Meatless Monday: the Tuesday edition ;)
So yesterday just flat-out sucked. I had a miserable day at work, and then after I got home, took Lucy for her walk, and ate some dinner I was just done. I did open my blog and clicked on "New Post," but that was it. I never even typed a single word! So without further … Continue reading Meatless Monday: the Tuesday edition ;)
Week 6 HM Training Recap
I just got back from a walk with Lucy and figured I might as well get my summary post in so that I can (hopefully) post a recipe tomorrow for Meatless Monday :) That's probably kinda hard to read, so here's a recap: Monday: 35 minute easy/recovery run.

Week 2 Half Marathon Training Recap
Week 2 done, and I finished up by running a half marathon yesterday. Not a race, but just because I promised myself I'd run a half marathon on my birthday :) Although it was a good run, it wasn't the smartest thing to do without the proper training. I ended up with a huge blister … Continue reading Week 2 Half Marathon Training Recap
