Living on Hopes, Dreams, and Peanut Butter.....

Happy Monday Loves.... sorry I am late but I have been kind of suck this week. Better late than never I guess. Last week saw the demise of not one, but two run leashes. The first bit it in the last 3 miles of the long run, I ended up tying it together to finish it out. The second one bit it yesterday when Dante decided to charge a bird. It wasn't too fun chasing him down. I fixed him ... I went to Meijer and bought a bear bag rated carabeener and a leash with no elastic. It worked pretty darn well, although there were a few birds today that about had me on my butt.  Excuse the photo layouts, they are being silly.                 Workouts since last post.   t his is my excitement over broken leashes I have been rocking out the yoga, I finally got myself into a groove.  In the class I am doing on beach body we have finally got into more advanced moves so I am happy and super flexy now :) I got my tuesday yoga in before...

Somedays I eat like a junk yard dog...

Happy Friday Lovelies!!!! I hope you are all having great weeks.... This week I had to remember that not every day is going to be great multiple times. Michigan has been bipolar this week for sure. Sundays run was super cold and I forgot my gloves and muff so I ran back to get it, when I did I hit an uneven patch of sidewalk and fell. I laid there for a few seconds looking at the sky, the pup was giving me kisses and had a general look of concern ( It was very cute ) luckily I was only a little banged up and finished my run and ran Monday I ran too and they both went pretty well, except that snow happened.  Wednesday I went to do my long run on the trail, I got there and there was snow on the trail.  I decided that it was a good idea to run 9 miles on snow ... it was not! about 5 miles was all I could run and I had to walk the last 4, because well I was 4 miles from the car and the car would take me to food.  Thursday I had to be up early to help teach the Career...

Push yourself to exhaustion .... but be sure to listen to your body!

Happy Friday Lovies, I hope your week has been great and you are feeling great. This week has been great I am officially back on track. I haven't had a single piece of chocolate and I am getting into the swing of the plant based vegan days. I have also scaled back on snacking when I shouldn't ... but I am still addicted to peanut butter... ( I may have had a few meals that were just spoonfuls of peanut butter.) I am back down to my lowest weight and today I had to go upstairs and find a new set of fir gear because I could again put my hands to my sides in the pants and not keep them up 👍 Workout Update  This weeks runs have been a little shaky, Sunday did not go well I let the first mile beat me and turned around, I know you should never listen to the first mile but I did... then Dante decided that he wants to train for a Biathlon and tried to take us swimming ...  Luckily I was able to stop myself from going in, and I am sure my neighbors got a good laugh... heck I ...

They want to be like you, be worth being.

 Happy Friday Lovelies!!! Another week down, this week I increased my running miles to 8 on my long run day. Oh boy did I wake up sore Thursday (Alieve is my friend)  The pup really wanted to run yesterday but he had to settle on watching me do yoga. I actually swore at the video during goddess pose. At least I did it and my muscles felt better after.  I also took an honest rest day on Tuesday, ran out of time  because I had to take the doggo to the vet. He has a clean bill of health and the vet was happy that I take him running. Friday Fun Day is in full swing. ran 3.1 in 34 minutes then got out the mask and ran a 9 minute mile in the mask and did my cool down. Today some I got joined in stretching by some of my little buddies while they were visiting daddy at the station. They decided they wanted to be my cheering section (really they wanted to join in)  had some nice stretches between sets. ( My cheering section tonight was pretty darn cute) ...
