Good morning everyone!
Today I woke up with a busy mind. I think I was actually trying to work some things out while I was still sleeping. Here’s what I’ve been pondering for the past few hours.
1. What races (if any) do I want to run this month?
Originally I thought I would sign up for a 5 miler this weekend but I just never got around to it. Plus it’s $25 and I really need to use any extra money for new sneakers and X-mas shopping.
I also heard of another race this weekend that has no entry fee, you just bring a toy to donate. The race is also a prediction run. This means that you don’t wear a watch or a garmin, you pick your distance 5,8,10 miles and then predict when you will finish. The person who predicts the closest will win! It’s a neat concept but now I need to decide what distance I would choose. (see my poll below)
Lastly, there is a Jingle Ball 5K next weekend that sounds fun, but again it’s $20.
2. Will the Praxis people give me my money back?
I called them again this morning and the lady who I spoke to said she must talk to her supervisor who isn’t in yet. So they will call me back. I worry that they will already rule out my refund before calling me back. But I know I need to think more positively.
3. What do I want to eat for breakfast?
This was kind of easy. Anything that had peanut flour paste involved. I’m obsessed. Sorry.
Somehow I ended up with oats, but regretted it when I remembered I don’t really like oats these days. I think toast would have been yummier.
In the bowl: quick oats cooked in almond milk, peanut flour mixed with almond milk, splenda and cocoa powder. Topped with a banana and a dash of cocoa on top.
What are you pondering this morning??
Also, what distance do you think I should pick if I run the prediction race?

This morning I am pondering what to cook for a fun dinner tomorrow night! It has been on my mind since yesterday!
Oooh fun dinner! How about mexican? Taco bar? Check out my recipes if you want, let me know if I can help with any ideas!
I’m pondering those same things!
The race I wanted to do you need to have sponsors and all that. No way I could pull together all that crap in 2 weeks if I wanted to.
Plus I only ran 2x the whole month of November!
So yeah, I’m pondering if I should run this morning ..
This morning I’m pondering how I’m going to spend my day. I’m on a big cleaning spree, but also need to get in some exercising and I have a test I need to complete. I wish there were a few more hours during the day on my days off.
Hmmm good question! I’m pondering what fun foods I want to incorporate into my weekend meal PLAN. Yes, PLAN.
Five miles would be quick and easy but the times are so close together. 10 miles would be fun and a good workout and predicting your time may be easier I suppose. We had one of these races (an 8k) and my dad was within 2 seconds of his actual time and didn’t even get top 3! AH!
Within 2 seconds?? That’s ridiculous!
