Me too. My morning started at the shiny happy hour of 5:45 am teaching my new spin class at the gym. My peeps were all fired up and ready to go…they had more CRAZY energy than I do. One lady explained to me that the right side of the room was the ‘party section’…they wereContinue reading “Spin, Brunch, Run, Repeat…Wknd Recap.”

Early Birds and Dangerous Stuff.
My day started extra early at the beautiful hour of 5 am. I got up and grabbed my cycle shoes and scooted off to the gym. This morning was spent teaching my very first spin class! I didn’t realize you could have so much fun so early in the morning. I have learned that IContinue reading “Early Birds and Dangerous Stuff.”
This or That.
I was inspired by Athena over at Fitness & Feta to do this fun little “This or That” survey…thought it was the perfect day for it. So herrre we go… This Or That? —> Workout in the heat/humidity, or freezing temps and snow? The heat is just so oppressive to me. Especially when your workoutContinue reading “This or That.”
18 Miles, a Dance Off and Wknd Recap.
This weekend was quite the whirlwind. But I am back and here to tell you about it! Saturday morning started with the longest mileage I’ve conquered in quite some time. 18 miles dunski! I ran with the Luke’s crew and with my friend Christy…it was her first time EVER running 18 miles! She is runningContinue reading “18 Miles, a Dance Off and Wknd Recap.”
Like a Boss.
Today was a little rough getting up to run. Lately it has been dark out in the mornings which isn’t really helping matters so I have been a little bit naughty and sleeping in until about 6:30 am (yes, that is sleeping in for me.) I knew I wanted to knock out about an anContinue reading “Like a Boss.”
Breakfast Running Club and an Upcoming Race.
Last night I did yet another at home strength session. I am starting to turn my living room into my own little mini gym. I brought home some flank steak and garlic spinach for dinner from eatZi’s and while it was cooking in the oven here’s the express workout I cooked up. Squats w/ overheadContinue reading “Breakfast Running Club and an Upcoming Race.”
Pump it.
This morning’s workout – 15 minute warm up…8 hill repeats 100 yds each…30(ish) minutes of cooling down. 6.7 miles done. I wore my CEP compression sleeves this morning during my run. They felt amazing! I also enjoyed the beautiful sunrise by the lake. Lots of runners and people out this morning. Wasn’t too hotContinue reading “Pump it.”
A happy running moment and lazy girl meals.
Wednesdays are the days I like to meet up with my buddy Elyse for a sunrise run- the miles go by while we chat and catch up on each other’s lives. We met at 6 a.m., just before sunrise. We ended up covering a little over 5 miles. I always enjoy getting out with friendsContinue reading “A happy running moment and lazy girl meals.”
Sauna running and my latest obsessions.
6 sweaty miles this morning in the Texas summer heat, like running through a sauna. The humidity was thick, the sun was blazing and thankfully the wind brought a cooler breeze. I knocked out the 6 hill repeats that were scheduled for the day. I grabbed my Silk chocolate almond milk for recovery, stretched, showeredContinue reading “Sauna running and my latest obsessions.”
Fearless.
Happy Monday! I have been nonstop busy today but I guess that’s just the nature of the start of the work week, right? This week is already proving to be a packed one…I am teaching dance class after work at the gym on Wednesday, and I will be hitting the ground running (literally) with myContinue reading “Fearless.”
