Set Sail before The Veil

I’m back from the Bachelorette party Cruise! It was a blast, but it’s good to get home and back to “normal life”. Actually, normal life won’t last too long because I’m leaving again Saturday morning for Panama. This month is ridiculous. I’m actually blogging from outside the cruise ship terminal. I went through customs early to avoid a long line. but there was a small miscommunication with Ben and I think I’ll be camped out here for a while. Oh well, at least I brought snacks

But let’s back up to yesterday…

Sunday was the fun Day at sea on the ship. This implies you lay around and eat. I chose to take that challenge very seriously starting with lunch…

This plate has fish and a cheese stuffed corn muffin. I was very thrilled about the muffin because I love corn bread, but it was a disappointment. It tasted stuffed with nacho cheese and wasn’t corn-y enough.

Lunch dessert was chocolate cake, a little bit of ice cream, fruit and chocolate sushi.

After a lot of laziness we finally rounded up the troops for a few much more Bachelorette party games…Susan’s sister is the master of games, seriously! She came with so numerous I had never heard of – it was fun!

After the games we all had time to do our own thing. I felt like I was spending way too much time in the room…

So I hit the deck for a walk. There was no laying out or swimming for me on this cruise – it’s too cold!

I had a magazine to keep me company.

The walking/jogging was very busy in the morning, but quiet in the late afternoon. There is a little golf course in the middle which is cute.

It rapidly got too cold and windy outside so I headed back in for some hot coffee and explored the interior of the ship.

We wore our “Setting Sail before the Veil”’ t-shirts last night. Isn’t that phrase the cutest idea for this bachelorette party?! I love it!

Even though we purchased room Camiseta West Ham United service snacks in the afternoon I got a little crazy with dinner. I started with two appetizers – French Onions Soup (because I had never had it before!).

And a crab cake (because I love them!).

I purchased the salmon for my main course. It wasn’t life changing. Susan go the meat loaf and it wasn’t very good either. Oh well, many of the other food we had was delicious!

Then, I purchased two desserts! I guess I wanted to really live up the last moments of getaway through food?

I got the Baked Alaska – another first for me. It was okay. I’ve heard about this dessert before and expected it to be really amazing. It’s just cake and ice cream, ya know?

And I couldn’t leave without one much more warm chocolate Melting Cake. I don’t have the words to describe the happiness eating this brings me. This is life Camiseta PSV Eindhoven changing.

Our last night of the cruise had the best towel animal I’ve ever seen – a Monkey! benefit – he was hanging from the light. I loved it and wanted to take him home. I ought to have unfolded him to see how they made it, but I didn’t have the heart.

We called it an early night Sunday due to Susan’s sprained ankle. It was for the best because I stayed out way too late Friday and Saturday. I knocked out as soon as my head hit the pillow.

This morning I woke up early again to the sounds of the ship docking. It was loud! So, I got packed early and was able to get off the ship at an early disembarking time. Now, I’m waiting for Ben to pick me up so I can Camiseta Nagoya Grampus start my day! I’m going to try and get a run in as soon as I get home and eat a real breakfast. See you later

Question: I completely missed the real world while I was gone – What did you do/see/eat this weekend? fill me in!

Running and eating April 8 to 14!!

Hello!! So I realize that I have been blogging everyday for the past few years except a lot of recently it’s transitioned to Instagram and Facebook.

Like I said in my ‘I miss you post’… I miss updating running repeat every day but I felt like I was considering that I was posting running and eating on social media.

I absolutely want to keep longer posts, recipes, run recaps and training ideas over here. It’ll make those articles much easier to find or pin to Pinterest if it’s something you want to come back to later. and instead of choosing one way to post over another I’m going to start doing a round up of updates and sharing them here.

I’m actually heard that this is a good idea for a few reasons:
a. If Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest ever go away or decide to stop letting red-headed Mexicans post on their channel I could lose all the content I posted there!! (also I think there are some limitations to my rights to the content once I post it)
b. It’s hard to search for certain articles on a lot of other sites or apps… I’ve had to scroll through tons of post to try and find something I wanted before.
c. It’s much easier to save articles on a blog or web site vs social media update – outside of Pinterest of course!
d. I have a lot of devoted followers that aren’t necessarily on other social media and I still wanna hang out with you!
e. I started to put together a similar end up last week and realize that it was kind of fun to see running and random food pictures in buy of my life. – not ‘in order’ as in organized, but just in the buy of the days of the week.

