I got me a Davis sandwich!
Such a fun Do Life meetup this morning. It was a little cold and rainy, but the 30 or so people laughing, running and swapping stories more than made up for the weather.
Aaron and I got some awesome photos and video clips! I’m gonna go ahead and say the Do Life video we’re gonna put together will. be. sick.
Post-meetup smoothie:
-Frozen mangoes
-Frozen strawberries
-Frozen pineapple chunks
-Soy milk
Can you tell that I recently discovered my roommate owns a blender?
We got downtown early for the Do Life meetup and have sought shelter in Starbucks. Obvs.
YESSSS! I’ve convinced Aaron to do Jillian Michaels’ 40-minute No More Trouble Zones DVD with me. He’s on his way over and has no idea what he’s in for.
Time to get rid of the muffin top, saddle bags and arm jiggle!
Wait a sec… he doesn’t have any of that. Jerk.
Oh well, it’ll be a good workout anyway!
1) I ordered a foam roller from Amazon last night. When I have to choose between running outside or running on the treadmill at the gym, the deciding factor lately has been being able to use a foam roller when I go to the gym. I’m hating the treadmill, though. My very own foam roller will release me into the wild!
2) I’ve been having shin pain, which I haven’t had since I first started getting into running. I believe I need new shoes – I’ve been running on my current ones for about a year. Perhaps this will happen this weekend? Excitement.
3) I’m flirting with joining the American Cancer Society’s DetermiNation team to train and fundraise for the Seattle Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon (June 25). I’m already signed up for the race, but having a training group and putting in some fundraising effort along with the physical effort could be really great. Currently swapping emails with the Seattle coach to get more info.
4) This weekend, Aaron and I are going to run the route of my April 10K to get a feel for hills, weird turns, etc. This’ll be the first time I’ve done this for a race. I feel Smart.
That’s all for now! Hope everyone has a kickass start to the weekend!
Smile Friday!
Just found this photo on my phone: me rocking a total gem of a Christmas gift. Notice the matching socks with dingleballs (pom-poms? whatever) on them.
Don’t be too intimidated.
Softball season is approaching!! I play on my company team, which is part of Seattle’s RAT (Radio, Advertising and Television) league. Not sure who decided that RAT was the best acronym to go with, but OK…
We play teams from the local TV and radio stations, other ad agencies and even a little-known startup called “Google.” (I’m sure it’ll take off someday.)
My softball skills can only be described as exquisite, and I play the following positions:
-Girl Who Screams When the Ball Comes Near Her
-Catcher Who Usually Doesn’t Catch the Ball
-Pinch Runner
-Scorekeeper
I’m gunning for MVP this year, baby. Watch out.
No big deal. Just an email from Ben.
I’m gonna make a video of the Seattle Do Life meetup tomorrow to share with all you Tumblr folk! Be there, and come find me. I’ll be the weird girl with the big camera and the cute boy.
A song for your Friday – Matt and Kim, “Good Ol’ Fashion Nightmare”
This came on at my gym once while I was on the treadmill. Makes me want to go outside and run. FAST!
