Good morning, blog world! Happy FRIDAY!!! I can almost taste the weekend! I hope your Friday is off to a fantastic start! 
Workout
My morning run was one of my favorite treadmill workouts (for both walking and running): 45-Minute Treadmill Workout. This workout keeps you interested with its ever-changing speeds and inclines, and challenges you with intervals and uphill running. The walking is an excellent workout, too– great for your buns! 
Run stats:
- Distance: 5.11
- Time: 45:05
- Pace: 8:49 min/mile
- Calories: 499
Breakfast
Breakfast was also full of favorites today: oats, granola, banana, Barney Butter, and Dunkin’ Donuts coffee.

Nicknames… hmmm. My friend’s family (affectionately) calls me KT, standing for Kristie Trouble. My roommate calls me Xty (less effort to say than Kristie I guess?). High school calculus teacher called me Mootemeister… high school spanish classmates called me Mootinator, friend from youth group called me Mooter, my friend Danielle made a song about me (we got really bored in classes) where she named me K-Moote (“come on everybody do the K-Moote moo!”). So I have a lot of nicknames I guess. And I’ll answer to them all

Have you ever tried the zoes bars? did you like them? I tried one the other day (peanut butter) and it wasn’t very good. Just wondering if the granola is better?
I love you breakfast in your cute little mug! TGIF!!!

Barney Butter and DD coffee + a good workout – sounds like an excellent morning! My parents have always called me Pumpki, and my husband always calls me “Heather Pie”…except when I’ve gone shopping and spent too much…then it’s just “HEATHER!!!”
@jenna: Yes, I tried the peanut butter one, too. I agree, it was just okay— a little too dry for me. The granola, on the other hand, is AWESOME! Definitely give it a try!
I have many nicknames. Actually Emma Loaf (thank goodness) is not my real name, it is my most hated nickname. My Mom calls me Peewee, my Dad calls me Piggy and my friends call me Casper (I am really pale), Peanut (I have a small head), and Venom.
My nickname was/somtime is KaterGater. I’m not sure if it’s b/c I’m a motor mouth or b/c I eat a lot haha! I wish we had Duncin Donuts here. Well, kinda:P

My nicknames vary depending on who you are. My friends call me Mel, my mom calls me Sis, my grandma calls me Missy (and is the only one who can do it!) and my dad calls me Melvira on occasion ( I still haven’t figured that one out yet!)
Good job on the morning workout!
Since Rose is my middle name, I guess I go by a nickname all the time? Bill also calls me Smooch or Booch, depending on his mood
I think Mal’s nickname for you is so cute!
My nicknames are super boring, just Dani, or Dan.
When I was little everyone called me Dani then around 11 I thought that sounded so babyish so I asked to be called Danielle, then in high school a lot of friends started calling me dani and that’s the name I go by most often (besides at work.)
My name’s Justine but some of my family calls me Justy (hence the screenname I use) or Jus. I have one great uncle who calls me JT. My sister and I call each other skister. That’s about it though. Most people just call me Justine!
Yay for coffee!
Llama is very funny. My Mom calls me Naner short for Nena or Nenaner which is what my brother called me when he was little). My husband calls me babe. The longest nickname was from College when some friends called me “candice queen of the ethopians” or just Queen (this from Acts in the bible). But I absolutely REFUSE to be called Candy, and I always correct people who try and call me that:)
Hahahha Tina eat your Ham!!! Such a great quote!
I get Bridge, Bridgey, B, Biz, B-dubbs, B-money haha!
My full name is Caroline and I love it when my husband calls me Linus. It’s too cute. On occassion, he’ll call me Carol cause he thinks it’s funny … I don’t like that one as much!

Great workout Tina!! As for nicknames, I have quite a few…. most of my friends call me Champ ( not sure why) or bigC even though I am not that big. Other people call me Cor and my dad calls me Cornelius
have a great Friday
zesty
Mmm…I want your oats.
I also did an interval treadmill workout today and thought of your post from yesterday while I did it. Boy did it go by fast that way!
My nickname in college was Money. I played basketball and was er…um, kind of good, well, kind of Money. The point of the story is that so many people called me Money that when we got a transfer student on the team, she actually thought for half the season that my actual name was Money. She finally asked me, “Why did your parents name you ‘Money’?”
I actually kind of miss being Money.
Happy Friday Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini! (had that one before???)
My stepsister calls me Planet…as is Janet Planet!
I think I am going to try that workout this morning!
great treadmill workout – i need to try that one. My family calls me “Laur”, friends and teammates called me “LB” and my boyfriend calls me “Babezilla”.
What a fun random question–my answer is kind of silly. My parents have always called me BooBoo. I don’t know why! Over the years it’s sometimes become just “Boo” which often takes people by surprise!
Your nicknames are cute
Breakfast looks yummy. I wish I liked oatmeal.
I have serveral nicknames… my mom called me Doodlebug (that’s why I chose that as my blog), my dad called me Big Al, my grandmother, sister, and aunt call me Lex, I have serveral from friends… Lexi, Lexiboo, Boo Boo…
