Wahoooo! Going home today 🙂 That’s right, I’m headed back to Nor Cal for another wedding. I’m so excited to see my friends and my family, but MOST of all, to go look at wedding sites. The last few weeks Kyle and I have been doing research AROUND THE CLOCK. I think we have seen every single wedding site in Northern California…and still haven’t found THE ONE, although we have narrowed it down to about 10 or so. Wine country, Lake Tahoe, East Bay, San Francisco…(??) God only knows at this point. I did… Read more >

I don’t think I need to explain the above title if you wasted your morning the same way I did tuned into the Real Housewives of NY. I was up at the crack of dawn thanks to a text message from Jess at 6 am. Awesome. Payback’s a bitch Jess, so prepare yourself for a 2 am drunk dial from the west coast this weekend… Needless to say I was jonesing for some caffeine shortly after. I messed the froth up on this one, but that’s what happens when you are brewing in the dark… Read more >

Don’t worry I’m a clean hippie. Showers are me time. But wait ‘til you see my lovely dinner…it’s packed with salad newbies. But first things first. I have no idea why, but I woke up WAY freakin’ early. On a non-work day, WTF!? Anyways, I had a frothy mug of joe to get things rolling…followed by a strawberry chobz with diced strawberries on top. Mmmm…look at all that greek yogurt goodness. I also had an apple while reading blogs and watching last night’s Gossip Girl and The Hills killing some brain cells. After I… Read more >

Rise and shine! It’s coffee time. I wasn’t as sore today as I thought I’d be…in fact, aside from my hammies and glutes I was feeling pretty great. I still decided to milk it (why not), so I scheduled a post-race massage for this evening. I broke the fast with a peach chobz, an apple, and dried pineapple rings while watching last night’s Brothers & Sisters and reading blogs. I loved reading all your supportive comments regarding my race (and my struggle to push through the pain). It meant a lot to me… Read more >

Sunday may as well have been re-named half marathon day. It’s all I’ve been thinking about for the past month. I could hardly sleep last night my nerves were going berserk. Even though I consider myself a runner, and I exercise regularly, training for a concrete event (13+ miles no less) is very different than simply running to get your endorphins flowing. The longest organized race I’ve ever participated in was a 10K, which I really really enjoyed. So I figured it was time to step up to the plate. Half marathon, here I come….
