Tasty Tuesday

Well, yet again I was lazy and didn't get up this morning to run. I have gotten into the bad habit of staying up too late with hubby and then I don't want to get out of bed to do what I want/need to do in the mornings before work.

Luckily, it was still super nice when I got home and I was able to hit the road and get 4 good miles in.



About a month ago, I finally made my way to the beloved Negley Park and loved the views you see above. I finally decided it was time to make it back that way both for the wonderfully refreshing views, but also for a good old hill workout. Not my fastest run in my life, but boy did I get out there and get it. It felt great. 

My plan for dinner was really grilled eggplant and the rest was TBD. This was quickly shot down when my eggplant was brown all the way through. Much to my dismay since I JUST bought it Friday. Whatev. 


I came up with this instead, slices of grilled zucchini seasoned with basil/garlic perfect pinch with some meunster cheese on top, some grilled tomatoes and whole grain pasta with the same seasonings, some Parmesan cheese and of course home grown cilantro. It  definitely turned out very deliciously and satisfied my hungry stomach and tired body. Apparently I am also doing the vegetarian thing again for a few days. Whats a girl to when there are so many great veggies in her fridge?? 

What is your favorite summer produce dish?

    I like the idea of using the zucchini! I think my favorite summer produce dish is any type of salsa! I just love fresh, homemade salsas!

Into the woods

 Every week since I updated the look here, I keep telling myself I will write. Somehow life (or sleep) gets in the way and I never sit down to get started on anything.  Early last week, Bryan suggested that we take our long run to the Appalachian Trail and of course I agreed immediately. He knows how much I love running trails, especially the AT, and even more so, starting at Boiling Springs. I have a history with the AT, so running there always feels a little like home when we are able to run there.  Some areas had a little snow Friday and it was evident that the trail was sprinkled with a tiny amount- just enough to feel slightly magical. It's been a super mild winter here in PA, so we get excited every time we see even a flurry of snow.  There was no shortage of fun little fan mushrooms so I could not resist the urge to stop for a few photo ops. It seemed like they were doing some cleanup after the frequent high winds we have had lately, so I did see some areas wi...

2017- a killer year for running

Image
Can you believe that we made it through 2017 and here we are at the start of a new year full of new goals and possibilities? 2017 was a mixed bag for me. Running-wise it was fantastic, but other things not so much at all. Looking back at all of the things I have accomplished and all of the miles I have tackled make me feel nothing short of amazing. Incredible. Strong. BADASS. I wanted to do a quick run down of all the races I did this year. I didn't blog on all of them but I thought it would be fun. I ended up doing 18- YES EIGHTEEN races this year ranging from 1 mile to 100k (62+ miles) with a total of 1540 miles which is my highest mileage yet. So here goes, you ready?? 1.  Squirelly Tail Twail Wun  - 2/26/17, time 2:26:34. This was a super sweet, muddy race. The temperature was cold but not frigid and I had a course PR. I had so much fun and it was a great first race of the year for me. I plan to back in 2018 for year 4. 2.  Chambersburg half - 3/11/17, tim...
