Happy Sunday. I hope you’ve enjoyed the weekend. Mine has been very non-eventful, as was the entire last week. After Monday’s hospital visit, I decided it best to take a bit of a step back on…everything. I spent a LOT of time around the house and walking the dogs. I’m just getting back into the groove of workouts and teaching.
Today I have five quick photos from the weekend along with your February Workout Playlist.
5 PHOTOS FROM THE WEEKEND
Celebrating National Pizza Day (totally a day I can get into right now) + watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics on Friday night.
4 miles on Saturday morning in some of my favorite conditions…overcast, cool and misty. My last mile was an 8:38! Those numbers don’t show up too often here lately.
Virginia stopped by to bring Zoey a new green ball (I’ll have to tell you the story of GB someday soon) and snapped this picture of Sullie waiting on me to get back from my run. Virginia said she didn’t move the whole time I was gone. MY ANGEL! <3
8 a.m. on a Sunday is THE BEST time to go to Trader Joe’s. I got a front row parking spot, everything was fully stocked and the store wasn’t crowded.
Baby boy was doing a gymnastics routine in my belly last night. He was all over the place. He was active most of the day yesterday but around 11-midnight he was doing all sorts of crazy stuff in there and even woke me up at 3 a.m. because he was moving around so much. Also, my belly button starts as an innie when I wake up and is an outie by the end of the day. 85 days to go.
FEBRUARY WORKOUT PLAYLIST
I’m a little delayed in getting this out to you but here it is!
I’ve pulled together 2.5 hours of motivating music to get you through your upcoming workouts and runs. Here’s the link to the playlist on Spotify. I hope you like it!
Did you celebrate National Pizza Day?
Did you run this weekend? If so, how far and how’d it feel?

Happy Memorial Day Weekend. It’s a very rainy one here in Charlotte and while I am a little bummed not to be spending the weekend in Florida with the fam or by the pool at our swim club (just opened for the season!), I’m also welcoming a slower pace and time at home. It’s been [...]

It’s probably my longest-running content series of all time. I have received countless comments and messages from people over the yeas about how useful they find them [...]

Hello my friends! I hope this finds you enjoying all of the beauty and fresh starts that spring has to offer (and not too much of the sneezing and wheezing). Life has been good over here. I’m very much enjoying the longer days, cool mornings and warm afternoons and gorgeous blooms. Spring is so lovely [...]

I cannot believe it’s been nearly a month since I completed Moab Run The Rocks! It’s a three-day stage race in Moab, Utah that’s put on by the same race organization, TransRockies Rockies Race Series, that I did my six-day Colorado race with back in August. TransRockies truly excels when it comes to planning and [...]
