Wow St. George us sneaking right up there but I do believe you will be ready. I’m really excited to see you crush it Janaee. All of my salads from the salad bars are always so heavy and expensive. I completely feel your pain.
Gretchen | Gretchruns
MMM that salad looks great! My next race is in 2 days..AHH! I used to love this cupcake near my apartment in college..it had chocolate cake with a nutella core and brownie batter frosting. SO GOOD, but probably why I gained quite a few pounds my senior year!
shawn
I wont lie i fully agree with the bread at Cheesecake factory. I asked for more when was last there in south beach Miami.
Anne @ annetracks

Half marathon training starts for me this week! I do my first Rock and Roll in October. In the meantime, I have a 4-mile race the beginning of September and an 8K at the end of that month. This will be my second half. Lessons learned from the first time around: do not ignore strength training and intervals! I did a lot of cardio-based cross training last time around (zumba and yoga), but I need to get serious about getting strong and fast. I’m hoping to beat my last time!
Angie @ Pace with Grace Blog
Your cupcake is my favorite! Yum.

Grace @ Diary of a Running Snail
I am loving Brooke’s navy/yellow combo. She is really the most stylish 3 year old ever!
Coconut and chocolate sounds like a pretty unbeatable combo! I also love lemon cupcakes. My roommate makes an amazing white chocolate icing that I could eat with a spoon!!
53 days until my next race, yippee!
5 words to describe my day: I get to finish early!
Kimberly @ Run with the Roushes
No races until November for me.
I love all cupcakes. I have been sitting here trying to think of my favorite combo for five minutes and can’t narrow it down!
5 words: I’m going to Orlando, FL!
meredith @ Cookie ChRUNicles
favorite cupcakes from Crumbs would be the chocolate fudge chip and the boston crème but overall, any cupcake piled high with chocolate fudge frosting is my fave :) The Cheescake Factory is my favorite salad spot (and dessert spot!) and I always go with the BBQ ranch salad, in fact, it’s on my blog today!
[email protected]
Cheesecake Factory!!!!! I was craving it yesterday. The nearest One is 3 hrs away :-(
My next race is in a month
Maddie @ Dixie Runs
I looooove Cheesecake Factory and their ridiculous portion sizes. I wish there was once close to me but it’s over an hour away :(
The best cupcake I ever had was a banana pudding cupcake topped with nilla wafers!
Clark
46.5 hrs until my next Ten Miler race. But my marathon is 58 days away.
I love the Cappuccino Chocolate Chip muffins at my work. Technically not a cupcake? Can we have a verdict?
Another day in Army grey.
Kelly

The Hungry Runner Girl
bahahaaha I read the first little bit and I was wondering why in the world you were choosing to cap some letters and not the others. Let’s go eat cupcakes and your breakfast is one of the many reasons we are bffffffffs.
Robyn @ Robyn's Livin' Life
Five words for me today: Excited that classes have started! I am working on my PhD and actually missed school since my summer classes and vacation ended. I am crazy:)
That being said- would love to hear updates on if you are back in school or your plans for that! I remember you saying you may be going back for your masters?! I love hearing about people’s educational goals and how they manage the work/life/school balance:)
Nicole (Cuckoolemon)
Brooke looks like she loved the mall.
Lisa @ TechChick Adventures
23 days until my marathon. Eeek, I hadn’t even noticed it is getting that close. I try not to look too far ahead, just stick with the plan for the week :)
That cupcake looks sooooooo good!
Megan @ Skinny Fitalicious
City Creek is so much fun! I was there in the winter a few years ago when I was working in Salt Lake for a client. It the coldest winter ever everyone kept saying. I remember wondering what City Creek would feel like in the summer walking around when it’s warm outside instead of the freezing cold.
Jane @ 50statecanuck
Love your date night to SLC – and especially the video of Brooke!!
I’m headed to Atlanta this weekend (to knock off Georgia from my list!) and running the Hotlanta Half marathon! :)
Did a 40 minute bike ride this morning…humidex was only 91F lol so my words are SWEATY SWEATY SWEATY SWEATY and SWEATY!
Kathy McElhaney
79 days until the Revel Canyon City Marathon!
5 words x 2:
After 10 nights of insomnia…
finally slept like a rock!
The Hungry Runner Girl
YAY KATHY!!! I am so so glad that you slept so well last night! Insomnia must be incredibly frustrating!
Amanda @ Slimplify Life
My next marathon isn’t until November!
And my 5 words (woah, stressful) are: oatmeal, sunsets, 8-miler, fresh fruit
Annie R
Janae! Did you see this article? Made me think of you since you just sent Brooke off to school. I think I can really relate to this little boy right now. It’s basically how i react whenever someone asks me if I’m able to run again yet.
http://www.etonline.com/news/170267_reporter_makes_little_boy_cry_on_first_day_of_school/
The Hungry Runner Girl
Oh my goodness! That little boy… poor guy!
I hope you are able to run asap Annie. I am so sorry you are dealing with this injury, how incredibly frustrating.
Tedi @ running with infertility
Race is September 26. So mine is coming up pretty fast! ?
I like chocolate cupcakes with no frosting. I’m not a frosting girl. My favorite birthday cake is an ice cream cake. Mmm…
Work. Meeting. Run. Dinner. That’s my day in a nutshell (in no particular order). ?
Christy
This morning on my way into work I saw a HS boy walking to school with a backpack with donuts printed all over it. It made me immediately think of you! It was a pretty awesome backpack.
I’ve got time. 247 days until the Big Sur marathon. I can’t wait to do this one again!
jade
I love your video’s!!
My next race is in 2 weeks and I like white cupcakes with white icing.
Kay
Mmm, that salad looks amazing!
Paula
Only 16 days until my 2nd half! I feel like I really prepared this time so bring it on!
Totally agree with the coconut, both cupcake flavor and frosting!
work, Barnes&Noble, cook-out, mom, cocktail :)
Erin @ Her Heartland Soul
She really is the cutest! I love that video!
Nina
I was blissfully unaware that my next half is 1 month and 24 days away, until I realized it’s the week after your marathon. (I’ll be ready, just kept thinking it was further away).
Work, run, strength, sleep, eat.
I like a Hummingbird cupcake with cream cheese frosting. (enough so that I actually don’t share it. everyone needs to get their own).
Caitlyn @ Candid Cerebrations
Exactly 30 days until my RnR half in Montreal. I will always be a fan of German chocolate cupcakes (or regular cake).
As for 5 words of the day “You better not skip practice” I’m feeling pretty sore at the office right now. I’ll go but it’s going to be a struggle. It was good to see this post and your last post about how sometimes you have to do things you don’t want to do as a reminder.
Melissa
-4 weeks!
-Chocolate with cream cheese frosting
-out early, dinner is made!
Abby
next race is October 11th!!!
Chocolate…with more chocolate :)
Run, Pilates, Work, Meal Plan, Snuggle :)

The Hungry Runner Girl
Every day is a beautiful day for Chick Fil A right!?!? Enjoy!
Mary
5 words- So much work to do! (and yet here I am commenting….)
I have an ex that worked at cheesecake factory for a while, people often call that bread the “chocolate bread”. very weird. but sooo delicious!
The Hungry Runner Girl
hahaha… it tastes almost as good as chocolate. I hope you get all of your work done!!!
Loribeth
85 days until my race…………my 2nd marathon ever!

Anissa angleosante
My next race is September 13, it is just a 10k preparing me for a half marathon in December, I haven’t found a half I want to do yet… If you know of a good one at the end of november or December?
Cupcake… Anything chocolate! Red velvet, or pumpkin!!!!
