Back in early October, I met Jill from Lift Your Sole at the expo for the Army 10 Miler. I purchased a cord and three charms, but also mentioned to Jill that I’d love to have one with “MCM Mama” on it. I gave her my business card and promised I’d be in touch. Well, my busy October/November got the best of me and I completely forgot. Jill did not.
Look what came in the mail for me yesterday:
I.LOVE.IT! She even sent me a lovely silver chain to wear it on! Thanks, Jill!!! If you are looking for a gift for the runner in your life, I highly recommend her products. I don’t often wear jewelry, but I’ve been wearing the necklace I bought in October often.
Things are still not great in the running department, but they are getting better. Four days of not running is about to send me over the edge, so hopefully today I’ll be able to run or get some other intense cardio. On the bright side, today the tenderness is gone. There’s still a bit of soreness when I run up the stairs (I’m a mom, no way I can not run up and down my stairs 5 million times a day). I’ve managed to get some exercise each day and I’m eating carefully, so my T’day pounds have come right back off, but I need some endorphins and I need them soon! I’m thankful for the HBBC as it’s motivated me to find ways to move. My goal has been to earn 5 points a day between exercise and fruits/veggies.
If I do get in a run today (and it doesn’t hurt), I’m pretty sure even my California readers will hear me screaming for joy. ;o)
No "if" – "do" run today!
I love the marathon mom pendant. I have a running friend who's trying to get pregnant. I'm going to bookmark this one for a little post-baby gift for her next year.I'll keep an ear out for those screams!
I love LYS and that is a great peace.FX that you can get your run on today and stop being a voyeur. LOL!
Hope you can get out today. I'm the same way if I don't get a run in at least every other day.
Good luck with your run today. I'm also hoping for some running ability this morning.Love the charm – I'm going to go check out her website!
what a cute pendant! hope you were able to get in a successful run today!
The HBBC is helping me stay motivated too. It is hard for me to get the fruits and veggie point but I'm getting more cross-training in to make up for it.
