Thx
Thanks everyone for your comments. The wedding was great, couldn’t have been more perfect. Now that the stress is over I can get back to my regular life and hopefully that will be a lot more running and snowboarding :D
And my life changed forever.
Because this happened.

Dear Laron
You’ve always been a big guy, even for a strong safety in the NFL. BUT GOOD LORD MAN STOP LIFTING WEIGHTS.
Flashback
Flashback Fridays. This is about my junior year in high school I think. I think I weighed about 150lbs hahah
Dear toffee covered peanuts
Stay away from me. I don’t want to eat you but I will in self defense.
Done.
Ok. 423 pushups today. I give up. I feel like if I keep going I’m going to pull a muscle and I need those muscles for sex on my honeymoon. TMI? Deal with it. :P
Ronda
This is Ronda Rousey. She is one bad ass chick. She makes an interesting point here about attitude. I liked it, tell me what you think.

Time to drink my protein shake and eat my almonds and my banana.
Hahah my tumblr friends are the best. I don’t know how many pushups I’m going to do. Why limit myself? I’m going to do as many as I can today and give you a final total. See if you can beat me.
Pushups.
Oh man, I’m going to do so many today. My arms and chest don’t even know the hell that is about to befall upon them. Muwhahahwahhahahahwa.
@almondsofjoy replied to your post: Avocados
I like the taste of carrots and hummus together. Grapes. Oh and raspberries because I like putting them on my finger, drawing faces, and pretending I’m eating a person…
Oh! I agree with all of these things. Almost any kind of fresh berries are the best.
@lostweightgainedlove replied to your post: Avocados
All the nuts!
Oh boy, don’t get me started going on about my nuts again.
Avocados
When I’m at work and I can’t cook avocados are one of my favorite snacks. They are more healthy than some of my other favorite snacks such as French Onion Sun Chips, which are the devil because I can unconsciously eat half a bag if I’m not careful.
What are some of your favorite healthy snacks for when you’re at the office or on the go?

I hope you have a fun honeymoon planned. In any case, hell yeah, married life is excellent after the stress of getting married.
We are doing a little mini-moon for 2 nights 3 days directly from the wedding because we don’t have enough money yet to...
My foot.
It’s not quite healed yet but it’s getting very close. I’m feeling like two days and I’ll be good to run again. Which is great because I need a good run.
Also, I am very excited for my wedding and all that stuff but a part of me just wants to get back to regular life again where I’m not worried about who is bringing what and where I have to be at what time ect ect...
@blissmanifesto replied to your post: Friday Friday Gotta Get Down On Friiidayyyy
Oh it is so exciting and stressful right before the wedding. Enjoy the rollercoaster, dude!
Oh I love rollercoasters! :P
Remeber....
Remember that one time when you saw people running and you were like, “That looks so boring, why would you just run for no reason.”
Lol me neither.
@activealways replied to your post: Friday Friday Gotta Get Down On Friiidayyyy

