Thank you!
The thanks goes to all you bloggers out there that have encouraged me to get up and run today. Well indirectly, but none the less. When I woke up this morning I headed to the computer to see all that had taken place last night, and read a couple blogs too. I notice that because a lot of the blogs I read are people from across the country, you all had gotten your runs over with and I needed to still do mine. I was so tempted not to do my 40 minute run this morning but I through my cloths on and went out despite the cold weather. I know some of you are dealing with much MUCH much colder weather then I, so I shouldn't complain at all!!!!
Here is a pic of the Hay Stacks from last night:
The plan for the run was 40 minutes easy, but because I am so competitive even against myself I ended up running faster then I should have. Because I am always in racing mode I tend to speed up instead of just taking it easy. I constantly look down at my Garmin! Maybe on Friday I should just run with out it, doubt it.
My Stats:
Duration: 32 minutes
Distance:3.5 miles
Calories Burned: 40
Avg Pace:9min
Max Pace:7:12 min
On the last mile of my run, I was already thinking of bfast. I wanted eggs for some reason, so when I got home I decided to try some of Kath's Sunny Side Oats , they sound so wierd but surprisingly Delicious! I mixed up the combo a bit.
The combo:
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup hemp milk
1/2 cup water
Pinch salt
handful flax seed
1 egg, cooked sunny side up with a soft yolk
About 2 tbsp fancy shredded 2% cheese
Fresh basil
You can't see the egg but it's in there. I also had half a banana with some Zap peanut butter(which I am working on a contest for this weekend).
Ok so the college Spring schedules are out now, so I am searching for Chemistry and Anatomy I. I hope that I can find classes that work around my schedule, I know it will be tricky.
Today's schedule is a bit crazy as always, but I know that dinner will be fun tonight! I am excited about seeing the girls in my women's study tonight, I missed them last week. Have a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY!
Oh and by the way my running buddy, Rachel posted some great recipes and a new website, called Culinary Competitor. I am pretty stoked about this:) You all must check it out!

I just keep getting more and more inspired every time I read your blog!
I wish I would drag my butt outside in the cold...I am just too much of a coward when its comes to this!!! Its been really nice today though, so I may actually head out if it stays the same
It's true - you're incredibly dedicated.
I am very happy to indirectly movtivate you to go running. :)
Good for you for gettg out of bed and out the door. The more blogs I read the more inspired I get, and just think when I first got on here I was only reading 2-3... man I must really be getting inspired these days.
The food, as always, look wicked good... can't wait till dinner
