“Max It Out” Muscular Endurance Circuit
Hi friends <3 How’s your week going so far? Mine has been great… but today has been “a day.” It’s funny because I posted the above photo on Instagram last night (after a particularly wonderful day) and feel like it jinxed me! I started the morning with an awesome short strength sesh (details at the…

10/6: Meals and fitness for the week
Hi friends! Happy Sunday to ya. Hope you’re enjoying a beautiful and relaxing weekend. Yesterday’s run was a tough one. The good news is that I post-baby PRed (!!!!) but after our 10k time trial, I still had 4 miles to do. From here, my personal training plan gets a little different from the group’s…

A taste of Italy
I would like to dedicate this post to everyone who told me that my favorite Italian olives (Castelvetrano) are at World Market. Not only did they have the olives, some beautiful anchovies and my favorite Duplo bar (uhhh and about a thousand decor items I’d like to purchase), they also had beautiful pasta, olive oils…

Fueling for fitness classes + training
Hi friends! Hope you’re enjoying the morning. I started mine off with a short run in our brand-spanking-new brisk weather. It’s amazing what a little cool breeze can do for an outdoor workout! I’m determined to savor it as long as possible. I did 3 miles and then came home for a short stretch… it…

9/29: Meals and fitness for the week
Hi friends! Happy Sunday! I’m hobbling through the world today… nothing could save me from yesterday’s run and teach extravaganza. I braved the cold dip -alternating between cold and hot for 20 minutes- taught a stretch class, which forced me to stretch, and still: very sore. Even though it was a doozy (10 miles +…

Healthy and hearty chili
Ok, not really… it’s still shorts and tank weather. But it’s always a good day for a huge bowl of chili and chips. Yesterday afternoon, Livi and I didn’t have anything going on, and I figured the weather was too nice to stay inside. We called Kyle and Meg to see what they were up…

Turning over a new leaf
Or cactus? 😉 As we’ve already established, I’m all aboard the cliche blogger fall train. We tend to get a little excited about these things, especially when it comes to the pumpkin love fest. No shame. In addition to wearing boots and sweaters even though the current coolest temp is 70, and that’s for about…

Excuses vs. reasons
Anyone else hear the P!nk song, “Just give me a reason” with that title? How’s your morning going? I am moving slooooowly after last night’s Zumba class. We had SO much fun -Sasha and I hadn’t seen each other since we’d both been out of town- and it was amazing to have some blog readers…
