May 4 - Weekly Goals

Hi Everyone!  I'm back in the states and can't wait to share some travel-related posts with you.  I have a whole week planned out with different travel topics next week.  I hope you enjoy!  If you have any specific questions or things you'd like me to talk about, please let me know or send me an email!

For now, I wanted to share one picture from each country.  They were all so beautiful and it's impossible for me to say which was my favorite!

I'm off to the dentist this morning (WHY did I schedule an 8AM appointment to get a cavity re-filled the day I got back?) so I'll leave you with my plan for the week!

Tuesday : Centergy
Wednesday : 40 minute tempo
Thursday : Power + 3 miles
Friday : Spinning
Saturday : 5 miles
Sunday : 10 miles

Hope you all have a great week!

    Two of 3 countries I've been to. I would love to get to Spain one day.

      Spain is incredible! I highly recommend it. I would suggest visiting Mallorca for a beautiful, authentic experience, or staying on the mainland for more variety!

    What AMAZING pictures!!! The "Turning Torso" in Sweden- how have I never heard of that before? What a cool building! And here's to hoping that your week is UPHILL from starting with a filling on a Monday morning. UGH!!

      Thanks Gina! The building was so cool and is actually the tallest building in the Nordic countries!

    I'm so glad you had such a fun journey. The pictures are beautiful. My first glimpse of Demark was the red tiled roofs as we were flying in. Loved it.

Relationship Rules I Broke (and WEDDING PHOTOS!)

Image
Happy Thursday everyone! Today I have a different type of post to share today.  I don't talk about relationships or my dating life much on the blog, but I'm switching it up today!  I got married last Friday, and I thought it would be fun to share some relationship rules that I broke while Dan and I dated. I'll also be sharing some wedding pictures!  We got married at the Butterfly Falls at the Hidden Valley Inn in Belize (more on the Inn in upcoming posts!), and the pictures turned out absolutely amazing.  Since we had a "just the two of us" ceremony, there's not much to talk about the actual wedding.  In lieu of a full post on that, I'll be sharing some background information on our relationship, along with wedding photos and some #ThrowbackThursday pictures.  I hope you enjoy (and I promise- back to running stuff next week!) Guys are immature, so date someone older I've always read in magazines (which, by the way, have the worst datin...

Review- Group Power

Image
Happy Weekend everyone!  Today, I'll be doing a review of another group exercise I do at my gym called Group Power !  Let's get right into it. First off, the description in our program guide is "This 60-minute barbell program strengthens all your major muscles in an inspiring, motivating group environment with simple, athletic movements such as squats, lunges, presses and curls." I don't exactly look like this when I'm curling..but you get the idea! Let me tell you, this is one intense workout!  For the entire 60 minutes, we're constantly moving and lifting and by the end I'm a pool of sweat!  We work out all the major muscle groups - Legs, Chest, Triceps, Biceps, Glutes, Shoulders, and Core with light to moderate weights.  We also use a step to do exercises like chest presses and split squats. For each song, we focus on one muscle group, and do a variety of exercises with lots of repetitions, set to the beat of the music.  The tempo of the ...

Top Five Friday #46

Image
Happy Friday everyone!  Today I have a beefed up Top Five post for you all.  I feel like I've been skimping on these posts lately, so I made sure that this one is packed full of all my favorite products, some recent outfits, new songs, and TV Shows. I've got it all today, and I hope this makes up for the past few weeks!  As I mentioned yesterday, Dan and I finally got our offer accepted on a house, so the past few weeks have been really hectic.  Now that all of our applications and inspections are done, it should (hopefully) be smooth sailing from here!  Wish us luck, and now let's get to the favorites! Empty Products In the past, I've dedicated entire blog posts to reviews on empty products (you can see them here ).  I know that some of you don't like beauty-focused posts, so instead of completely nixing these reviews, I wanted to incorporate them into my favorites! I'm going through lots of products now that I'm on a spending freeze, so I thought...
