Black Running Socks. Know what's even sexier? Black running socks with shorts. On a 75* day. (Yes, I am leaning against the wall.  I was feeling a little lightheaded from running in the heat without eating breakfast. 3. I only have one tab of the Nuun Cherry Limeade left.  I'm saving it for the race to make sure I drink enough.  You know you have an addiction when... 4. We are considering … [Read more...]

We mixed equal parts POM and orange juice and added vanilla vodka to taste. The resultant drink was a bit too sweet, so we added some plain vodka and came up with a drink that tasted just like a creamsicle. YUM! I'm a lightweight when it comes to hard alcohol, so I switched back to beer after our experiment, but my friend told me that mixing POM, apple juice and plain vodka was even better than our first drink. I'm not sure POM had exactly this in mind when they sent me the juice to review LOL. Since it's been really hot out lately, I've been running with my new handheld … [Read more...]

Running late on my runfessions

Running late on my runfessions

That seems to be the story of my life lately. I’m desperately trying to catch up on everything that fell through the cracks this fall. In the last week, I’ve had a mammogram and a skin check (both came out fine), as well as figured out our health insurance for 2020 and sent in all […]