Pushups.
51 pushups in a row. My new PR. Far from 100 but I’m on my way damn it.
Meewwwaaaaggee.
Applied for our marriage license this morning. Oh crap, it’s coming so fast now. WOooooooooooooooo!
Dear Yahoo.com
On your front page, right in the middle, there is a link called “Eight shortcuts to getting flat abs”. I don’t even have to read it. There is no such thing as a shortcut to get flat abs. Only a proper diet and lifestyle will get you flat abs. There are no shortcuts, just hard work, determination, and education.
Suck it.
Valentines Night
Baked a nice homemade meal for two. Got her some flowers in a vase, her favorite colors purple and white. Rented a movie that she really wanted to watch(me not so much), made two desserts for us to eat afterwards. The night was a success.
P.S. The movie was ‘Larry Crowne’ and it actually turned out to be pretty good, I enjoyed it. Also snuggle time on the couch is always great.
MiCoach
Does anyone have any experience with the Adidas system MiCoach? I’ve used Nike+ before, it’s kind of cool but I am wondering what MiCoach is like.
My nuts
Today while I was at work I took a picture of my nuts.
That’s like a 10lbs bag of Filberts I got for free from one of our customers!
@blissmanifesto replied to your post: Shoes.
I had some Saucony ProGrid Guides, men’s shoes ‘cause i like the room, wore them since I was 185 lbs. Very supportive. I heard the Brooks Beast is good too.
Yes my Mizuno Wave Rider 13s and my Nike Pegasus are great, they have good support and I never had problems...
Strawberry Banana.
At first I was like, “BEST PROTEIN SHAKE FLAVOR EVER!”.
*50 servings later* “Awwwww man, not Strawberry Bananananaaaaaa”.
@beachyrunner replied to your post: Ask me!
Number 31? Movie choices say so much about someone!
Surf’s Up. I love this movie, it’s probably my favorite. I like 99% of every thing that comes out of Disney too. Of course there is a special place in my heart for silly comedies like Dumb and Dumber, Office...
@run-doozer-run replied to your post: Ask me!
#6! What a great question :)
I would be ‘Pacific Blue’. However, ‘Sunglow’ was tempting. Blues, Greens, and Oranges are my favorite colors(hard to pick just one). :)
Ask me!
I thought it might be sort of fun to do one of these questions lists for everyone to get to know me a little more. Toss out some numbers and I’ll answer them!
1. What is your best friends name?
2. What color underwear/boxers wearing now? 3. What are you listening to right now? 4. Whats your favorite number? 5. What was the last thing you ate? 6. If you were a crayon what color would you...
Life.
It’s so good. Thank you all my tumblr friends for sharing your posts with me and listening to the silly things I have to say. :D
Shoes.
I have decided that while my Mizuno Precisions are great shoes they do not give me enough support. Don’t get me wrong, they feel fantastic on my feet but they must be for those little 160lbs guys or something. I can run 3 or 4 mile loops with them on with no problems but when I’m done with 6+ mile runs my feet hurt.
You know that spot where if you feel down the outside of your foot...

@high-heels-soccer-shoes replied to your post: Running tunes.
Ooo I like that music! Completely my style. Thanks for posting as I need to add some new tunes to the iPod. Always great to run to house style music with a good beat.
I have lots and lots more of suggestions if you want them. I listen to music all day at...
Running tunes.
I like all kinds of music, but for running I especially like reggae and progressive house/electro/dubstep. I guess it’s the beat and the positive attitude in much of those songs that does it for me.
Today’s 7 mile run was sponsored by the music of Travis Trax . If you like electro/house/dubstep go download some of his mixes they are pretty good. http://soundcloud.com/travis-trax
Good day for a run
Nice little 7(maybe 7.5ish) mile loop this morning. I have only been running this very hilly 3 mile loop for the last several weeks so this is my first longer(sorta) run for quite awhile. I felt strong the entire way and really pushed it hard the last mile to make sure I was spent by the time I got home.
This is what I look like after I ran really hard.
Anyhow, it’s a beautiful day...
@run-doozer-run replied to your post: The ball was dropped.
Yesterday was my first attempt at crossfit…I had to do “girly” pushups. SO embarassing, but a humbling reminder of how far I have yet to go. You’ll get there, buddy! Keep on rockin’.
Um, I do girl pushups still on the 2nd and 3rd circuit of my Spartacus...
@kalsjourney replied to your post: The ball was dropped.
We all have minor setbacks, the important thing is to shake it off and get going in the right direction again. You will do it!
Thanks. I think you are right. The worst is when you feel you have let yourself down so you just...
@almondsofjoy said: If you don’t keep your word, I’ll shove you into the dryer! You got this.
Haha! I shall be on my best behavior from here on out I promise. Just don’t stick me in the dryer!
The ball was dropped.
Lasagna was cooked at my house yesterday. I had some. I said I would eat pure and clean and I didn’t that day. I’m using this blog as accountability, so this is me putting my $h!t on blast.
In other news I couldn’t do as many pushups as I did last week. I think this week has been in some ways a small step backwards. I need to refocus and continue doing the things I know I...
Spartacus is a lot tougher than I.
New personal record for split jumps. 89 good ones in 60 seconds. Yup, this workout killed me, in fact I am fighting nausea just writing this. Uhhhgggg.
And yes I need to shave really badly. I know, I know.

I LOVE RICE!!!! I live off of rice!!! RICE POWER!!!!!!!!!!
Hahahah, I love rice too! However, I always misjudge how much it takes to make me full, which apparently isn’t very much!

Rice.
I don’t eat it much. When I do I feel all bloated. Damn you rice.
Sneak peak
Here is a sneak peak at the views I get on my runs here in Oregon. I can’t deal with more than a couple miles on the tread mill, maybe this is why. Soon all those fields will be full of delicious smelling hops and grape vines!!
