You wish.

Well- today was pretty much the perfect day as far as getting back on the wagon goes. It was the most beautiful day today. Of course I say that every time it's warm and beautiful here- which is often. But even after living in Southern California for over a year and a half, I still can't get over how great the weather is here. It's insane! Of course I had to take advantage of the fabulous weather and go for a run; being indoors on a treadmill or stairmaster just seemed ridiculous. I haven't been on the beach path in awhile so I decided to go that route to enjoy the late afternoon, and let me tell you, it was fabulous as always. Ran 7 miles! Woot! Here is a picture of the beach path that I was running on. Be warned: you'll want to eat your heart out.



Believe it- that's the ocean there on the left. I stopped for a few minutes to watch the waves rolling in and just feel the sun on my face. It was fantastic. I am so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. And I'm so grateful to have a job that allows me the flexibility to go running in the day like that too.

So here we go! I ran 7 today and still have 6 points left- what about you?

  9. I did 85 minutes of cardio today - all of which was inside because, you know, it was raining ice today. Have I mentioned that I'd like to come live with you until I leave for Aruba in a couple of weeks? Just checking. ;)

    I was on the treadmill today...then I did my regular 50 minutes of cardio with friends...I could never trade living in NYC, but Diz...I seriously need a SoCal vacay like...today! I'd love to jog along that path while you do circles around me.

    You're right....I'm eating my heart out...now I'm off to sleep...who knows what I'll dream about now...? Probably sun, sand...maybe a tall yet socially awkward boy too? Who knows?

    Night Babes!!!! xoxox
