Because my blogging hasn’t been all puppies and sunshine lately…
Here is a puppy.
And here’s sunshine. This is unfortunately not from today, as it’s a rainy mess in NYC.
Yesterday, I woke up early, laid in bed and made a million excuses to myself why I couldn’t run.
And then I saw a sign.
Literally.
I saw my medal holder on my dresser and thought to myself, “Real runners don’t make dumb excuses,” and got myself out the door with Bailey for a run. I don’t often run with him since I’m usually running either too far or too fast for him, but yesterday I decided to just run for time, and run for about a half hour because it would either be that or nothing. We ran for about a half hour, so I’d assume we ran about 3 miles.
I have 10 miles planned for this weekend, but I slept until a blissfully late 9:30 this morning and have been relaxing all morning, which has been wonderful and much needed. I have a fun blogger workout event this afternoon, and I didn’t feel like rushing back from my run to get ready for the event. (Or doing it on tired legs.)
What’s your puppies and sunshine (your happy place)?
No idea why I chose Frank Sinatra lyrics to name my last post on this…
As I mentioned in my last post, I've really been going through it with headaches.…
(tw for diet culture talk—mostly how it's BS, but how it's affected me, too) This…
I have been thinking about this post for a while—on why diet culture is unhealthy…
I woke up this morning already feeling anxious. (Yay!) My standard iPhone alarm is set…
I read The Midnight Library over the weekend, and I need to talk about it.…

@Mom: I dont think so. He's a city dog.
@Theodora: LOL you and your mom are cute :)
It's a rainy mess here today, too. I am currently charging my iPod so I can get in a run (and hopefully not electrocute myself!).
I can only take Kobe for shorter runs as he is getting older :(. But he loves going out so sometimes it's worth the shorter distances ;)
Sounds like a nice run :) Have fun at the event!
My happy place is running on the Lakefront path in Chicago early in the morning when the sun is rising up. My other happy place is playing with my dog.
Where did you get your medal holder? I've been looking for one and I love yours!
You need to relax and slow done a bit.