So… all of that is to say that this is a Roundup post of some of my recent updates.

Sunday: Run day or rest day?

Monday: I’m doing a lil dance for Monday!! ➡ Time to check in for 4.9.18 … – What’s your workout today?
– got a tiny goal for the week?
Check in! Let’s go!!

Example of breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert…

Breakfast: oatmeal cooked with almond milk, stevia and topped with crunchy peanut butter blueberries chia seeds and cinnamon.

Lunch: big salad with sweet peppers, onions, chickpeas, corn tortillas, avocado, dressing and sriracha.

Dinner: yellow Jackfruit curry with Jasmine rice from Trader Joe’s plus extra veggies.

Dessert: dark chocolate with some sort of orange essense that I thought was going to be gross but it was at the 99 cent store and I really need a chocolate and it’s actually incredibly delicious!

Snacks: ( include but are not limited to) incredibly juicy mango, trail mix, Quest bar, spark drink mix 

Tuesday: Run report check in!

And why do runners overshare…?

New Podcast was up on last minute ideas and thoughts on The Boston Marathon

Friday: Run report and check out these videos from my meet up with 2 of the runners doing the Boston Marathon today on the Hyland’s Powered team!! check out my Instagram for the videos (it’s not letting me link to that certain post ideal now).

And a very crucial poll about the Boston Marathon vs. Coachella…

(The Boston Marathon won by a landslide!)

Whew! That was a lil snapshot of my week.

Next time I’ll share my run and strength training workouts for the week but my Garmin is MIA ideal now (probably in my car somewhere?) and I can’t stop and look for it ideal now.

Blogging From Detroit and My favorite thing this week

hello from Detroit! Random, right? I’m blogging during my layover.

But, let’s go back to California for a minute…

Yesterday I packed up all my travel essentials – magazines, Quest bars, stevia and my laptop:

While I was Camiseta Atletico Mineiro packing I snacked on frozen mango. This snack has changed my life.

Then, I headed to my mom’s for a ride to the airport. Of course I had to raid her fridge for dinner. It’s the right thing to do.

The drive to the airport was semi-eventful because there was a bad accident and a complete stop on the freeway for about 15 minutes. happy I worked in a time cushion this time – usually I’m running to the gate like my life depended on it!

And my love/hate relationship with red eyes continues…

I have the eye mask I got in China but it goes around your ears, not head and makes me uncomfortable. So, I made it work

The flight was freezing.

Next thing ya know I’m in Detroit talking to you nice people.

I’m headed to Florida to check out with Camiseta Atletico Madrid Ben and his family on their annual trip to an island south of their home. They’ve been going for over 20 years and I’m happy to spend some quality time on the beach with them  

And now the moment no one has been waiting for…

My Friday Favorites:

1. Mystic Tanning.

2. Coconut scented lotion. I love it.

3. This.

and this

4. 19 kids and Counting. Yes, still Camiseta Palmeiras love them. It’s so random since I wasn’t a big fan at first and now I’m obsessed. Also, I hope the oldest girl gets in a courtship (if that’s something she wants). I think she’s so pretty.

(source)

5. This 99 cent store find. Score. They might be amazing blended with rum, pineapple juice and ice. Allegedly.

Also – today is national Donut Day!!! I celebrated hard on Monday so I think I’m going to skip this one. But, I hope you celebrate big.

Question: What’s your favorite thing this week?

Hello! On today’s Run eat Repeat Podcast I’m answering 3 fantastic questions… exactly how do you lose weight when  you have hypothyroidism?  – must you do a shakeout run before a race? and  – Is organic food much better for you or just a lot more expensive??

If you have a concern for me you can –>>> email it or leave a message on the RER podcast voicemail line! email me at RunEatRepeat@gmail.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line or the VM # is 562 888 1644 .

Weight loss as well as hypothyroidism:

Question: I’ve been complying with your blog for a long time as well as keep in mind you discussing thyroid issues.
I was wondering if anything altered with your thyroid administration that contributed to your weight loss that wasn’t discussed in your videos.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis as well as am so curious about hormones, anti-inflammatory diet, etc…to aid in my treatment (asides from my thyroid meds).
Thanks, Karen

Monica: I’m sharing what I eat as well as what supplements I take to lose weight when handling hypothyroidism. inspect out the links below for a lot more info on messages where I share diet plan modifications as well as supplements.

