White House Blog: September 2011
http://whitehouse32.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 29, 2011. The 5K Zoo Run. Is on Saturday. It's supposed to be perfect weather for jogging among lions, tigers, bears, penguins, polar bears, giraffes and monkeys. I've been battling a little plantar fasciitis in my left foot/heel. It's so weird, it doesn't really. The packet pick-up for the Zoo Run was at the New Balance store. I decided to get some new arch supports while I was there. Well, New Balance is pretty proud of their fancy pants arch supports. Find something else to buy.

Shoe Review: Saucony Kinvara | Running in Pigtails
http://www.runninginpigtails.com/2011/06/show-review-saucony-kinvaras
All things fitness, beauty, baby, crafty, and nerdy. Shoe Review: Saucony Kinvara. June 16, 2011. July 21, 2014. So, I really didn’t. A new pair of shoes. I still have the Nike Lunar Glides (the ones I won from Nike. And I have the Nike Vomeros, both of them are still well under 200 miles a piece. Unfortunately, I’m not entirely happy with either shoe. I really miss my Asics Gel Nimbus 9. They were my dream shoes! Enter the Saucony Kinvara. The only downside is that the toebox runs fairly narrow and I go...

All things fitness, beauty, baby, crafty, and nerdy. February 13, 2011. It’s totally unrelated to running or any other type of fitness activity, BUT it will, in all likelihood, spur more exercising on my part…. In the wee hours of Saturday morning, the Boy and I got engaged! Here goes the proposal story :). I looked down expecting to see Soybean up to his usual cute shenanigans. But when I look down, I see what you see in the picture above! Next weekend, the Boy and I will be doing our very first race to...

All things fitness, beauty, baby, crafty, and nerdy. Race Report: Camp Pendleton Mud Run. June 15, 2011. July 21, 2014. For the past couple of years, Raciel, Jo Nisha, and I would talk about doing the Camp Pendleton Mud Run, and for two years we always forgot to sign up until it was too late and the race sold out… which was always only a few hours after registration opened on Jan 1st. But not this year! Jo Nisha managed to sign us up as a team and we spent much of the past 6 months in excited anticipation.

Race Report: Knott’s Coaster Run 5k | Running in Pigtails
http://www.runninginpigtails.com/2011/03/race-report-knotts-coaster-run-5k
All things fitness, beauty, baby, crafty, and nerdy. Race Report: Knott’s Coaster Run 5k. March 30, 2011. March 30, 2011. It’s a good thing the race started late. As we were waiting in the corral, we took an opportunity to snap a pic with Snoopy. Me and P with Snoopy. How cute is he? Before long, the national anthem was being sung. During the last lines, a few heavy rain drops started falling. My thoughts immediately went to Raciel. So, now on to the race! P crossing the finish line. For reals this time!

All things fitness, beauty, baby, crafty, and nerdy. Back on the bandwagon! For reals this time! April 12, 2011. July 22, 2014. After much hemming and hawing and poring over various race calendars and race websites, I finally decided on my half marathon of the year! Drum roll, please…. I really wanted to do a new race, but I was limited by a few restrictions. 8211; I promised myself no more untrained races! 2 Local Races only! 8211; Although the LB half isn’t the most scenic race, other options did...

Racing… sorta | Running in Pigtails
http://www.runninginpigtails.com/2011/03/racing-sorta
All things fitness, beauty, baby, crafty, and nerdy. March 21, 2011. This year is off to a super slow start in the running/racing department. I’ve only logged 1 race in 2011 so far, and it was just a small, local 5k to help break the Fiance into running and racing =) We didn’t actually race. This weekend I’ll be doing the Coaster Run. Which I’ve been calling the Snoopy race because we get this awesomely cute Snoopy medal! I’m also toying around with the idea of doing the OC Half Marathon. New mama, runne...
