These kids have zero fun together;)
Somehow my snack becomes ‘our’ snack.
“We definitely need one of these.”
Dark chocolate almond and coconut—> shemakesmesharethesetoo.
Just sound asleep in my arms:
My arms tired= he takes over.
This salad from Corner Bakery = heaven.
How we celebrate—> candy + The Office.
—————————–
And to finish things off for the morning—> I’ve got a sweet (and sweat-proof hahaha) giveaway for you!!!
Wireless headphones will change your running life. I was using normal headphones for a few months and then got the new Freedom Bluetooth Headphones from Jaybird and I’m hooked.
“The smallest wireless buds ever with insanely big sound in a stunning patented secure-fit sweat-proof, ultra-comfort metal design.” These have incredible sound, stay in place perfectly (even during speed/tempo runs) and NO MORE CORDS getting tangled while I run.
To enter giveaway (giveaway ends on 6/10/16):
*Leave a comment telling me anything that you would like… how your day is going? Why you run? What you last ate? Anything at all!!!

You 4 are going to make the cutest little family! Congrats again!
I just had to restock my snack foods as my girls have discovered how yummy they all are!
I have a pair of wireless headphones that I don’t love. So I would love to win a pair of excellent ones that I will love!
Heather
Love music while running!!
Kristin H.
The rains have let up in Texas so I finally got to start my day with a run outside! I’d love those headphones for my outdoor runs (when I’m at the gym I have to be able to hear them calling me back to the nursery…).
Taylor K.
These look so cool!! Last I ate was some Greek yogurt this morning, I have to fast for blood work this afternoon and it sucks! I love food too much haha started back up running after taking a significant amount of time off but it feels awesome to be back at it again! Love your blog and all of your tips!!
Ryan Russell
These look great!!! They would be useful to help defeat the boredom that sometimes happen during those longer runs
Kendra
I’m so happy you found a great guy. He looks like he’ll be such a good dad to brooke too.
Sarah Wilcox
I live in Alaska so I always carry bear spray on my runs! This makes my hands full and I can’t be messing around with no cords! Send help. Send headphones.
Lauren
Those headphones would be SO awesome for my runs!!
Sharsti@sugarplumrunner
I’m expecting baby #3 in December and hope to run throughout my pregnancy like I did my other 2. These would make running THAT much easier!!!
Whitney
I’ve never been able to wear head phones when I run… they always fall out every 5 seconds! BUT I have talked to a few people that swear by these. Music would be a game changer! If they are Janae approved, they must be good! I run to feel fit, accomplished, and to not feel guilty eating an extra cookie!
Azaria Rodriguez
Hi!
I run because when I got diagnosed with severe asthma back in 2006 my doctor told me that I would just have to adjust and not run anymore. It was a very sad thing to hear since I was training for my first marathon but that was when I decided that I could push through and learn to control my asthma and keep on running. The last thing I ate was my favorite snack, a banana and peanut butter<3
Lisa
Oh boy I would love to win! My Jaybird headphones died awhile back after running a half in super intense rain. I miss them, they are legit awesome.
Courtney
Pick me pick me! I would LOVE these.
TheDimpledRunner

