So, did I live up to the name I selected for my Georgia Half Marathon bib?

The Georgia Half Marathon Expo + Pre-Race Thoughts.
After an hour of hot yoga at Ember Hot Yoga‘s Open House to stretch everything out one last time, Mom and I hit the Publix Georgia Half Marathon Expo to pick up our race packet (and free swag, duh).
As hard as it was to pass all the vendors at first, we headed straight towards the back of the expo to pickup our race packets. Luckily, packet pickup was a breeze! There was no line and the volunteers were very friendly, even when I asked them what the hell a streaker was. The first order of business after getting our gear…
Row, Row, Row.
With my running scaled back over the past few weeks and the half marathon looming on the horizon, I’ve been trying to mix up my workouts; Saturday morning I decided to test out my first group rowing class at Rowbot Fitness.
Friday Favorites.
After traveling the past two weekends, I am selfishly looking forward to having this weekend to myself. My husband is out of town, so I have big plans of celebrating the arrival of Friday (piano bar with coworkers), working on my fitness (trying out a local rowing gym and taking a community hot yoga class on Saturday), and just plain relaxing (bubble baths & at-home mani-pedi).
- So proud of my adopted homestate of Mississippi for doing big things, y’all. Hotty Toddy.
- In celebration of International Women’s Day today, National Geographic compiled a few inspiring photos and quotes from female explorers. Work it, ladies!
- I still struggle with calling myself a runner because, quite frankly, I’m not particularly fast and I still take walking breaks. That said, thank you Ali for this little boost of encouragement.
- The forecast for next weekend’s Georgia Half Marathon? 71 and sunny. Oh hey, spring. So very nice to see you.
- Nothing does my wonky hips justice quite like this baby picture of me in my body cast with my fierce grandmother. Enjoy!
Every Day the 14th.
As far as holidays go, I am kind of indifferent to ole Valentine’s Day; I don’t hate it, but it’s not my favorite. For our fourth Valentine’s together, Mitch and I have big plans…to stay in.
