Does anybody know any tasty protein shakes?

I bought some of the Boost Creamy Strawberry to take with my vitamins and it literally kicks in my gag reflex.

I’m not a big fan of the “health chocolat”e flavor but if there’s one that doesn’t have that gritty dirt taste I’d be open to it.

The Saluki Dawg Jog 5K

Okay you guys do not even KNOW how excited I was to be running a race in my hometown! Both my parents AND my grandparents came out to watch me run which was so SO amazing. Mom even had me a sign made at work haha.

I was worried I wasn’t going to be able to run it because I’d end up getting a job and having to leave before I got a chance, but the Gods smiled upon me. I got the job at the last minute AND was able to run the race! 

Quick Stats

Time: 30:27 (A pretty big PR. I shaved two whole minutes off my best 5K time)
Overall: 97 (of 168) 
Female : 29 (of 80)
Age Group (25-29): 5 (of 12)

You Have A Body

letmesayiloveyou:

You have this amazing body. Whatever its shape, and whatever you’ve done to it, and whatever other people have done to it, it is amazing. I promise,  the size of it, or the colour of it, or what you have, or don’t have, that doesn’t matter because you have a body. And you have a heart. And you are made to think that you’re ordinary. That amazing things don’t happen to people like you.

But I promise, that every day is a fucking miracle. Because you can move, you can breathe and you can feel and you can dream and you can love, and someday you’re gonna to lose all of those things. but you have them today,and that is so good.

I was waiting to run until 4 oclock because that was going to be the warmest part of the day. Now a thunderstorm is rolling through

"‎Our running shoes are really erasers. Every step erases a memory of a past failure. Every mile brings us closer to a clean slate. Each footstrike rubs away a word, a look, or an event that led us to believe that success was beyond our grasp."