Note: I don’t have Hashimoto’s as well as a great deal of the concerns I get about losing weight as well as having sufficient energy to run are from followers with Hashimoto’s disease. I have hypothyroidsm – my T3 as well as T4 levels are low. however what I do may not be applicable to you. always speak with your physician before making any type of diet plan or exercise changes.

Tools you need:

Weight Loss publish – notes on exactly how I lost weight as well as 6 suggestions on things I get healthier

Weight Loss videos – You can see my videos on exactly how I lost weight on my YouTube channel here

Diet modifications for my hypothyroid problems –

Why I eat romaine over spinach

Running with Hypothyroidism

Supplements I take for hypothyroidism:

Thyroid supplement – I look for ashwaghanda as well as L-tyrosine in whatever thyroid supplement I’m taking

Adrenal tiredness supplement – I’ve taken in the past however don’t currently take

Should you do a shake-out run before a race?

Question: exactly how do you feel about shake-out runs?  If you run before a race (half as well as full marathon), exactly how far do you generally run?  any type of recommendations on this would be helpful.

Thank you, Lulu

Monica: I don’t do shake-out runs before a race. I understand it’s crucial if you are going for a pr as well as going to go out quick – you must be heated up if you’re running at max speed! however for running a half marathon or marathon I believe it’s optional based on your goals for that race. If you are particularly tight as well as know  you normally warm up, stretch as well as then begin running – keep it the same.

Never do anything new on race day. That applies to warming up before a run too. So if you normally warm up before your long run or goal speed run – try to do a similar warm up before the race.

Is organic food much Camiseta Cerezo Osaka better for you than conventional?

Question: I’m honestly curious if eating organic truly makes a difference as far as nutritional value goes. I’ve never been a huge organic person since it costs so much a lot more as well as I always figured as well as apple is an apple whether it’s organic or not. Is there truly a lot more nutritional value is organic food?

Thanks, Jenny from Jenny Running on Life

Monica: It’s a lot more challenging organic being much better for you nutritionally.

The filthy lots are the 12 foods that are the most contaminated with pesticides – you must get those Camiseta Watford FC organic.

There are likewise a great deal of foods that it doesn’t matter as much if you get organic.

So while an organic strawberry may not have a lot more vitamins or fiber or wonderful powers over a traditional strawberry… the traditional strawberry may have pesticide residue on it that can hurt you long term.

This listing of foods you must get organic is from Dr. Andrew Weil’s website. It’s an updated listing with the filthy lots plus a few new foods added last year.

Foods you must get organic:

Strawberries

Spinach

Nectarines

Apples

Peaches

Pears

Cherries

Celery

Grapes

Tomatoes

Sweet bell peppers

Cherry tomatoes

Potatoes

Cucumbers

Lettuce

Foods you don’t have to get organic:

Sweet corn

Avocados

Pineapples

Cabbage

Onions

Sweet peas (frozen)

Papayas

Asparagus

Mangoes

Eggplant

Honeydew melon

Kiwi

Cantaloupe

Cauliflower

Grapefruit

Tip: If you can’t pay for organic think about selecting fruits as well as veggies from the ‘clean’ listing OR washing and/or peeling the foods from the filthy lots list.

Tip 2: get foods that are in season to assist cut down on expense (since they’re frequently less expensive during their height season) as well as they normally taste much better when in season too!

Five Friday favorites

This afternoon I was Camiseta Selección de fútbol de España productive with emails and cleaning (okay, I just washed the dishes but that was enough for today).

I felt hungry every 3 hours though. I think my body is getting used to eating much more typically now. A bit after lunch I cut up a watermelon.

Don’t worry, Camiseta Selección de fútbol de Países Bajos I had already eaten 4 cups of the stuff before this photo session. That’s the only way I could wait!

A bit later I realized I needed something with protein so I made a protein shake topped with cereal.

Since this is my Friday favorites post and all… Camiseta Brighton & Hove Albion FC I need to say that this is my favorite snack EVER. Well, at least it’s my favorite snack of the year.

Dinn-ah! Burnt english muffin pizzas. because you know I like burnt stuff and you know I love pizza.

