30 Miles + Many Smiles

Another weekend come and gone, and everything about it was time well spent!

Flowers are blooming, birds are chirping and my mister was home all weekend - not working, not playing golf and not sleeping in. Bliss.

{Credit to my neighbors, beautiful flowers!}


More Running for Days


If you remember that last weekend I ran 20 miles you'd call me crazy for the goal I set for myself this weekend.


20 miles in two days was a worthy challenge, so I decided to shoot for 30 from Friday - Sunday to put myself where I need to be for the month.




  • Friday 7:20 pm - 7 Miles

  • Saturday 8:40 am – 11 Miles

  • Sunday 9:20 am – 12 Miles


 Why would I set my goal at 30 miles in three days?


1. It reaffirms that I can do anything I set my mind to.


2. I've been worthless at getting mileage during the week and I see that trend continuing through the end of May.


3. Why not?


Eats


After my Saturday morning run, this is what I had waiting for me on the counter, piping hot:


{Eggs + Avocados + Jalapenos + Mozzarella}



{Poor Man's Mimosa: Light or Wheat beer topped off with Orange Juice}


Dan is becoming quite the contributor to the magic made in the kitchen and I couldn't be happier. The rumors are that he's been known to live off of Mac n' Hot Dogs - which proves that he's had to really step up his game to keep the woman in his life happy. Thanks, dear!


Special Visitor


We had a special visit from Tanna (Happy Birthday week!) and Olive on Saturday and they were happy to meet Dan for the first time. It wasn't the usual girl-chatty catch up sessions Tanna and I are used to, but we are looking forward to some warmer weather where we can get take walks in the park and take adorable photos of miss Olive feeding ducks at the pond.


Onto the Next


Sorry, Tiger Woods - you didn't reclaim the green jacket but I hear you've still got years and years ahead of you before you retire. Next time. We're still happy to have a son named after you.



Is it weird that I was excited to get to my desk this morning? I have a suspicious feeling that this is going to be another quality week for myself and my team.
