Lululemon

Ok everyone I am probably the only runner out there that does not have a single thing from Athleta or Lululemon! When In D.C. We walked right passed Lululemon and Athleta and didn't even notice. We were focused on D.C. cupcakes people! But on our way back we saw the stores!! Amanda and I went in knowing that it was going to be pricey but maybe there is a discount area. I feel in love two feet into the store.

This skirt looks like this

Now I love me some running skirts and all the ones I have are from Target which are cute. One is Purple and pink very girly. But nothing beats ruffles!!! I wanted this skirt so bad but walked out without it. (I've got my eye on you missy!") I might be hitting up my folks for a gift card for my Bday pre marathon!


Ok how many of you own skirts from Lululemon or Athleta? Which ones do you have?

Wedding soup Saturday

Adam's Gram came and taught all of us how to make wedding soup from scratch! It was a blast to learn and eat it! We have plenty to eat for weeks:)

Tid Bits

1. Hi all! I am finally back to school after a VERY long spring break. I have not had this many days off for spring break since high school in NY. It was due to the fact that we had NO snow days! I am actually glad to be back and get back into my routine. I was getting way too lazy. Plus....some part of my body that I will not mention out loud because I do not want it to be true was starting to bug me. Hopefully being back at work will help me walk it out.

2. I went to see my Dr. on Monday for a routine check up and I went in pissed off. I called about a  month ago with concerns about some side effects to the meds that I was having. It took 3 more calls and a week and a half for a nurse to get back to me that I need blood work done. So I got blood work done. Then I didn't hear a word form them. No results nothing. So I went in ready to blow up. So it starts, 


ask: any recent seizures? 
Me: NO
DR: any problems....
Me: um yes and I called you about them! 
Dr: Oh really? 
Me: YES! You had me get blood work done and I never heard any results....
Dr: he checks he chart..yes we called you says so right here. 
Me: Oh that's funny because NO ONE TALKED TO ME! So how were the results? 
Dr: Fine. 
Me: Well I am not feeling fine. 
Dr: he orders more blood work. 


WTF? So this time I plan on going to the gym and running prior to the blood work. To see if I have any issues this time. 

Anyone ever heard of sweating out the meds you take? That is what I found out on a discussion forum for epilepsy.

The day when I didn't move...

I decided that I should allow one day of my spring break to be of little movement. Goal accomplished. I made it from my bed to the couch and never left my pj's today. I thought of running all day so I finally ran to the mailbox and back. I will leave you with pictures from the rest of my Easter.

Easter part 1

First egg hunt where Ella got serious finding the eggs! We also pointed her in the right direction. Plus my bunny butt cake I spent yesterday making in between all the fun. On the running front I ran 3.7 miles to Manda's house, she joined me for another 4.25, then we picked Dud and Robyn up that night and did 3.3 more miles! Total for the day 11.3!!!







HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

1. I am officially on Spring Break until next Thursday! This is the longest break I have had since college. I started my break last night after school with a great 6mile run. I did tempo for three of those miles at 7:57, 7:52 and 7:44.  It felt great~

2. I entered in my run from last night into the Jelly Bean Virtual run for my 10k. I finished in…photo 2

3. I have several errands to run today related to Easter treats I want to make. I learned the hard way though that I do not own the proper dishes to back this awesome treat I saw on pinterest.