Here are my Friday favorites of the week:

1. Stride Gum. After very lengthy research (read: over a pack a day) I have come to the conclusion that this gum lasts longer than any other. It’s science.

2. Researching my next vacation. So Kayak has been my BFF all week.

3. Janetha from meals and Moves. I typically get asked what are my favorite blogs and hate to name names because I’m fickle. But, meals & Moves is one of my top 5 and I credit report Janetha with showing me the power of protein!

4. talking too LOUD! I feel especially shout-y the last few days. Random.

5. and this is my favorite piece of swag from Blogher! and it came with a full sized ‘plant’ if you know what I imply

I have a long run scheduled for tomorrow and am kinda looking forward to it. Finally! Last marathon training session I looked forward to all my runs, but this session I’ve been dreading them. I’m going to focus on staying positive tomorrow and pushing through.

Hello! Today’s RER Podcast answers some of the questions I received after the pile on the Miles Challenge. I put out a survey for your feedback and future needs. There was a section for questions too! So today I’m answering 5 of your running, eating and social media questions.

This episode is a Q&A and packed with very helpful suggestions and guidance including: 22 things to do when you are injured or can’t run! and 7 ways to stay healthy while training for a marathon.

If you have any questions for me – send ‘em over! contact information is at the bottom of this post.

1. Question: – The hardest part for me is pushing past my comfort level. I kind of get stuck and I don’t know how to relocation past that. Help!? Is that a question?

Monica: yes the question is… how do I relocation past my comfort level?

First I would identify what stops you to push past your comfort level.

pushing past your comfort level. Do you get frightened or kind of get anxious that your heart rate is enhancing or you’re getting out of breath? To just till feel discouraged when it gets hard like maybe I’m not good at this? Does it just feel unpleasant because you’ve been doing something for so long that when you start to feel like you are being challenged it’s an instinct to kind of pull back because you think maybe you’re doing it wrong? figure it out why can’t push past Camiseta Selección de fútbol de Suiza that will help you fix it.

Choose – Do you want to work on speed or DISTANCE?

Figure out your typical effort level.

And to give you a useful example here’s a little exercise and pushing past your comfort zone during a run… first evaluate what is your typical effort level while running.

On a scale of 1 to 5… 1 = sitting /  2 = walking /  3 = easy run /  4 = race / 5  = running for your life

25% is taking a walk / 50% is an easy run you could maintain  / 75% it is running better / 100% it is as fast as you can run away from a bear.

During your run after warm up in the middle of a ride I would push it up a level for a fartlek run so you’re not really viewing your time but pushing yourself 10 to 25% more. It’s like when you do a spin class and increase the resistance it makes it harder but you’re doing the same thing.

How to do a Fartlek Run podcast

2. Question: What motivates you to keep choosing the blog and social media?

Monica: Well there are two big reasons be the top reason is that I really love it! I really love connecting with everyone. I feel like we have a virtual running group and I get really thrilled when people chime in and say that I motivated them to sign up for a race or they were going to skip their run but seeing a post that I did push them to do it.

The second reason is that this is how I make money – blogging, social media, selfies, strange live videos, la-di-da. things are changing all the time and blogging and social media are very different today compared to when I started and it’s going to be very different a year or two from now! So it is exciting and keeps me on my toes. also – it’s essential to note I have the time because I’m not fitting it in around other work.

I think I’d make it a priority even if it wasn’t my job because I genuinely delight in it!  but if I ever wasn’t motivated I would either push myself to do it or find another job.

Check out the episode on how bloggers make money below. If you’re interested in learning much more about this let me know. feel totally free to ask any questions so I know if you’re just curious about behind-the-scenes or want some suggestions on how to blog, podcast or do social media full time.

How bloggers make money podcast

3. Question: how do I stay healthy while training for marathon?

Monica: I think that you imply how to stay healthy as in-  not get sick or  don’t feel good. I say this all the time but I really  believe it = proper fuel and rest are so important.

If you are running a ton you’re asking a lot of your body and you’re depleting your resources  so you need to give back. restore all those resources both physical and mental that you’re using during marathon training. It’s like changing the oil every 3,000 miles in your car – in addition to adding gas. There are small daily tasks you can do to stay healthy and bigger weekly or monthly things that will help.

How to stay healthy during marathon training:

Make rest and recovery a priority. set aside time for all the things beyond running that are required.

