So I signed up for another marathon: Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, MN! I was going back and forth and back and forth every day about whether or not I should do it. I really wanted to train and run it, but I wasn’t sure if my body would be ready for another one. After a couple of pain-free runs I decided to just go for it, but made a promise to myself that I would go to yoga once a week. With a commitment to regular yoga and strength training along with a slow increase of weekly mileage I should be able to handle it… and have a lot of fun while doing it.
Now that I am registered I am so, so, so very excited!! The marathon is June 20 and then on June 25 I fly out to Peru to hike the Inca Trail and hang out in Lima with some girlfriends. Basically, June will be an awesome month. Awesome like these things:
- Pasta with eggs. I can get down with this. Especially these: spaghetti pangrattato with crispy eggs, carbonara pasta with charred brussels sprouts, and charred cauliflower carbonara.
- Sleeping is important, so having a few sleeping tricks up your pillow sham sleeve is never a bad thing.
- Another trick: how to stop yourself from crying. I have robot tendencies and rarely cry, but it may come in handy sometime in the future.
- This diy envelope laptop case is adorable. Want.
- Leslie Knope is so full of wisdom.
Side note: YogaFit just opened a studio in Northeast. They also have studios in Excelsior and Linden Hills and have plans to open 6ish more studios across the metro. You get your first week free, so go check it out!
Annnddd if you ever want to go to yoga, lemme know.
Namaste, jd