Bekah Sweat

Such a sweet post, so happy for you! The Jaybirds look awesome, I’m going to look at a dog to adopt today so wireless headphones would be great for our runs together :)
Michelle C
Today is a rest day and my parents are driving up from TN to KS to baby sit for my hubby and I while we head to a wedding in CO. Going to miss my little kiddo and my dogs but will have fun just the hubby and I .
Maegan
Hi! I need wireless headphones get knocking my others out when I run!
Rachel Harper
I’m pregnant with #4 and after 3 little girls (ages 1, 2, and 3) we’re excited to welcome a baby boy! The headphones would make a nice gift to myself! ;-)
Blake
Love the gold!!
Jordyn Hilger
I LOVE your blog! I read your page every day over my lunch break at my desk and then I head for a quick walk. I’m sure you hear it all the time, but you are very inspiring {and funny} to read. I am newly married, newly-turned runner, and hopefully a soon-to-be mom. :)
I’m training for a 10k PR at the end of June and my 3rd half marathon–also a PR hopefully–in August! I would love the chance to win these headphones! Thanks for listening…lol
Jeni
I run because it reminds me how strong I am!
Liz W
HRG!! Your blog feed in my inbox is my FAVORITE afternoon snack break. I’m constantly forwarding your posts to my fiancé Jay with quotes like, “Isn’t Brooke growing up so fast?!?!” (yes, he agrees, though he thinks its crazy that my friend Megan and I act like we know you both). I completely admire you for sharing so much of your life online, and I’m so impressed with your strength and positive attitude both on and off the roads! Love, a fellow marathoner, life-lover, its-not-a-day-without-dessert kindred spirit.
P.S. Congrats on your engagement!! I’m also getting married in August…its pretty much the best ever.
Sarah
Would love to win these, I’ve been looking into getting wireless headphones! I’ll be running tonight after taking two weeks off thanks to a shin splint:( I have ten weeks before my half marathon, so every run counts, I’m running the Sea Wheeze in Vancouver!
Laura
Ahhh! My cheap-o wireless headphones JUST died on my run today. I had to run music-less for the last two miles… the horror!!
Corinne Coates
I just had an awesome buffalo chicken flatbread for lunch!
Michelle
Currently eating Chocolate Chex with yogurt… delicious! I would LOVE to win those headphones :)
Dawn
I’ve been wanting to try out wireless head phones. Happy wedding planning…. Im in the process of planning my for December 4th =)
Whitney Kregar
I run for many a reason, but the accomplishment and joy of completing goals tops the list. As I am now 29.5 weeks pregnant, I miss it like crazy, and cannot wait to be back at it again post baby! Also, wireless headphones top my birthday list currently.
Hillary
Oh those headphones look amazing. Um, last thing I ate was a fudgsicle because it’s super hot here in California!
Brittany @ChasingPB
I have been meaning to get wireless headphones for quite some time (think years, now :) ). I run…well, I run because I can! I love this movement/reason -I am so blessed with working legs, a functioning and healthy heart and two full lungs.
Last thing I ate: half of a pink lady apple (so crisp and so clean, clean), but I’m about to dive into my purse to retrieve a snickers bar I conveniently “forgot” to take out last night :) -runger is real, especially during marathon training!!
Love your blog and love how happy you all are!!!!
Brittany
Stephanie
You all are such a sweet family! My sister and I really bond over how much we love your blog and how adorable Brooke is!
Jodi
My first comment! I love your blog :)
Krystan
I run because I recently realized that my body is capable of running more than 3 miles at a time! I’m gearing up for my first half marathon and I’d love to have to stop holding my headphone wires!
Michelle
I’ve been browsing wireless headphones has a pick me up before a half marathon training cycle starts for me in 2 weeks!
Also having a really good day because I’m starting to feel in the swing of things at my new job, 2 months in!
Angela A.
I would love a pair of these! Running without fighting with wires would be wonderful;)!
Erin
I’m totally revamping my bedroom today for a fresh start after a breakup….at least the sun is shining and the birds are chirping and I’m working from home today! Those headphones look ah-mazing.
Alli
I went hiking with my mom and sister today! wohooo
Arrienne
Oh my I NEED these!! Having a great day after doing a fun hike with my kiddos. These would be perfect for summer running!
Sarah Evans
I need to try these headphones in my life!! :) :)
Katrina G
Ahhhh, those headphones look awesome. I love listening to podcasts on my runs, but headphone cords drive me crazy so these would be great :). Anyways, I have to say how much I love the “Sorry for what I Said..” tank top from Teespring you made recently. I love wearing it on my runs now, and it’s surprisingly breathable for humid runs! I need a donut one now in that bella flowy style :P!
Stacie
I am hooked on being unhooked from wires ? Love the freedom that wireless brings and would love to have that in a quality pair like Jaybird!!
Yesterday I made BIG BIG breakthroughs at form clinic. Pace was stuck for a year and then BAM I am 20-40 seconds/km faster!! When your teacher has your best at heart magic happens ❤️
Kara
These headphones look AMAZING, I fall victim to being a runner that is constantly pushing my earbuds back into place during a run. Especially during a hot run! What I last ate, watermelon! I can sit and eat a whole one on my own because they are perfect this time of year.
Catherine Passey
I can’t wait to exercise, I just had a baby 3 weeks ago and am eager to start running.
Emily J.
I’m finally consistent/obsessive with my running again post-pregnancy. :) These earbuds would be wonderful when I’m out pounding the pavement!
Dani
So hot out so I ate a strawberry smoothie!!!
Paula
These look amazing! I would love a pair. I’m so over wires.
LC
I just need something to make me smile
Amelia Friend
I was just thinking I needed some of these! After a long break, I’m starting back into running, and since I’ve been running outside instead of the treadmill, these would be so much less annoying! I’ve read your blog for years, even when I stopped running, and your weekly accomplishment showcasing other runners has inspired me back! ?
Thu R
my headphones get SOOO TANGLED to my hair, necklace and themselves that it takes me HOURS to untangle them in a very awkward position (imagine twister game!! lol)
Christie
I have never tried wireless earbuds, but I would love to. I am in the final week of training for the Bear Lake Half-marathon–my first in three years. I’m a bit nervous because Saturday’s 10-miler didn’t go so well. I finished, but didn’t feel great. Maybe that just means this Saturday’s race will feel awesome! Right?!?
Juliana
these look awesome! I just ran the RnR SD on Sunday and i wanted to run today but my lower legs are sore-I am hoping to be able to run tomorrow though!
Allyssa
The headphones look awesome! Just waiting for Tropical Storm Colin to finish so I can clean up the mess it made in my yard!
melissa
Oooh I want these!! I have such a problem finding headphones that stay in my ear when running, ont he elliptical, etc.
Last thing I ate was a mini reese’s pb cup :) YUM!
Lyric Andersen
I just found out I got into the school of my dreams so my days fantastic!!
Meesh
Woah, those headphones are stunning! Hmmm. I just had a tofu spring roll from Trader Joe’s and it was amazing as usual. I run because it gives me purpose, and keeps me healthy. I went through my college years living largely inactively (after being a 3 sport athlete in HS), and running came to me in my late 20’s. Now I feel like I’ve not only found a source of fitness, but also a community that has welcomed me with open arms. <3
Jodi
I just went on the most amazing and beautiful hike in Durango with my family. So awesome!
Kristi S
My hubby has these – I’d love a pair too!
Loribeth
I’ve been wanting to try out wireless headphones!!!! And I had some delicious strawberry lemonade last night!
Sophie
Janae,
My day has been pretty boring so far, sitting at the office I am doing an internship at and today noone wants to give me a task – so I spent the day onlineshopping – VS sale started today, yaay!
Other than that I am happy to be in the States for a few months (I am from Germany) so I can enter all your giveaways. Fingers crossed! :)
Sophie

