Friday Love List and RW Run Streak Check-In
I'm loving that Milwaukee has had a lovely week, weather-wise. Hopefully it stays nice so I can hit up the beach next week!
This week wasn't one of those super fun, tons of stuff going on kind of weeks. Besides hitting up Blue's Egg for brunch twice, I worked and did LOTS of housework. During the semester, there's so much that falls to the wayside so I can focus on studying. I still feel like I'm playing catch-up.
Moving on, here's a few things I loved this week.
Day 9 of the run streak: took Bryan with me (again!) I'm really enjoying that he wants to run with me!
One of the best birthday presents I've ever gotten (Thanks, Mom!) It's a charm from Erica Sara Designs and it says "Every Mile Becomes A Part Of Me" and on the back my mom engraved "we are so proud of you, Laura!" I wear it every day.
After my weekly visit to Trader Joe's, I put together a "grab 'n go" snack basket for the kitchen counter. I will eat it if I can see it, so putting it in plain view will encourage me to make healthier snacking choices.
Wednesday was National Running Day! Above you will see my attempt at taking a selfie while running. Which is why I look completely ridiculous.
I have come to terms with the fact that on days I work 12 hours, I will probably not be able to get a run in since I don't get home until almost 8 pm and by then the sun is going down. So I decided that my 10,000+ steps I do at work can totally count towards my run streak. :)
I broke my record for a mile (8:12!) and rocked my new Thug Life tank top. It says "I do yoga (as long as it's savasana)". It's awesome.
I also got a new swimsuit this week as a reward for keeping up with the run streak thus far. Because I do better with tangible rewards. :) It's a Maaji swimsuit that the Tone It Up girls designed. I love it!
I also got a bracelet from The Shine Project that is a gorgeous minty-green and gold with a mermaid tail on it. Perfect for summer and beach time!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, I'll see you all on Monday!
