Before I get to the recipe, I wanted to share that I made my running goal for the month! 100.56 miles to be exact. I ran twice yesterday so I wouldn't have such a long run today. Breaking the 13.1 miles apart like that definitely helped! I ran 3.7 miles at lunch yesterday (in the … Continue reading New Recipe: Southwestern Quinoa and Black Bean Casserole, and I made my Running Goal!

You guys!! My shoe search is over! The Fastwitch's came today and after trying them on I immediately took them for a test run. They felt so good, and my run was so awesome(!!!) that as soon as I finished, I ordered 2 more pairs! I'm a little sad they aren't Brooks, but as long … Continue reading Shoe Success, and Snowmageddon

Sunday Runday

January 25, 2015January 25, 2015 Laura Runs a Latte Running #writeandrun31, Buffalo Cauliflower, Lucy, Running, Snow, weigh-in

Around here, every day is run day, but I try to do a little bit longer of a run on Sundays. Marathon training starts next month, but while I'm not training for anything, 10k is my usual "long" run on Sundays. I take it nice and easy while watching (Doctor Who) Netflix :) And Lucy … Continue reading Sunday Runday

Caution: Dog Can’t Hold Her Licker

January 23, 2015January 23, 2015 Laura Runs a Latte Lucy, Running #writeandrun31, Bogey, Lucy, Running, weigh-in

What weighs 90 pounds (of peanut butter) and has a 3-foot long tongue? Ok, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but she really does have the longest tongue I've ever seen! Anyone (human or animal) that gets within range of that tongue, will feel the wrath of Lucy's kiss attacks! As you can see, … Continue reading Caution: Dog Can’t Hold Her Licker

Oops, I did it again!

It started with an innocent visit to Amazon.com so I could compare a couple of vegan protein powders. A few clicks here and a few clicks there, when all of a sudden I had an email confirming this purchase: How does this keep happening?! Lol! Perhaps it's time for an intervention? ;) In all seriousness … Continue reading Oops, I did it again!
