Soooo me being me… I had to accomplish the 10 miles that was haunting me…
My last class for the day got cancelled so I was able to hit da pavement (HECK YEAH NOT THE TREAD MILL I AM GETTING WAYYY GOOD AT THIS) at around 2. 10 miles in 1 hour 21 mins. I seriously ran all over this tiny ace town enough this week that today I just went around the cemetery for a quick warm up then out to...
Someone sign this girl up with a modeling contract
I am about to show you how to properly show off your new running jacket…
Damn that is one good looking jacket…
So I finally laced up (thanks to you guys ;)) and I had no idea how many miles I was going to run- at most 10…and least..well I don’t know. So I ran to the other cemetery today which has many o hills inside. I don’t know why but I love running in...
My dearest bloggiebuddies...
I need your professional (we are all professionals obvs) opinion.
It is 40 and sunny out right now….
My training plan calls for 10 miles. This week I’ve done 12 sunday, 4 monday and 6 tuesday. My legs feel fine, I could totally do 10 today. HOWEVER- I am trying to look in advance. The rest of the week calls for 5 thursday, 14 friday, 4 saturday and rest day sunday. My question to all...
Ze smelly girl
I will admit it. When it comes to laundry I am a lazy lazy lazy college student. I don’t have free laundry because I don’t live on campus, that being said, I don’t feel like spending money on laundry so I just wait until I get home.
Now- with my new mission/plan/goal/ whatevah the heck you want to call it- the whole only running outside, no matter what…battling the...
In honor of my birthday I would like to share with you my amazing dance moves. This is a video of my friend brit and I playing just dance. (By the way jay and my other friends call me Tit…kids in middle school come up with clever nicknames from your last name…)

A day in the life...
This is what I see outside my apartment….the neighborhood gang is really tough…
This morning in class this random girl was solving a rubix cube while the professor was lecturing….

A chilly willy wally 12 miler
BEFORE: Smile on my face and unaware of the cold and windy run I was about to embark on. ANNNND reppin my cuse pride :)
AFTER: VERY COLD (only 23 “feels like 14” out) Wind was AWFUL. My grandma hips were really feeling it around mile 8 and I seriously contemplated only running 10 miles. Pushed through and ran through the “park” by the water and came across a black...

Hoookay, so here it is guys, a very serious post about what has been happening in my personal life for the past eherm month-ish. If you recall earlier this month I had a melt down, which we all could probably tell was coming. Anyways, from this post I received many messages and emails about what I should do, how similar things had happened to them, and suggestions about different types of food I...

Holding True
As I posted yesterday no matter what the weather is I will be running outside. NO MORE TREADMILL (but oh how I still love youuu <33). Anyways- this morning it was a chilly 21 but feels like 17 out and with peer pressure in my head from Mollie :) I just HAD to hold true on this no matter how I was feeling.
So I bundled up (I look like an alien- meeep meeep)
And I hit the pavement! 10 miles,...
It's time for a change of pace ;)
I hear by pledge to all of you that from here on out my runs will be done outside. No more treadmill I am officially breaking up with it. I have relied too much on it and it is causing me to not know my pace and how to pace myself properly. So from here on out, 80% (I’m being realistic there will be times when weather will NOT allow me to go outside) of my runs will be outside. Rain, wind,...

Ninja Style
Today I looked like a ninja at the gym. Seriously though this might be my favorite work out outfit ever. I wore my brand new shorts which are so freakin comfy and amazeballs I can’t even express it to you noobs. (um also do I seriously need 2 hair ties on my wrist when I have 2 in my hair already??)
Ran 4miles in 29min 47 seconds ;) then….

Giggityyyy- oh whats up Disney Marathon ;)
WOoah. Today has been great. I slept in until 820 <– WHO AM I??? It’s because I was up until 2:30 with my drunken noobie friends…
I was sickly and finally able to get back onto my training. It was wonderrrful. I need to be more focused if I want to reach my goal of BQing in May. This being said, I need to get more serious on the hill work outs/ speed work outs and more long runs!
So...
CARPE DIEM
It’s not that I’m not motivated to go run right now- because I am (I am waiting to digest the nom-tastic pancakes iceman (my father- we call him ice t, or ice man) made me for breakfast, but I figured hey there might be some of my little bloggity besties who may need a little kick this morning!

LAME SAUCE
I have nothing good to report back to you guys today I woke up at 4 am puking my brains out (sorry for the TMI) and then have been ridiculously sick all day. I only had one class at 9 and luckily made it to that, and then I have class at 630 booo.
With being sick, I think it is perfectly normal that I’ve seriously spent all day watching season 6 of Desperate Housewives….I also did get some...
Attack of the DREADMILL
Yesterday was my rest day…and I felt fine- not tired, not sore…NOTHING. So why in Gods name did I wake up this morning feeling like a bus ran over me?? I thought maybe I just needed some food and then a lil exercise and I’d feel better. EEERRRR Wrong. I felt like I was going to blow chunks right after my oatmeal, so I drove to ATT (because my blackberry is broken FAIL) but it...
Rest Day??!?!?! What is this.
This morning after my class I came home and realized I have NOTHING to do all day. Its my rest day (woah, Caitlin taking a rest day??? am I sick? no.. I am attempting to be a healthier person). So I baked Pumpkin Quinoa Raisin Muffins!! (For WW followers- comes out to be 4pts per muffin (w.o walnuts)).

Green Silence = Sexxiiii Shoeseses
This morning I tried to make pancakes again today…and I don’t know if its because it was just because I had a beyond epic fail experience with it yesterday, but todays just didn’t taste very good. Fail whale round 2. Someday I’ll perfect it the perfect protein pancake.
At 10am right when the store opened I got a call from Fleet Feet saying my bad ass green silence’s...
Love at first sight.
My morning started with this delishness. I originally had made pancakes but they turned out super flat and not good at all, so I threw those puppies out and made a quick bowl of my favs.
In the goods:
Oikos Greek Yogurt- Honey,
handful of cinnamon puffins
apples, blueberries, peaches and half a banana and a couple sliced strawbs.
I then, as we know, made some McSteamy Cookies and read...

As you all know for the past couple days/ weeks/months/life I’ve been going through some stuff. Long story short- today after an awesome run (used random setting on the machine, did 6.43 miles in 48:13 minutes- felt great). I then went up to the studio to stretch and I was going to do abs and push ups. *cue the mental breakdown*
