Carbapalooza

You guys I have decided to go paleo have I got all the right foods? Haha just kidding. As you may have noticed this week I am all about the CARBS. I love carbs, in all forms, especially when fried or covered with cheese. I have recently realized that I am much more of a … Continue reading

Crazy dreams: Marathon edition

Since I work at night and sleep during the day for the most part, I have pretty crazy dreams pretty frequently. I am pretty sure it is because I am not going into a deep sleep, which is awesome! (Not) The LA Marathon is approaching and I am pretty nervous already, not necessarily for the running part, … Continue reading

Mo money mo problems

As your average millennial with too many student loans paying a lot for rent, I sometimes struggle to balance my finances as we all do. I am not in a financial crisis, but I have decided recently maybe it is time for some changes and would like my Internet friends’ input and accountability. I’ve found that although … Continue reading

Some good yoga poses for hurting legs

Like I’ve said before, since beginning to marathon train I have relied a lot on yoga to stretch out my sad muscles. I feel fine this week because last week I had relatively low mileage, but I’m sure my body will be sad again after my next 20 mile run on Saturday. I honestly don’t know … Continue reading

Valentine

I have never been a huge fan of Valentine’s Day. It’s fun, but I think it creates a lot of sadness and resentment. For single people, it reminds them of their solitary state (#singleawarenessday) and for people in relationships, it can be hard to measure up. The Internet age has not really helped this, as … Continue reading

LA Gurls

In honor of it almost being #anothervalentinesdayalone I thought I’d post this hilarious video about girls in LA: Maybe I will post my thoughts about dating here tomorrow on VDay! Get rid to get depressed!

What not to wear

For most of my running life, I never paid much attention to the clothes I wore. In fact, it was almost like a badge of pride for me. Real runners, I argued to myself, didn’t need to go out and spend a ton of money on fancy workout clothes. I would feel somewhat superior when … Continue reading

Things I see running in LA

LA is a weird place, but despite the smog and urban sprawl, has some nice areas for running. I have enjoyed my long runs here on the west side, mostly because there are nice beach paths. I have searched online for a good website that offers running routes and though I’ve found some I like, … Continue reading

Running fantasy scenarios + some jamz

One of my favorite parts of other blogs is when they post workout songs or playlists they have put together for various activities. This has always been helpful to me because I am always looking for new tunes. I get bored with a workout song very quickly and have severe music ADD while running. I … Continue reading

Luv long run

Something I have found interesting while training for this marathon is how much I am enjoying my long runs on Saturdays. Today I was at work and thought to myself, they are kind of the highlight of my week. I know this is what you’re thinking. Before you judge me, consider the fact that this … Continue reading
