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.

That pack is amazing! My fav ice cream is Ben and Jerry’s half-baked YUM!
Kristie
There’s an ice cream shop local to me that has a flavor called Zanzibar – it’s a super rich chocolate and it’s so, so good. Standard flavorwise though, I pick cherry chocolate chip.
Heather
Favorite ice cream flavor hands down is mint chocolate chip! However, I tried Red Velvet Cake and Birthday Party ice cream this week and oh my goodness….delish!
Christa
I really enjoy club soda and chocolate ice cream…just not at the same time :)

Ashby’s Cookie Jar flavor is by far the best ice cream ever! It is oreo ice cream with chocolate chip cookie dough, oatmeal, and M&M cookies tossed in. I highly recommend you run out to find some fast! Have a great time in NY!
Aimee
My favorite drink is the fruit punch kook aid. I am 25 years old, and I’m pretty sure I started drinking that when I was 2! I love it!
My favorite ice cream is cookie dough. I like to eat the cookie dough out of the ice cream first and the eat the ice cream plain. Makes me feel like I’m getting two deserts in one!

Sorry all, but hands down the best, the only, ice cream flavor is CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER. I make the chocolate ice cream myself with Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker. After I scoop the ice cream out of the maker into a freezer bowl, i add lumps of my favorite natural peanut butter. The smooth ice cream combined with the cold, hardened pieces of peanut butter is like……well, come on, it’s like sex in your mouth! The Reese Peanut Butter people really knew what they were doing when they combined chocolate and PB. YUMMMMMMM
Christy M
My latest favorite ice cream is Salted Caramel Gelato from Haagen Dazs. Hope gelato counts!
Marci
Favorite drink is Carmel machioto or hot coco with lots of whip
Rachel Williams
Baskin Robbins Peanut Butter and Chocolate!
Kim
I have to agree with you. One of my coworkers will always get the peanut butter froyo from pinkberry–and not gonna lie–I might’ve thought it was a little weird until I tasted some from Sweet Frog last weekend and I was hooked! I wish my sweet frog had magic shell–I would go through almost an entire bottle of it when I was little because it tasted so good and it magically froze! Coffee ice cream is my guilty pleasure that is comfort to me. But I do love an occasional fun Ben and Jerry’s flavor!
Holly
I’m a fan of raspberry line sparkling water and mocha chip icecream with jimmies. Often at the same time because icecream makes me thirsty :)
Jennifer
I just recently had pistachio frozen yogurt for the very first time, and it is possibly the most perfect flavor in the world!
