It’s ALMOST time for the Boston Marathon! I can’t wait until Monday to cheer on all of the amazing runners. Part of Dartmouth Street is already closed. Most of my weekend will be dedicated to Boston Marathon-related events. I didn’t photograph the bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats I had for breakfast. But I did take [...]

I was too tired and sore to join Jared and friends at the SEAC’s Thursday Night Run Club. But I still wanted to check out the workout in preparation for next week’s meetup. So while everyone else did hills, sprints, and other drills, I took the dog on a photography tour around the Gardens and [...]

A scientific breakthrough! I have discovered BRAND NEW muscles never before known about in the human body. To find said muscles, stand in directly front of someone, with your back to him. He will grab your waist and then you grab his wrists. At the same time, you jump and he lifts you up. When [...]

I snacked on a Clif Mojo Bar. Mmm, I love these dipped bars in every flavor. It was a sunny day so I dressed for springtime. Still trying to keep Audrey Hepburn in mind when choosing my outfits. I ran for 20 minutes, changing my speed around while staying in the 7-7.6 mph range. I [...]

Just like Stella, I finally have my groove back. Ok wait, I actually mean that I finally have my Gruve back! My Gruve has been MIA since Friday afternoon. I was really worried that I had dropped it at the gym or in the dressing room during Friday’s lunch time shopping spree. Last night I [...]

I didn’t photograph my breakfast or lunch during Day #2 of the conference. My camera stayed in my bag until I went to Starbucks during a break in the action. Mmm, an Iced Chai Latte two days in a row! My outfit! Dressing in lots of warm layers again today so I’d be ready for [...]

I was at a conference all day today so my photography was limited. I did manage a quick picture of my breakfast: strawberry Stonyfield yogurt, pineapples, a corn muffin, and a glass of orange juice. I didn’t get a shot of lunch. Bread, salad, some kind of chicken dish…typical conference fair and not overly tasty. [...]

My Sunday morning started off slow. I nibbled on apple banana bread then ate some Pineapple Chobani. I lounged around until noon and then had to move it to get ready for my day out and about. Julie came to Boston to grab lunch! We walked a couple of blocks from my apartment to sit [...]
A Spectacular Saturday

Apple banana bread to fuel pre-run. I joined a group of friends and went to the South End Athletic Company for their Saturday long run. Between the headwind and the last of my head cold, it wasn’t a good run. I probably could’ve pushed myself to stay with the group, but Jared ate too much [...]

Trying my best to capture Audry Hepburn’s style, I wore a striped boat neck top, navy cords, and black flats. Better view of the floral design on the shirt. My breakfast cereal didn’t keep me full for very long so I reached for some fruit snacks during the mid-morning hours. I had leftover cheese tortellini [...]
