Bad day, gone good?

It was a rather hellacious day at the office. I ended up  being there until 6h30pm, which means I missed my run with the Running Room. BOO! Although I was pretty pissed at the time, I was secretly kind of happy because I was missing 8 hill repeats. Moo ah ahaahaha! 

Upon my return home Andrew, Jersey and I headed out for a "family" run. We did a speedy 4.5k thanks to Andrew setting the pace with his long legs.  A self portrait before commencing was in order. :)


My meals today consisted of:

B- Oatmeal with banana and PB, coffee
L- Ham sammich on WW bread with honey mustard
Snacks: Apple, orange, 3 dark mini lindor eggs, almonds

I didn't feel like making much, so I whipped up my tomato soup pasta with loads of peppers, zuchinni, mushrooms and a melange of whatever pasta we had in the pantry. I topped it with a little old cheddar and had a slice of bread on the side. 

Just when I thought my bad day was pretty good, it got even BETTER! I checked out the lovely Laura's blog only to find out that I won her contest. I NEVER WIN ANYTHING!! 

Now, because I'm so flippin' happy about winning a contest... I think I might run one of my own. I want someone else to have this AMAZING feeling. I'm going  to start brainstorming tonight.

In the meantime... what kind of contests do you all like to see? Anything that screams 'Amy' that you would like to see as a prize?

 Although I've been blogging for a while now, I don't think I'm that unique. :(

That is so great your day turned right around, lucky girl!

congrats on winning! as for something that screams Amy, I say anything that relates to running, if its a John Standon book or running rooms socks, its Amy inspired to me..

hmmmmmm. I still say ANY contests.

I like to give and I like to enter :)

Laura said...

Congrats! I agree with the overall sentiment for a Running theme prize. And Jamie is right - hit up the RR for a donation - they love free publicity.

Congrats! So fun!

Yeah you're a super duper running rockstar, so definitely something running and fitness related.

You are TOO unique! Go away with ya! ;-)

Ooooo Congrats on winning!

You look amazing too!

(I hope I can run 4.5kms someday too - that would mean from here to the home farm....someday....maybe)

Marissa said...

I read your blog because you are a hard core runner so I think your giveaway has to be something running-related. But winning anything is better than not winning so any giveaway is better than no giveaway!

Too bad you had to work late, but kudos to you for still running and making a healthy meal!!

It's finally getting warmer around here, so I am looking forward to working out outside!
