Weekend Wrap up

Hello Bloggers!
How was your weekend?  

My 10K went pretty good!  I made it in 59 minutes, and I finished before my boyfriend :) 

I had such a great time!  It's a really good feeling waking up at the butt crack of dawn and knocking out 6 miles.. 

But don't worry, I def made up for the calories lost! 

Here's a snap of after the race

We were VERY tired.. I def recommend a good nights rest before a race.. we were just having too much fun.

Oh and look at these awesome new jeans I bought this weekend!  

The dressing room attendant INSISTED that my size 4 was too baggy, so I gladly bought the size 2..

Its my first pair of COLORED jeans! 

$49.50 @ Express..  And I had a $50 coupon, so they were basically free.

So hurry over! 

That's all you get.. lol 

I wanna talk about ME!

Hi Blogger's!

This is all I have for now, but I'm an open book and I'm always learning!  

I've been lacking in the sleep department, so I'm going to take a little siesta before my dentist appointment.. 

I'm running the 10K tomorrow!  

You know what that means.. Carb Overload TONIGHT!

S*&! just got real.. 

I'll let you know all about it! 

An apple a day..

Hi Bloggers!

I miss yewww!  Summer school really kicked my booty..

SO!  Lets chat!  My soccer team tied our game yesterday (I'll take it)

I made my first pastel piece of art! Nick is really into pastels so I dabbled a little.. 

I registered for the CNA program (yay!)

Annddd I am running a 10k Saturday and Nick his Dad!  I will literally do WHATEVER it take to finish before them!  Seriously going to be throwing bo's Saturday so WATCH OUT! 

Here's my little tidbit of information for the day... 

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

Remember that little trick your brother used to play on you.. hold your tongue and say Apple!  

Got Ya! 

NO seriously.. Did you know... 

The skin of an apple contains Pectin, which lowers blood pressure. 

Filled with fiber, apples are very filling.

Apples reduce the risk of several types of cancer by over 40% including breast, colon, liver, and lung.

Chewing apples lowers tooth decay.

Apple juice reduces the effects of aging on the brain; preventing alzheimer's.

Eating apples helps with diarrhea and constipation.

Apples boost your immune system.

 

Other than eatting an apple with peanut butter, I also enjoy them in a smoothie!

I am not a fan of warm fruit.. so this is the closest I get to Apple Pie.. 

Apple Pie Smoothie

1 Scoop Vanilla Protien

I Raw Apple

 1 TSP Vanilla

1 Tsp Cinnamon

Splash of Milk

Combine in blender and enjoy!
