Morning! Well, hello there Friday! I am excited for it to be the weekend! I have no real plans in particular, but it is just nice to have some time to myself

This morning before work I headed out for a Friday morning run with my friend Steph. The weather was great for a run. We both commented that we were actually chilly before we started running. What a switch from the humid sticky weather we were running in last week. It was great to catch up with Steph. We ran 3.79 miles in37:39. It was a great way to start my Friday

Splits:

• Mile 1- 9:55
• Mile 2 – 9:57
• Mile 3- 9:53
• .79 miles – 7:52

While enjoying a breezy walk to work this morning I enjoyed a large iced coffee with a little half and half and vanilla syrup.

Breakfast was a giant Green Monster and a chocolate vitamuffin.

Green Monster:

• 1 banana
• 3/4 of a cup of fat free milk
• 1 sh*tload of spinach
• 1 scoop of Chocolate Green Superfood
• 1 tablespoon of chocolate Vega
• 2 tablespoons of flax seeds
• 3/4 of a tablespoon of natural peanut butter
  
• ice
  

It was thicker today than normal, not sure why, maybe because there was less milk? At any rate it was delicious!

Today’s Outfit:

Dark bootleg jeans (Gap), Floral sleeveless blouse (Old Navy), Blue Cardigan (Gap).

In Other News:

Remember when my toenail fell off on Tuesday night? Well, guess what?! I think my right foot felt left out because when I got to work this morning, the same toe on my right foot shed a toenail!

Lefty:

I have been running in the same running shoes for over 2 years. However, this newest model has been giving me problems: blisters, bloody toes, discolored toenails and now missing toenails. I have given them the benefit of the doubt for about 4 months now and I think it is time to reevaluate what shoes are best for me. People have been telling me that maybe I need bigger runners- but these are a full size bigger than I wear in street shoes, which is what I normally buy in runners. I have been told I need to go wider, but these current shoes are actually some of the widest ones out there.  The strange thing is, there is not pain when these toenails are falling off. They don’t hurt when I run or anything. I am going to visit my good friends at Marathon Sports tomorrow morning after Body Pump to see what their thoughts are. They are always so knowledgeable and helpful.

New running shoes were not really in our budget right now as we have a lot going on financially and Adam is in desperate need of new running shoes too. But, after losing the second toenail in 2 days Adam and I both agreed that I need to take care of this sooner rather than later.

Oh well, let’s see what they say tomorrow. I will keep you posted!
