Don't worry my followers I will still post about my life & all my fabulous fashion finds, not abandoning my blog roots by any means, just don't be alarmed at the more fitness approach my blog will take now that I can track my workouts with my Nike + iPod I am more motivated than ever.
Saturday we celebrated David's nephew's 10th birthday with Mighty Fine Burgers and a pool party. Followed by games of nerf ball on Wii. We originally planned to attend a crawfish boil that David's coworker was throwing, but the party ran a little longer than expected.
Sadly I was not able to go home and spend time with my mother for Mother's Day. We celebrated when I was there last month!
I took yesterday off from running and headed to the gym for cross training. I did 30 minutes on the elliptical, then worked out my upper body on a few machines.
Also yesterday morning and I tried my samples of Barney Butter .
It was amazing! It is the most creamiest and tastiest almond butter I have had! I placed my order for a full sized jar and can not wait for it to arrive!
I tried my Barney Butter in a bowl of oats, vanilla almond milk, mixed with flax seeds and strawberries.
I also headed to Express and picked up some new clothes for work. My favorite I bought:
After shopping at Express David & I headed to Panera Bread . I had a Mediterranean Veggie sandwich with an Apple as my side and Unsweetened ice tea to drink.
This morning I woke up at 5 a.m. to go running before work due to the Austin heat actual temp today 92 but news says it will feel hot and muggy at 101 or 102. Yikes! Afternoon runs are just not possible anymore, well I was in for a rude surprise when my nike + ipod sensor could not be located by my ipod. I am so disappointed. I am going on my lunch break to exchange it today. I missed my run this morning trying to figure out why it was not working. I tried pressing the sleep/wake button twice and nothing. Hopefully my sensor will last a lot longer than one run...maybe I should have just got a Garmin after all :(

Sorry you couldn't run this morning. Your Panera meal looks so delicious! Love those Express capris.
Love those Express pants, they are adorable! I hope they can fix your ipod today!
Cute pants!! Way to go on signing up for that race--what distance are you running?? I've been looking for a good distance race in between my half and full--that might be just the ticket!
gosh you're awesome. i'm contemplating a walk right now
Training for a race is super motivating! I started running last July & ran my first 5K on 8/30/08... I thought I might not be able to finish a 5k in a decent time (read: not finish last), but I did great & it was super encouraging! You should enter a "pre-race" 5k before the October race - then you'll have a closer goal!
Just found your blog - my older brother is moving to Austin in the coming weeks and I can't wait to visit him!
Barney Butter just can't be beat ;)
I might have to try Barney Butter. Your breakfast looks good!
It's so awesome that you are dedicated to the point of waking up at 5 AM to run! I need some of your motivation to rub off on me :)
That Barney Butter looks delicious. I am going to have to try it! That is awesome you are doing that race...what distance are you planning on running?
Those pants from Express are super cute! I haven't been in there in forever!
YES Barney Butter is the best! I love that it needs no refrigeration and there is no oil separation. That stuff is gross.
