Tonight I did a four mile run along the Mississippi in Saint Paul. It felt great! The sun had just set and the path was well lit, winding through a lovely little neighborhood.
It's tough to squeeze in a run while finishing up final projects and trying to avoid the common cold but I'm so glad I did.
Cheers to this last push before the holidays!

I'm back!
Hiiii, I'm back! This is going to be a quick post but I just wanted to write to say I've got some new goals and some big life changes that have happened since I last wrote.
1. Welp, I'm no longer vegan. I just love ice cream too much and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. A change that stuck with me from my vegan stint, however, is that I don't eat dairy/eggs at home (i.e. they're no longer part of my grocery repertoire) and I'm really happy with this and think it's a positive change. And I can still go to Culver's once in a while and feel like that was an awesome choice.
2. We moved! To Milwaukee!
3. I got a full time job!
4. I'm in grad school!
5. I'M SO BUSY SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO BREATHE.
6. I finally, finally, finally, fully recovered from my stress fracture and running and dancing and jumping is fun again!
So, anyway, the focus of this blog is going to change a little. Less focus on the vegan aspect, obviously (though I am trying to hold myself accountable for not eating all the left over Dominos from work, ha). More focus on running. I want to do a half-marathon in August and that's my goal now and I want to use this blog to hold myself accountable and puzzle through any challenges that may come my way.
Betsy and I did a 5K race on Thanksgiving and that went surprisingly well! I ran two miles yesterday and that was my first "training" run.
