Ode to October

10.31.2010

In a few short hours, the month of October will be no more. Instead of catching-up on my school work like the good student I am not, I am going to spend the next little while reflecting on the past month… October 2010 was all I could have hoped for and more. No exaggerating here! [...]

True Life: I’m a Chocoholic.

10.28.2010

I bought three dark chocolate bars at Trader Joe’s yesterday. Three. After lunch today, two remained. During my weekly [I kid not] Thursday trip to Target today, where I happened to stroll down the “chocolate aisle”, a new bar fell into my basket. It just fell right off the shelf, I tell you. By the [...]

10.25.2010

I think it’s rather funny that after reading all of your cooking “whoops” [which were hilarious, by the way], I sort of had one of my own. The rainy weekend was ideal baking weather, and I’ve had this recipe bookmarked for a while, so on Saturday I turned on my oven and pulled out my [...]

Race Reflections

10.24.2010

May 4, 2008 I ran my 1st half-marathon at age 18. May 3, 2009 I ran my 2nd half-marathon on my home turf. One week ago today, October 17, 2010, I ran my 3rd half-marathon with 20,000 others. That would be my iPod on my hip & camera in my hand. I never knew that [...]

A Super[food] Saturday

10.23.2010

Hey hey. How was your Saturday? I’ve had a relaxing, rainy October day full of cozy activities. This morning I rolled out of bed to volunteer with my nutrition club at Chico Preview Day, where we talked to prospective students about our program and degree options – yay, nutrition.

I Run To Be

10.18.2010

      … and the post-run endorphin high is still running, or maybe it’s the fact that I’m wearing my pretty little finisher’s “medal”, and my sore calves are reminding me of yesterday’s epicness. It is weird to think that Nike Women’s Half-Marathon 2010 is now a thing of the past. I have been [...]