Stay positive.

Treat your body like an athlete.

Eat well. eat enough. eat healthy.

Get proper rest – sleep, naps, taking it easy and similar… get enough sleep at night. Take naps as needed. Opt out of extra exercise if it’ll be too hard on your body.

Take vitamins and supplements as needed. (Always speak with with your doctor on any new diet or exercises.)

Listen to your body. respect what it’s telling you.

4. Question: how do you hold your running post? I tried doing that for my victory photo and about fell over. It’s a lot harder than it looks. LOL

Monica: I have a great suggestion for balancing that works for my running pose and for other balance exercises when you’re on one leg. This question got me thrilled because I do have a secret to this and it’s based on something I learned in cheerleading. Anytime you’re doing something where you’re balancing on one foot you can maintain your balance by imagining you’re being sucked up through a big straw.   When you are one foot you tend to start to wobble one way and then you pull yourself the other direction to balance it out but that’s not the way to fix it. When you start wobbling –  pull straight up like you are being sucked straight up into the sky through a straw.

I love this because it’s it works for the running pose, it works for tree pose in yoga and it kind of works in life. in some cases we start leaning one way too much… For example: If I start to go off the rails and  eat a bunch of junk.  I tend to want to pull myself to the other side and do a cleanse or cut out sugar and carbs and completely Camiseta Ajax do the opposite!! That’s not balance – it’s just throwing yourself in the opposite direction. Correcting your balance implies getting back to the center.

5. Question: I just started back running after losing 50 lbs and injured my foot. how do you stay motivated while injured?

What CAN you do?

22 things to do when you have a running injury or can’t run…

Take up non-impact exercise (if you’re approved by your doctor).

Meal prep and/or improve your diet.

Spend quality time with your people.

Volunteer.

Phone a friend.

Send your family and friends a card or letter in the mail.

Go through and organize old photos or papers.

Go to a museum.

Research the best sushi or other food in your city.

Be a traveler in your town and visit something different each week.

Take a paint and red wine class (I know I need a drink when I can’t run!)

Have a meal or drinks outside and just unwind and people watch.

Write a book?

Read a book! join a book club.

Redecorate.

Organize your closet.

Learn how to make Pad Thai! (Then, invite me over.)

Write a bucket list.

Make a quilt.

Take a new class at the gym.

Learn to play an entire song on the guitar or piano in 8 weeks.

Go through all Run eat Repeat’s instagram and facebook Camiseta Selección de fútbol de Ghana messages and leave funny comments so I see them later and have a laugh. Thanks.

>>>> any other ideas? Leave them in the comments!

Make a list of all the ‘I should…”  or “I’ve always wanted to…” activities.  A pile of papers? Old photos? A museum. send your family or friends a note in the mail. A new person each day.

Carb loading is No Joke

hey there and delighted Tuesday! I’m feeling a little better today, but still have about 3 tons of mucus to flush outta my nose ifyaknowwhatimean. Sorry, that was gross. but it’s grosser for me. (source)

90% of the time I cannot decide on what to have for breakfast (mostly because I love ALL breakfast foods). I think I must just declare this meal my official breakfast and eat it until the end of time (it’s coming Dec ‘12 you know).

I wanted PB toast and an Camiseta Ajax egg sandwich so I made one of the each – open face style! best of both worlds foods.

Last night I spent some quality time with my new Runner’s World. Apparently, carb loading isn’t just fun – it’s science! There is a great post about carb loading sufficiently to help avoid hitting the wall.

The post is called “Fill ‘Er Up” by Dimity McDowell. There was a carb load of info, but here are some of the most helpful bits…

Since you’ll be eating a lot of carbs – fill up on low fiber ones. This kinda goes against a lot of healthy eaters beliefs, but throw the high fiber grains out the window to avoid stomach issues and filling up too fast.

Start carb-loading 2-3 days before the race. It’s not just one pre-race dinner that will fill your tank.

EAT ALL CARBS! Okay, not exactly. But, the post said to switch your diet to 85 to 95% carbs. <- I was shocked at those numbers. Surprised, but ready I joke that I love running for the carb loading, but I do feel a little better that there is legit science behind it. So, I gotta get hold of a snack before I head to work. It’s science. Question: What’s your carb-loading meal or snack Camiseta Liverpool FC of choice?
