I’ll take this as a sign that it is spring and that I need to put all of our coats and sweaters away in storage until November.

Hmm. my three things today — long run on treadmill (why did it have to rain so hard this morning?!), out for lunch and hitting the mall.

Sipping hot tea in my hotel room waiting to head out for my 2nd half marathon. We’ve been traveling since Tuesday (Montana to Seattle and back) and this is the last part of our vacation. We leave here today to drive the rest of the way home after my race.
I love that you got a Wheaties box with your picture on it!

Reply

I am retouching some headshots for a client.
Then i head to my boyfriends to hang and then we go to my brothers house for dinner.
But most importantly I am packing all that I will need for tomorrow’s nyc half marathon. I haven’t run more than 7 miles and missed a whole month of training due to knee issues so I will probably walk a good portion. But so excited anyway.

You and your sister make a beautiful selfie.

Thank you so much Marnie!

I feel like this training cycle has flown by for you because you have been ROCKING IT! Seriously…I don’t know what your planned runs have looked like vs. what you actually complete, but your total mileage, types of runs and paces are just incredible. And that’s all I’ll say because I don’t want to jinx you before the race, but keep it up!

Today I’m running, eating and going to work at 3! It’s a cutback week for me so I’m only doing 6 miles!

Wow, thank you Sherilyn! I hope you have a good day at work and that you eat some delicious food:)

It’s my birthday today so I’m:
1) sleeping late (did that already, my friends from high school all compete to be the first to wish each other a happy birthday so my phone was buzzing from midnight to 2am).
2) eat cupcakes (I moved a few months ago so I’m going to the four top rated cupcake shops in my city to taste test).
3) out to dinner (I already read the menu and know exactly what I want to order… Appetizers and dessert included).

I’m jealous of your recliner seats at the movie theater! I went to a dine-in theater last night with SUPER comfortable seats but they didn’t recline. Which movie did you see? I saw Cinderella and thought it was really well done! Helena Bonham Carter as the fairy godmother was great!

Running my first half marathon tomorrow…any last minute advice?!

HEY JULIE!!! Good luck! You are going to rock your first half! Trust in your training, don’t go out too fast (or worry about time… just go for completion:), rest and recover afterwards. You will do great. YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS!

The picture of you and your sister is beautiful. It’s great that you get to spend time together. I’m recovering from knee surgery so I’m laying low this weekend, but I may go out to dinner or see a movie later. Something that doesn’t involve being on my feet. I’m living vicariously through running blogs right now.
