I've tried those and didn't care for them. I used to get the Special K Morning Shake (strawberry flavored), but I can't find it anymore.

My traditional meal before any long run, including before my first marathon is spaghetti. I sometimes add garlic bread to it. If I remember right the day before my first marathon, I had chocolate ice cream as well. By the way - best of luck on your first marathon!! Crossing the finish line after your first is the most…

6k run at lunch. It was speed drills days!

Yummy!!! Bacon Cheeseburger

I'm 5'2" and I'm 40. My goal is to get between 115-120. I'm at 134 right now. Nothing lost in the last 2 weeks, but nothing also gained either with the way I've been snacking and not working out - which is a good thing!

In Canada the thin mints are only in the fall. This time of year it's only the classics of vanilla and chocolate.

Eating breakfast before starting work

Some yummy sounding ideas! Thanks!

Things have slowed down at work. I'm hoping it picks back up again soon! I'm helping a couple of the other girls in the meantime, so I'm not sitting here doing nothing. Saturday I ran 10k - WITH NO WALK BREAKS!!! I haven't been able to do that in over 2 years! It felt so good! I really hope I can get out this Saturday for…

Baked pork chop (I think I put a few too many spices on it!), cheesy mashed potatoes and mixed veggies.

My weekday breakfasts are packed and eaten at work. I do muffins (blueberry or blueberry bran) and cinnamon rolls. Nothing to big.

kdbulger - To run commute to work would mean going over a highway (which where I live is illegal to walk/run/bike along side a highway) and over 20km. Theoldbuy1 - I wish I could afford unlimited data! I'm looking into options for a different alarm clock. Maybe one that screams at me! :D :D :D :D :D

chocolate lava cake

YUM!! Brocolli

Mitch239 - I should look for that jbruced - This race has no "early bird" pricing. It's just one fee. I wish I could register early. I just got caught up on being behind on bills. Stupid me once again didn't save for Christmas (or December as I call it as I have three immediate family birthdays in December) and I haven't…

No WIFI on the bus :)

That is very much a need.

I actually do use my actual Bible. I have a Bible app, but I rarely use it.

Mixture of both. Tuesday I didn't get up on time but did get myself out the door later. Last night I couldn't make myself get out for my 6k run. It was to long for a lunch run (I need 10 minutes before and after the run for changing) and the wind was so bitterly cold last night, I couldn't bring up the courage to go!

1) I'm training for half on April 18. I'm not registered for it yet, as I still need the money to. However, I'm not starting my training after I register, as it would only be 1-2 months way at that point!!! 2) I just find it hard sometimes to get back out the door. It's easier if I pack a snack to eat around 4pm, so I'm…

It already goes off at 4:30 (and every 5 minutes between 4:30 and 5:00) I need to have my Bible study time before my run. Depending on the length I need to do, I need to leave between 5:45-6:00. I need to be home to get ready for work by 6:30, as I leave for my bus at 7:10.

I had a cat that was good at that. (I'm not a dog person.) However, where I live I'm not allowed either.

Because I love to run. Getting it done in the morning, means I don't need to try to get it in when I get home. I'm training for a half-marathon. My runs are starting to get to long to do on my lunch break at work.

Jenny - That sounds so nice!! Way to cold up here to walk the beach. Though with the rain we got on Sunday almost all the snow on the ground is gone. That won't last long. Another Sunday storm moving in. I ran at home last night! I've been doing my runs on my lunch break to run in daylight. On the weekend I struggle to get…

Jenny - Congratulations on the new house! Glad Russ wasn't injured to bad. Hope this means he will turn a light on now! I've had a lazy week. Not fully eating right and not running. I did 5k on my lunch today with NO walk breaks. My time is getting better which is good! I'm getting closer to that fact I can hopefully set a…

Brrrr Temperature is dropping. It was some blustery this morning with the blowing snow. The temperature has only been dropping since then. Supposed to get down to around -25C. I know it's a lot colder then that out in Alberta, so I'm not going to complain to much! It will be hard to get out for my run tomorrow morning. The…

Marla - That's amazing! I wish I could have done that well when I was in college! I went to BodyPump last night. Haven't gone in about a month. I can tell this morning. :p I also got my run in this morning BEFORE work! Amazed myself in getting up on time and getting out the door. I had to. I won't have a chance to run on…

I ignore my calories adjustment from my Garmin. Espcially since some of it would be a slight overlap from my running or cardio workout. I only use the calories from running or my cross-training workout to count as my calories burned for the day.