The kids have so much fun together!!! I would love to win those headphones :)
Rebecca
Sometimes you just need waffles for lunch.
Sarah
I love these earbuds! I just ran with my sister for her first 10K this weekend!
Rachel H
I have been on the hunt for great wireless headphones! Also I run for my fitness, I don’t really race or anything. :)
marjie
I’m brewing a cup of coffee whilst posting this!
Michelle
These look awesome, i always have to have two sets of headphones. One for normal and one for exercise, for some reason wearing the sweaty ones when i am not sweaty grosses me out. I also cannot share headphones with anyone, not even my husband!
Rose
I ran five miles this morning – hadn’t run outside in awhile so it felt GREAT.
Ashley
Hate headphones with cords! These look awesome! Would love to win!
Angie Jerde
Headphones with cords are the worst so thanks for this great giveaway!
PS….CoNgRaTs on the ENGAGEMENT : )
Kimberly
Those looks awesome! I’m hanging out with my two little ones eating fruit gushers (little kid candy I know), we just got back from eastern Idaho where my husband ran his second half marathon, the grand Teton half. He got 53/2700 runners, 6th for his age group and a time of 1:38:27. I was proud! Congrats on your engagement!
Haley B
Last thing I ate… homemade brownies! So good! Haven’t had one in forever and was having a craving! Added Heath toffee bits, highly recommend!
Laura Scoufaris
Eating rice crackers while contemplating a 7K run. These headphones would get me out the door for SURE!
Amy
Running is my favorite!
Takeyia
You inspire me. My daughter is about the same age as your daughter was during your divorce and i pray to have your strength & courage…one day soon. The headphones would be an added bonus!
Rachel @ Simply Rachel Nicole
I need these headphones in my life!
Kristine
I am SUPER EXCITED to watch OLYMIPC SWIM TRIALS in 3 weeks!!! My daughter swims (she is 12) and there are several older swimmers that she swims with that will be at the trials in Omaha. The dedication, commitment and years of perseverance that these athletes give for the pure joy of competing is so amazing!!! I hope that you will be tuning in!!!!
Emily H
That’s perfect timing because my running headphones just broke! Other than that, I’ve had a good day with a morning run and a good yoga session! :)
Patti
I’m starving, and anything sounds good to eat….
Jewell Bush
You have inspired me to go after my next big running goal – a full marathon! I’m all registered and two weeks into training! :) THANK YOU!
Tatiana L
My headphones just died! These look awesome. I am eating pretzels currently.
Kerry
Your snacks look delish! Now I am hungry!
Renae
I’m starving and I have to make cupcakes tonight to send to school tomorrow with my youngest- how many of them will I eat? :) But I am also planning to do yoga- so the two should totally balance each other out, right?!
Ames
I just wanted to share that I pulled off my first trail 30K this past Sunday and, while, of course, it was killer, the scenery was beautiful and I can totally see why people fall in love with trail running. It was exhausting but so empowering at the same time!
Tracey
I am doing my fist trail race at the end of the month!
Laurie G
oh my gosh!!!! I have been wanting Jaybirds for so long now but havent been able to pull the trigger on the purchase just yet! Glad you support them–they seem like an awesome company.
Just went for a sweaty 9.5 lunch run so now I am currently sitting at my desk in my wet clothes. Cute, i know. But stoked that i was able to squeeze in so many miles for RUNCH!!
Have a good one and congrats on the engagement! =)
Allison M
Would love to win !!!

