Brrrr....

Hellloooo! I decided today was going to be the first day I post on our new blog. Why? Because today was the first day of running in the COLD ass Boston weather! I brought all of my clothes to work so I could do my normal run around the Charles River but forgot to check the weather. I should know better by now that you can never trust Boston weather. So...yep...cold, windy and rainy..what else! I was set on running outside today too because I brought my long sleeve gear and I can't wear that to the gym otherwise I would sweat balls! Soooo...I sucked it up, bundled up and set off for my run with low expectations. Surprisingly, I hit a stride and ran my normal route. It is hard not to keep going when you have a view like this! I ran a total of 4.23 miles according to Mapmyrun.com. (http://www.mapmyrun.com/route/us/ma/boston/943919134497) You should check out this website. It is awesome! You can save your runs, create new runs, calculate distance, calculate calories burned, etc.

I feel much better now that I got a good run in today considering it has been two weeks! I have been slacking big time. I will give myself a little slack b/c I was on vacation in Spain for two weeks but I brought my running clothes hoping to get a few runs in overseas. What a shocker that I wussed out...drank too much wine instead!

All right, enough rambling. I am off to pick up my laundry, make dinner and bake Pumpkin-Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins...mmmm. Well I hope they will be mmmm. This will be my first time making them so wish me luck. Plus I need to give my very good friend Kris a birthday call. Happy 30th Birthday Kristina!!

More from me later...srh
