The winner of the Phoenix Marathon Garmin 10 Giveaway is
I have two new favorite pictures of Brooke… Her little personality just jumps out of these pictures.
Whenever I am laying down on the ground (which is often) she loves to come over and tackle my head.
She thinks that she is absolutely hilarious whenever she sneak attacks me and she is getting pretty good at it. My other favorite part about these pictures is the fact that Curly (my nickname for my niece) took them. She is just 5 years old and she got my DSLR out of my bag on her own and started snapping pictures. I see a future in photography.
Speaking of Curly, we celebrated her birthday yesterday. She got a scooter and a sweet helmet. She is the queen at posing, as soon as the camera comes out she gets into position.
Say hello to MY new running store. Utah Run is located at 11055 N Alpine Hwy #200 in Highland, Utah.
This store has it all. My favorite part about Utah Run—> their workout clothes. They offer a huge selection and they carry one of my favorite brands (MPG) which is a brand that has a lot of pieces that remind me of Lulu clothes but they are half the price. I feel like Utah Run has figured out how to carry clothes that are extremely functional for our workout needs but also really fashionable and cute. I pretty much wear what I got from this store all day long.
Shoe walls. Tell me that you also get a little too excited when we see one of these too.
Fuel walls get me every time too (Honey Stinger Waffles and Shot Blocks are almost as good as candy).
The employees at Utah Run are very knowledgable, super friendly and help you to find the right stuff for you and your needs! Go on over and check it out Utah Friends!
Have you ever seen one of these Flip Belts before? Utah Run is the only store in Utah that carries them and they are awesome. You put it around your waist, slide your things into the little pockets and then flip it over… Super comfortable, no way that things are going to fall out and an easy way to carry your stuff on your run.
Giveaway includes a Flip Belt (phone and key not included;), some running socks, a $25 gift card to Utah Run and I am also putting in a bunch of running fuel and delicious treats for the winner:)

This morning! I busted out 6 (remarkably fantastic feeling) miles on the treadmill between personal training clients. It’s not fun to get up at 5 so that I can train clients before my 9-6 desk job … but it DOES get me out of bed and to the gym, so that’s something ;)

Ah! I think i am too late but here goes (i have really wanted to try one of those flip belts!) Last workout was yesterday- 30 mins of running intervals. Then this morning I walked from where I park to work (1/2 mile walk but it’s so cold, it felt like it was 10 miles!)
Sarah
I did 5 yassos this morning, along with some warm-up and cool-down miles, but there was a major thing missing! My watch…I woke up this morning to find out it hadn’t charged over night so I ran with my phone and used the stop watch. I think it worked out just as well!

Teri
I stick to my treadmill and Pilates machine.
Melissa
My last workout was a lunchtime treadmill run – 3.25 miles. The building I work in just got a gym with awesome showers that we can use – for free! – so I snuck in a 30 min workout during my lunchbreak. AWESOME!
Joshua
My workout last night consisted of the following on a spin bike aka my road bike on an indoor trainer. Give it a try if you enjoy a good sweaty spinning workout :) Base the levels on your experience and fitness level. For my level 4, I basically maxed out the resistance that I could handle for 5 minutes at a greater than 100RPM’s.
15 minutes Level 1 Warm-Up
4 min Level 4 greater than (>) 100RPM
5 min Level 2 (easy)
5 min Level 4 > 100RPM
5 min Level 2 (easy)
4 min Level 4 > 100RPM
10 min Level 1 Cool-Down
I then performed 3 sets of planks for a minute each, 3 sets of pull ups X 15, 3 sets of 20 pushups, and 3 sets of 13 front squats with weight/barbell.

Courtney @ Don't Blink. Just Run.
I wish my local running store was that huge! I love them, but they are rather small and don’t have a huge selection.
My last workout this morning was chest/tricep/core. Debating a run tomorrow or not – IT band is acting up again after the last few runs. Major bummer! :(
