Whoa, July, where the heck did you go? This month really flew by, which means here are my top 12 favorite posts from July!
Four Years with Mal
As cheesy as it may sound, four years ago today, I married my best friend. Mal rules for a lot of reasons, but my favorite is that we always have so much fun together””whether it’s doing CrossFit, traveling, drinking beers, or simply making up spur-of-the-moment games to play together””we always manage to make each other smile.
Boilermaker Weekend
Missed Part 1? Here it is! On the morning of the Boilermaker 15K, our plan was to leave the house at 6:15 AM to get everyone to the start line on time. I have a whole pre-race routine, so I woke up at 5:15, ate breakfast, got dressed, and did my thing.
Good Times with M & m
Yesterday ruled. I had such a nice time with M & m! Breakfast My morning started with a bowl of Greek yogurt mixed with fresh blueberries and trail mix. After breakfast, I got myself ready to go to CrossFit which included mixing up an amino acid drink to take with me.

Jaws
Hi, guys! Let’s get right to it. Fun day to recap! Breakfast Our friends Erin and Ping (pug) came to visit bright and early yesterday morning. Erin (and Ping) had already eaten breakfast, so Mal made a couple of bagel egg and cheese sandwiches for us.
