Happy Monday! It’s been way too long since I participated in Marvelous in My Monday! Thanks to Katie!

Thanksgiving break is in 2 short weeks! Between now and then, the two big things are a Chem midterm and Spin training next weekend! Over Thanksgiving I’m going to Napa, and will visit my home friends and hopefully my home Crossfit box!
Thanksgiving circa 2009.

Christmas music! It’s not too soon, I promise! I especially love Spanish Christmas music. Yes, it’s a thing. My favorite is “Un Nino Se Llama Jesus,” but there are also Spanish versions of English Christmas songs. Sigh-I miss taking Spanish!

Spin certification class next weekend! I’m beyond excited. Plus, I’m stopping by home for dinner on the way back (it’s 9-6), and I get to be reunited with this guy:

A clean(ish) room and a clean and well stocked fridge! I finally had an ounce of time and now everything is soo much better.

Meal plan dollars. That buy me kombucha. I still have 75 to use in the next 3 weeks of the quarter. That’s about a kombucha a day, if you’re keeping count.

Home cooking. I’m still finishing off the chili my mom brought me last week! So delicious.

A well-earned rest day. As in, I was supposed to run 60 minutes today but I can’t move and every muscle hurts so that’s not happening.Between Crossfit on Friday (deadlifts), and a make up Crossfit workout on my own yesterday (squats and lots of abs), pretty much everything hurts.

What will almost surely be a kick butt running workout tomorrow. Tomorrow has a 30 minute tempo run on the schedule, but I also want to do a timed mile and I missed today’s long run. So I’m planning on combining them all for a timed mile (after a warm up), followed by a jog for a total of 60 minutes of running. I desperately need to do a timed mile, but I’ve been dreading it so much, and dreading doing it early in the morning because I’m way tighter then. But then it finally hit me that if I want to run fast on race day, I need to run fast! So I’m just going to bite the bullet and do it.

New running shoes next week! My old ones have taken my through running and training for 2 halves, and now it’s time for a new pair.

I actually made a meal plan! The last couple weeks I was so swamped with work and lack of sleep that my nutrition was really awful. No Aurora, coffee is not a food group. And 50,000 dates doesn’t count as a meal. I’m ready to get serious about getting faster, and that means sticking to a plan that will fuel my workouts and help me get stronger.

I didn’t fail my Physics midterm! I actually did really well! Yay!

This cake for my dad’s birthday. YUM.
What’s marvelous for you?
Great to hear you did well on your exam! That’s always a good thing 🙂 I’m not Spanish, however my best friend is and would always list to Spanish themed Christmas music. Must agree with you, I love it too.
Have a happy Monday

Thank you! And happy Monday to you too!
It’s not too early for Christmas music! I’m ready! Haha
It’s November-that totally counts!
