10/4: Friday Faves {sneak giveaway}
-My two favorite people in the world, relaxing on the hammock together.
Livi now asks me to please braid her hair most mornings. She’ll tell me if she wants a braid, Dorothy braids or a bun. I tell ya.
-Salmon tacos. We had taco night this week, and this 15-minute meal was blackened salmon with lettuce, avocado and a cumin-lime yogurt sauce on corn tortillas. I heated up some black beans to go with it and boom! Dinner was served.
Dessert: BTO
(Nutella and Reese’s flavor with Reese’s, hot peanut butter and chocolate chips…)
-A new kombucha scoby! The “mother” scoby is usually only good for about 3 batches, and none of my baby scobies were strong enough, so it was time to replenish the stash. I have a giant batch of kombucha fermenting away in the pantry and am so excited to play with some holiday-esque flavors 😉
–These two posts about the reality of postpartum recovery. Wish I could have read these about two years ago 😉
–This article about knocking doors down and never giving up on your goals. Check it out if you’ve been needed a little motivation boost!
-Physique 57’s new website and an all-new cardio sculpt option for their online classes. I haven’t been able to do P57 at home with half marathon training, but I’m so excited to check out their new workouts when the half is over. If you check out the new ones, let me know how they are!
-Fall decor. As soon as this post publishes, I’m heading out to the garage to bring in all of the Halloween decorations. Scary excited 😉
-Another giveaway! There are THREE going on right now– be sure to enter if you haven’t already. You could win a 16GB tablet, a gorgeous cookbook + set of measuring spoons, or these awesome sneaks.
I asked Reebok if they’d be willing to give away a pair of the new CrossFit Nano Speed shoes since I love them so much. A lucky reader will win a pair of the new Nanos in size/color of their choice (based on product availability). All you have to do: leave a comment with a fitness plan you have for the weekend!
Me? It’s another 10-miler on the books for tomorrow.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend <3
See ya later on the Fashion page!

Ran 11 today before my IT band seized then limped another 1 & after ice & rolling walked another 1 on the treadmill (for 13 total, goal was 14). The rest of the weekend will obviously be rest. 🙁
Yin yoga this morning and vinyasa flow tomorrow. Yoga weekends are so lovely!
I’m excited for a trail run bright and early before church tomorrow 🙂 I’m excited about this giveaway. Thanks for offering it!

We are visiting the mountains and will probably go on a hike!
It’s my last weekend before the Chicago marathon, so just a short run tomorrow!
I’m training for a marathon so I had to do a long run today. Conveniently there was a 15k in town so I ran that this morning! Tomorrow is a rest day, but I think I’m gonna sneak some yoga in. These shoes look awesome!
My weekend plan was to run my first half and I did it! Super pumped!
I ran 8 miles through the hills of Arizona today, and tomorrow I’ll either do the same run or hike a mini-mountain nearby!
I take Saturdays off most weekends. Rest does a body good. Sunday I’ll probably go for a short 4ish mile run and do some strength.
My fitness plan for the weekend is simple – long walk with my dog, Penny. I’m taking a break from formal exercise to try to gain some weight, but walking with my dog is super relaxing!
My fitness plan is working on my Couch to 5K program and CrossFit. And, of course, relaxing! 🙂
I have an 8 miler on schedule for tomorrow. So excited to start tapering for the Chicago marathon next weekend!
Walk around the neighborhood and some weights.
My weekend fitness plans include a 10-miler too! Also a bootcamp class at the gym 🙂 And most likely some foam rolling…
Did 45 mins of intervals on the elliptical and a mile on the treadmill. Tomorrow I’m planning a 3 mi run and hopefully some weights!
Zumba in the am! My favorite. 🙂
We are going to the lake for the first time since moving to Oregon from NM. We had to leave our dog so I’m “borrowing” a friends dog (she’s a Caroline dog named Ruby) and taking a hike while the boys fish! So excited for some puppy love:)
Get in a run and lots of pushups 🙂
I am not a runner or athlete, BUT my soccer player boyfriend has inspired me to set a fitness goal for this fall. I have decided to train for a 5k on Jan 1 2014! Baby steps. So these sneaks would be baller!
Crossfit and long walks with the kiddo and pup
Go on a nice long relaxing walk! 🙂
I’m also training for a half!
9 miles tomorrow. The half is next weekend!
Rest today, run tomorrow! Love fall time runs!
Running a tempo run and taking the dog for a walk!
8-10m tomorrow…. without my jogging stroller! Pretty excited about that 🙂
A very long walk tomorrow, I have to enjoy exercising outside while it’s still warm enough!
Short run and getting ready to get back into spin this week!
A long walk on Saturday and a stroll around the lake on Sunday. The weather looks perfect for a weekend outside 🙂
Fitness plan for weekend = today, rest day including breakfast with the hubby and batch of healthy chicken chili. Tomorrow’s plan is to teach morning equipment and mat Pilates classes then head to barre workout and dog walking.
A run along a gorgeous beach while on vacation 🙂
Going for a run with my best running bud, my vizsla Weim mix!
Running after my two kids on an over-scheduled Sunday!
My workout routine each week stays pretty consistent… Monday, Wednesday, Friday crossfit. Tuesday and Thursday long walks with the pup… and whatever goes on the weekend!
Today I’m chilling out after my CrossFit workout last night and tomorrow I’ll be doing a nice, slow run
I ran 14 km today as part of my half mary training
Yoga and I’m going to a trampoline park with the fam! It kicks my butt!
I did a HIIT class with a great instructor this morning – totally kicked my butt!
Cardio, Arms, Abs, lunges, squats, yoga, & Walking the dogs!!!
Shoes look very comfy & I love the fun colors!
I don’t have any weekend workout plans since I busted my knee open last week at at 30K trail race. 🙁 Hopefully I’ll be back action soon though!
Sculpt Yoga on Saturday and Vinyasa Flow or a run on Sunday 🙂
Crossfitted today + a rest day tomorrow !
Went on a nice long hike through the desert mountains today.. and Sunday is rest day!
3 miles with the baby in the BOB! just getting back into a routine
I have a long hike planned since it’s so beautiful outside this weekend!
4 mi hike!
I’m in training and did a long run Thursday, so this weekend has shorter runs on the books. Nice shoes!
Going hiking today!
east 3 mile run yesterday, and 6 miles today followed by weights
We’re in Eureka Springs, Arkansas for a weekend getaway so I’m going to hike some serious hills:)
I did some Tara Stiles yoga videos as well as ran a 5k 🙂
