Every few months I feel like I write one of these posts…
The post where I realize I am slacking (no offense Fallon!), decide to pick myself up by the bootstraps and get my sh*t together.
Also known as this post, this post, this post and this post.
The post where I decide to start kicking a$$ and taking names.
Today’s edition of “Foodie Friday” is going to be a little bit different.
Don’t freak out.
Instead of sharing a recipe that I like, I have a few quick and easy meal suggestions for you.
This post was inspired by a conversation I had with one of my best friends a few weeks ago.
She was complaining commenting on how she never has time to cook dinner because she is so busy working,
taking care of her family,
cleaning the house,
and of course,
working out.
gave her a few suggestions that I use to make my meal prep Monday as short and sweet as possible.
I thought it would be a great idea to share those tips with you…
So here we goooooo!
Last week I challenged you to share with me the reasons why you do this crazy thing called running.
The response that I received was overwhelmingly awesome!
It was so cool to read everyone’s reasons, because they are all so different.
Looking for some motivation?
Read the stories below and I bet one of them will light a fire under your caboose.
I know it has for me!

As many of you know, I just (praise the Lord!) recovered from a minor hamstring injury that forced me to pull out of Rock n’ Roll San Diego.
Boo!
But! I am back running and haven’t had any problems with my hamstring since.
WOO WHOO!
Or maybe it is in my head?
Who knows.
I am feeling a little off this week. Continue reading
They say that “Running is cheaper than therapy”…
Which is totally false.
Running is NOT a cheap sport.
Running shoes,
running clothes,
electrolytes,
protein powder,
GU gels, Continue reading

I have another totally awesome product to review today and share with you.
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
(And by “business”- I mean the running business- because let’s be real here… running is totally like a second job)
As a runner, there are certain things that really piss me off!
I am sure most people don’t understand, but maybe you (being a fellow runner) will agree with me…
Pull your head out of your ass, man! I mean come on! It’s called peripheral vision, use it and check out your surroundings before you come to a complete freakin’ stop. I understand that you are tired, but really? Continue reading
On Saturday, May 7, 2016 I was the 2:30 pacer for the Santa Barbara Wine Country Half Marathon.
This was my first assignment for Beast Pacing and what a day it was.
But, I am skipping ahead a little.

I hope you are having great weekend.
I definitely am enjoying myself and LOVED pacing at the Santa Barbara Wine Country Half Marathon today.
Fortunately for me, it gave me yet another opportunity to run in my Zensah Well Rounded shorts.
If you follow me on Instagram, you have probably noticed that I have been running all over the place in these babies.
I wore them last weekend when I PRed at the OC Half Marathon… Continue reading

I have been wearing the same pair of cheap knock off sunglasses that I got at a wine tasting event for the last two years.
WHYYYYYYYYY?!?!
Who the heck knows. Continue reading
Check out this adorable shirt that I got in the mail from Running Chics!
I stumbled on the Running Chics website a few weeks ago and instantly began drooling.
Holy crap that website rocks.

and the award for the nutrition box with the most stuff goes too….
I was so stoked when I received a free “Best of” Box from KLUTCHclub and there were so many samples in it!
Check out the value you are getting in this one box! Continue reading
I proposed to ProCompression on Twitter.
Why would I do such an ridiculous thing?
Because I LOVE ProCompression socks that much. If I had 7 pairs, I would probably wear them every day.
I found out about Bestowed through Twitter, as I do most products that I receive to blog about, and I contacted them because I think Nutrition boxes are so cool.
I have a tendency to eat the same thing, every singe day (so not kidding on this one), mainly because I am single and too lazy to cook something extravagant.
Nutrition boxes, like Bestowed have been a game changer in my boring life!
Before I get into my review, I need to mention that they did not pay me to do a review, but did provide me with free product to sample. Continue reading
