Your to-do list for today

by SkinnyRunner on June 22, 2012

WORKOUT –

Ran outside in Oregon -

10.1 miles/1:25

slower, easy paced, flat miles

 

I wasn’t planning on running this morning; I was gonna go to the gym but was short on time so I decided to hit the path in front of the house instead.

Check out me, Miss Matchy Matchy with my shirt and Mizunos.

This post is going to be super short and lame as usual: I’m off to get my hair done and don’t have much time. 

But if you want, you can check out a beautiful picture of me here.  We had a sleepover at my nephew’s house and thankfully, the jail let me out on work release.

And if you really wanted to see my fug mug, you could go pick up the July issue of Fitness magazine… just sayin’.

  And no, that’s not me on the cover.  I wish.

TO DO

Here’s your to-do list for the day, yeah we have homework around here.

1. JUST MOVE

It doesn’t have to be a 10 mile run.  Do a 30 min yoga DVD, go for a stroll with the kids or just a few minutes of stretching and ab work during commercial breaks.

Just do something to move your body; you’ll feel better, promise. 

 

2. EAT WELL

It’s the weekend so you’re going to indulge a little as you should (I’ll be having ice cream birthday cake and a little bubbly at some point) so balance that out today with some good-for-you healthy foods that you like.

Don’t like kale or broccoli?  Don’t eat kale or broccoli.  Eat some greek yogurt with peaches cut up and dusted with cinnamon, nutmeg and honey.  Point is to eat something that’s good for you and that you enjoy.

3. LIVE WELL

Laugh, have fun, enjoy yourself.  You only get one today so use your time wisely.

Loved this post for some reason! It’s a beautiful day here in Idaho and it’s good to be reminded of the simple things to be the best we can be…or at least try a little everyday!

Inspiring post! I am totally setting this donut down and getting my act together. Yeah, it’s pouring down rain here in the beautiful PNW, but no bigs. I’m going to do this thing. Thanks for the to-do list!

Did a joke go over my head, or are you really in the new Fitness mag?? If yes, get a scanned pic up in here!

So cool! Can you tell us more about it? Are you in an article or getting interviewed or what? I’d only go out and buy the magazine if I knew I’d get a good dose of SR!! ;)

its not much, just a short little blurb, like one sentence and a headshot.

The crab salad looks awesome! The only time I’ve ever had crab in my life was when we caught some (accidentally – we’re bad fisherwomen!) when camping and roasted them over the campfire. Please scan the page you’re on in Fitness magazine! I’d love to see/read!

Great advice and way to go with the magazine. I’m going to have to go buy a copy and check it out!

Hehehehe…I did about 15km (slightly less than your 10 miles) this morning…but I was much slower (1:22). That was the plan since tomorrow is the KL Marathon (http://www.kl-marathon.com/). Hoping I don’t “die” out there. Have a lovely weekend ahead.

Got my homework did…ran the RnR Seattle half this morning as did my daughter, niece, nephew, and bro-in-law…the hubs pounded out the full 26.2…showoff! I’m sure there will be too many crappy race day pics to choose from. Met my goal…finish before the hubs does! Yay me! Thanks for the inspiration (and giggles). Gotta admit I’m teetering on blog-stalker status…

I’m jealous of your running weather. If I wore that outfit right now, I’d melt, even if I was indoors with the AC on. It is hot here!
