Three Things Thursday

26 Jan

1. Ever since I got my iPhone, I’ve become obsessed with Pinterest. I’ve started pinning recipes I’d like to try. And then, last week, Becca introduced me to Foodgawker and I found even more recipes to try. As a result, this past week I’ve made dinner 3 times (which is funny since I really don’t like cooking ha!) and I thought I’d share with you what I made. Lasagna Soup, Baked Cheesy Chicken Penne, and Mexican Lasagna. All of them were pretty good but I especially loved the Lasagna Soup, I can’t wait to have it again.

2. I just got back not too long ago from spin class. I LOVED the instructor. She was really tough and was even yelling at us at some points but that means I got a really good workout in. Legs and even arms felt like jello when I left, I’ll definitely be feeling it tomorrow. I also can’t wait to take her class again next week.

3. In case you were wondering, I’ll be in Disney in 24 days. I can’t wait! If you are going to be down there for the Disney Princess Half Marathon, let me know. I’d love to meet as many of you as I can. :)

23-Jan 3 m run Body Works plus ABS 8:30 a 4.5 m run Spin Class 5:30 p Rest 8 m run Rest

School starts this week but I’m determined to stay on track and finish out my training for the Princess Half. Feel free to bug me daily and make sure my workouts got done!

Power Song

15 Jan

If you have used Nike + before you are probably familiar with the “PowerSong.” During a workout you can hit the powersong button and it’ll automatically play whatever song you set it to be. This is my PowerSong for so many reasons right now:

I love it! Thanks to Becca for introducing it to me.

Creating the perfect race outfit

13 Jan

The past few years I have done Princess with TNT so I’ve always worn my purple jersey but this year I’m on my own. This means I get to have a bit of fun with what I wear! :) My favorite Disney character is Tinkerbell and I’ve decided that my outfit shall be Tink inspired!! Here are the pieces:

To start: A sparkly green headband from Bic Bands

Next some wings from Balancing Act Clothing

An awesome sparkly green skirt from Team Sparkle

Then some Green compression socks from CEP

And last but not least, my Asics in green :)

I can’t wait to get all dressed up and run in my favorite race! And can you believe it, no purple?! I know I’m shocked too ;)

Finally official!

9 Jan

I keep talking about how I’ll be running the Disney Princess Half Marathon but up until today, I still hadn’t registered! The website was showing it as 82% full so I knew I needed to finally bite the bullet so I wouldn’t risk not getting in.

Disney races are EXTREMELY expensive but totally worth it! I can’t wait to run this race yet again this year. Plus my whole family will be there so I’ll have plenty of cheerleaders. :) Who else is running it this year? I want to meet all of you!!

No resolutions for me this year, only goals! And this picture pretty much sums them up:

Three Things Thursday

22 Dec

1. Today is Christmas Cookie making day! :) Our favorite little 3 year old slept over last night and today I’ll bring over the kids I watch so that the 4 little ones, my sisters, my mom and myself can make and decorate Christmas cookies together. The kids are really excited and lets face it, so am I!

2. As I’m sure you already heard, yesterday Run Disney announced a brand new race and it is totally right up my alley! It is the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror 10 Miler! My favorite ride and my favorite distance all wrapped up into one! SWEET!


3. I want to say a quick welcome to all my new followers that I have gained thanks to the Christmas Card Exchanges I was involved in! Welcome and I promise your cards are on the way, hopefully you get them before Christmas. :)
