to Ice Cream I’d have to say Butter Pecan! YUM!!!
Lindsay L
My favorite ice cream flavor is Pecan Praline. But I recently also rediscovered Magic Shell. It is so delicious!
Christina
Yay for an awesome giveaway!
I love plain water or any flavored powerade during my runs. If I’m not working out, I can’t stand tap water and have to have the sparkling kind.
Favorite ice cream flavor? – the combination of lemon and chocolate (if I can have two different kinds), otherwise: passion fruit!
Joey

Sarah
Favorite ice cream is Edy’s peppermint ice cream. Oooh man, I can’t wait until the holidays when it hits the shelves! :)
Sarah
Favorite ice cream is anything chocolate with chocolate, no nuts. (So chocolate fudge brownie or any variation you can think of, it just needs at least 2 kinds of chocolate.) I also love Phish Food from Ben & Jerry’s. Marshmallow cream can substitute for one of the required chocolates.

Courtney @ Don't Blink. Just Run.
Favorite drink or favorite ice cream flavor? Gee, let me decide which one I’d rather talk about. ;)
Ice cream – probably cookies n cream. Or PB cup. Nah, cookies n cream. Life is full of tough choices.
lisa

Meghan
Mmm my favorite ice cream flavor is a caramel with salted dark chocolate from a ice creamery here in Portland. THE best.
Natalie
Ooh I’ve always wanted a hydration pack!
Fav ice cream is candy cane! Fudge crackles, bits of candy cane and seasonal so it makes it even better when the season comes around :)
Robin
What an awesome concept for a hydration pack! I have a camelbak and my fav drink that goes in it is grape or cherry limeade nuun. But fav ice cream is much harder. I don’t like ice cream per say, but I love froyo and gelato. Anything with mint which is great and readily available this time of year with the holidays coming up! :)
Whitney W
My favorite ice cream flavor is pistachio!!!
Kelly
My favorite ice cream is mint chocolate :)
Chelsea
My favorite drink for recovery after a run is Powerade Zero Red. Ice cream flavor has to be a rich flavor. I had a creamy moose tracks once that was awesome.
Tina@GottaRunNow
Attaching to your own bottle sounds handy. Peppermint!
Kathy Frye
Favorite ice cream is anything with toffee chunks. Or Yagoot. That stuff is the best.
HRG, which version of that water pack do you use? I see they have a few. Thanks!
Ellie
I’m gonna go with both here, my favorite drink is a Starbucks soy salted carmel mocha with no whipped cream and my favorite ice cream is coconut milk-coffee ice cream with chocolate chips :)

It sounds strange, but my favorite frozen yogurt flavor is avocado.
Becca L.
My favorite drink is a drink called Milo — my mother-in-law is from New Zealand and they drink it there all the time — it is a chocolate-ish energy drink — but I heat it up and have it like hot cocoa. So good.

Priscilla
Favorite Ice Cream-Heavenly Hash!! Reminds me of Saturdays with my grandmother when I was little :)
Jill Banaszak
That hydration pack looks awesome – I error on the bad habit of not brining any water with me on long runs just because I hate having things in my hand while running and my belt leaks all over. My favorite ice cream flavor is Java Chip – going to rely on a big tub of that this weekend to get my through a rough patch in life right now. Thanks for blogging.
Jenn
Favorite ice cream flavor is Haagen Dazs Coffee :)
Lisa In NC
Favorite ice cream is probably cookie dough!
As a matter of fact…I just ran my very first half marathon this weekend and I think I deserve a cookie dough ice cream reward this very afternoon!
Sarah L.
Any coffee flavored ice cream! (I guess this bridges the gap between the two questions)
erin
cookie dough ice cream!!
Natalie
My favorite ice cream flavor is peanut butter!
Ashley
Favorite drink is lemon-lime gatorade… NOT lemonade gatorade, I bought it accidentally once and even if it is good I didn’t want it at the time so I have a thing against it.
Favorite ice cream flavor is coffee, favorite Froyo flavor is peanut butter from island yogurt in Kailua, HI. You should come check it out to see if it beats the one you had!

It will always be mint chocolate chip! I’ve had all kinds of interesting, fancy ice cream flavors that wowed my socks off, but mint chocolate chip holds a special place in my heart!
Jessie
Love the salted caramel ice cream from BiRite Creamery in San Francisco. I regularly drive in to the city to get ahold of some…..
Miranda Gallegos
My favorite drink is currently (because I’m 8 months pregnant…) chocolate milk. Can’t get enough of the stuff! And my favorite ice cream flavor varies all the time. I’d have to say right now my favorite is cookies and cream or sherbet.
Great giveaway!!

I love yellow Gatorade and M&M Blizzards!
Beth
What a great design for a hydration pack! My favorite ice cream is butter pecan and my favorite drink is the grape G2 gatorade (I’m addicted).

I’m a water girl all the way! Mint chocolate chip is my favorite ice cream!
Jen Allen
I love homemade vanilla ice cream. We add fresh strawberries and/or chocolate chips!

My favorite fro yo is also peanut butter! But I also really like butter pecan ice cream. And my favorite drink when running is water, but I’m not about to refuse a really good glass of ice tea.
Hannalize
Favorite drink is Diet Coke and favorite icecream is mint chocolate chip!
Molly
My favorite drink is Lemonade, especially flavored lemonade. :) of course it switches to hot chocolate in the winter time. ;)
This hydration pack looks so neat. If I had one I would use it all the time for biking and running… and let’s get real honest, just walking around my house. :)
Kristen
Why drink calories when ice cream is an option?!!! I love vanilla and add in all the good stuff!!! I like peanut better, fudge sauce, hot chocolate mix and NUTS!!!
Jovani Ford
Do I have to choose only one?! I love rocky road but also anything with strawberries. But since I’m 8 months pregnant I’m hooked on Banana Split right now!
Stacie
My favorite drink is plain ol’ water. I gave up sodas and such when I was little and never turned back. As far as ice cream, it chocolate with chocolate milk! Delicious.
Stephanie Thayne
My favorite frozen yogurt/ice cream flavor is coconut :)
Miss you like crazy! Love the picture of you and Brooke. You are gorgeous as ever, and Brooke is SO cute and getting SO big :)
Natalie
Favorite ice cream is rocky road..how boring and predictable, I know..but I hate when you buy a shake and they make you think it was chocolate ice cream by just putting a squirt of crappy chocolate sauce in the vanilla ice cream. Vanilla must be cheaper. Anyway, I used to do that because I worked at a shake shop when I was 16.
I love fizz! I like Barq’s Root Beer!
Ada
i always struggle with the salad/pizza decision! usually i end up with a bit of both =) favorite ice cream flavor: toasted coconut from a place here in annapolis. favorite drink: water with lemon! when i’m running: usually nuun!
