Ok, so I didnโt get anything crazy done with my hair cut. Iโm a wuss and Iโve had my hair like this for about 9 years ๐ The stylist thinned it out and cut off enough to cover a small animal and it feels healthy and fresh.
Check out the shirt I wore today:
Bahahaha.
So today has been pretty lovely ๐
I started the morning with an incredible 60-minute YogaDownload podcast (Power Yoga #1) then meandered down to the kitchen to grab some fruit:
I got my hair cut, grabbed some new sneaks, went to work for a while, then came home to snack on an egg puff between appointments.
(2 egg whites, nutritional yeast and red pepper flakes)
I went back to work for a training appt, then took my new sneaks out on a 4.5 mile test run. They felt AMAZING- Asics never do me wrong ๐
While I was running, I listened to the โWe Are the World 25 for Haitiโ song twice. When I bought it, I honestly just wanted to donate to the cause and wasnโt really expecting to love the songโฆ well, I love it. I also love that the Grobanater (aka Josh Groban) is in it. Yes, Iโm 90 years oldโฆ. and proud ๐
When I came back to the casa, I stretched out, grabbed a giant glass of coconut water:
and an equally giant salad beast:
Greens, cucumber, bell pepper, grape tomatoes, shallot, goat cheese and Organicville balsamic. Foodgasmic ๐
Now itโs time to get my booty back to work, then coming home to make dinner for the pilot and I.
Thank you so much for all of your pre-race bfast ideas!!! The girls and I are doing 6 miles on Sunday, so Iโm going to experiment with something new.
Enjoy the rest of your day!
xoxo,

Something to think: โOne moreโ. One more minute, rep, lap around the track, whatever youโre doing. When you think you have just one left, do one more. Youโll be surprised how you can push yourself ๐
I was feeling lazy and thinking about skipping my run, but this post has totally motivated me. I just got new sneaks last week too and theyโre super comfy and just waiting for a little 3 miler.
do it! youโll feel amazing when youโre done, just rock out to some good music ๐
Iโve been completely slacking lately, but now I feel inspired to out and do my 7 miler that was originally scheduled for Monday. With my marathon 1.5 months away I canโt give up now!!
Great t-shirt! I love your new sneakers. Itโs always hard for me to get a haircut because Iโm so nervous that they will mess something up.
Love the idea of one moreโฆi forget it too often. Hair looks great, would love to see what you look like w something different, for kicks ๐
yay for coconut water, thatโs one of my favorite things youโve introduced me to!
You have me hooked on coconut water! I bought some the other day and absolutely love it โ itโs great after a long run.
Thanks for the โone moreโ idea. If Iโm getting tired towards the end of a run I could down the minutes, or say Iโll go to a certain time and just say โone more minute โฆ one more minuteโ until I hit my goal. Iโm upping my mileage this weekend so Iโll definitely need that!

I lovee your shirt! Where did ya get it? Iโd love to rock that at the gym too ๐
I love the Grobster, hahaโฆIโm glad that you can admit youโre secretly a 90 year old woman inside, and it COMPLETELY resonates with me. Iโll admit that I listen to Groban (and Buble) a time or two every once and a while ๐
ahhh buble! my other husband ๐ he just doesnโt know it yet
I love your โSomething to thinkโ or โTipsโ section.
I definitely keep that thought in mind when going through my circuit training, and end up doing one more rep. A few other quotes I keep in mind are โPush the stress outโ, and โThis is not the hardest thing Iโve ever done.โ They REALLY keep me going! ๐
That bowl of berries/bananas mustโve tasted as good as it looks. And I always love your egg puffs.
Josh Groban is one of my favorite classical-pop singer after Hayley Westenra*:,
