Crosswalks, Tunnels, & Apple Stickers

Kevin is one of those people who thinks that if you keep pressing the button, the little white walk symbol will appear faster. So cute.

Kevin almost got run over by that biker while trying to snap this photo. You’d be surprised how often taking photos as a life-and-death situation. I’m almost constantly getting run over because I start backing up in front of a restaurant to get a better photo. :)

Thought you might enjoy a close-up. That’s me trying to hold my breath to through the tunnel, but Kevin was too slow taking pictures so I was practically turning purple!

Good news! It appears the latest Garmin software update has finally solved the problem for good. I’m sooooooooooooooooo happy! There’s nothing I love more than nerding it up and looking at all the little graphs.

There’s our elevation for last night’s 5 mile run. Do you see what I’m complaining about? Every run we take starting from our apartment ends in misery!! We did end up managing at 8:14 pace – pretty good for my second run of the day. I was tired and wanted to run 10′s, but Kevin was pushing my buttons so I retaliated with a punishing pace! I will say he rocked the last hill. I high fived him.

We both tried to do a muscle pose, but it turns that doesn’t work too well in a duo self-portrait so I let Kevin steal the spotlight to soak in the glory of his excellent hill climb.

Does this make you nervous to eat out of my kitchen? Kevin found a litttttttle apple sticker hiding in his apple crisp. That didn’t stop him from eating the entire 9×9 pan. I thought it turned out gross. Looked like mushy oatmeal because I didn’t have enough apples, and I didn’t reduce the crisp component. But Kevin loved it!

Kevin, now that’s I’m posting this in my blog we’re committed! You don’t want to make me look dumb in front of my fans, right?

Our first trail race is going to the Somebrero Trail Run on September 24! We’ve agreed to not really try to “race.” We’re going to run smart. I’m extremely clumsy, and I prefer not to skin my little baby knees. I think this calls for some new shoes… :) I just chose this one for the title. Silly Spanish gets me every time. Plus there is a somebero joke that I can’t begin to explain. If you need to know, I’ll get you in touch with a nice young man named Raymundo. Haha.

Also it doesn’t hurt that there will be pancakes and coffee at the finish line. :)

What’s your workout today? Get out there and do it!!! I’ll probably do something little this afternoon. But I stayed up late last night watch videos about speed workouts, and I’m all excited about ladder workouts and mile repeats. So I think we’ll hit the nearby track for a little torture when Kevin gets off work tonight!!! At least go for a walk. It’s a beautiful fall day. Brisk walk. :)

sticker is the first thing I can remember…

  3. I had a shoot in that tunnel last year.

    • Did it turn out as well as mine? :)

  4. I’m going swimming tonight in the most amazing pool ever in Maui!

    • You better be taking LOTS of pictures. Want to do a guest post!?!?!

  5. The sombrero joke is my favorite bc we never have been able to see the humor in it!

    • And yet somehow I still giggle every time I think about it or hear the word!! :)

  6. Do you ever actually run? I mean I think all you do is take pictures. Maybe sprinkle a little water on yourselves so that you LOOK like you ran? :) I took the dog for a long walk this morning. That was my work out. Oh yeah, and cleaning house. That is a torturous workout!

    • Lol. You make an excellent point. I try to take pictures at stoplights. Lol. But can’t resist the occasional stop for an awesome shot!! Usually my runs with Kevin are my “easy runs” so I don’t take them too seriously. Haha.