I’m so sick of cords..these sound great!

Erin
I have a half marathon next weekend and Im so nervous (because I’m under-trained)!
Mary
my birthday is Friday 6/10!!!

Wendy
I’m so happy for you and your engagement! Congrats
Lynnette
My husband had to travel to Chattanooga for business this week so I’m tagging along! I had the most gorgeous five mile run this morning. I even found a snow cone truck along the way and I had to have a coconut! score!!! I need to ditch my cords. I need these!
Brad Fillmore

I last ate a sweet potato!
Simone
I would love to enter your give away although I am from Austria!

Alaskanrunner
I definitely need a pair of those in my life! Oh and I miss you! Honeymoon in Alaska?? ?
Amanda
I absolutely love following you and I could not be happier for your upcoming wedding! You are truly an inspiration to me – I have never been a “runner,” despite having run marathons, I’ve never been fast and I have a love/hate relationship with it. But I love that you incorporate your every day life into the blog because it makes me feel like, hey, if you can get out there, run, and take care of the kiddo, I can too! Keep it up! And I really hope to meet you someday, I promise not to be too fangirl-y. :-P
jessica
I’m glad to hear these are water proof. I’ve been nervous about trying these because normal ear buds seem to pop out of my ears. I love how much you love salads – everyone here thinks I’m a weirdo for my ? For salads
Lauren B.
Heading to Zumba!
