Afternoon of Fresh Air

I hope you have all had a great little Wednesday! Mine has already flown right by, so it seems.

I don’t know if it’s the sunshine, the warmer temperatures, or the fact that winter looks to be officially out of sight, but I am in the best mood today! I’m sure I am borderline annoying, but I just can’t help it. Spring is in the building, y’all.

Or… outside the building. Whatever. You get it.

I took Roadie for a run through the trails before coming in to work at the gym today, and I am definitely still riding that post-run high. It’s so stinking beautiful out!

Roadie had the biggest smile on his face the entire time, too. We walked and ran through an easy 4 and a quarter miles. He’s such a great little running partner!

I wore shorts on this run (hallelujah!), but actually felt a tad too hot with my long-sleeved tech shirt. It might just be time to break out the tees!

We made sure to stop and take a few breaks along way, just like we always do. Roadie kept cracking me up by plopping down on the grass and rolling around like a maniac.

“Look momma, the grass is back!”

He probably tangled his feet in his leash a total of thirty five times, but I just kept letting him do his thing. Smell and roll on, my outdoor loving friend. He’s hilarious and makes my days (and afternoons outside) so much brighter.

I didn’t have much time to doddle when we got back inside. I quickly blended lunch and went upstairs to get ready for work. It had been a hot minute since I made a smoothie and I will have to repeat this one. It was delicious!

Cookies ‘n Cream whey protein, dark chocolate almond milk, 1/2 a frozen banana & ice

I continued to sip on my smoothie as I got ready to leave, and am now coming to you on a break at the gym. We have the back door open again, and I can’t get enough of the weather in the mid-60s today. Spring… please stay forever!

After a long Michigan winter, today was a much needed breath of fresh air. I told you… I’m super annoying talking about it this week. You’ve been warned. Here’s hoping it sticks around for good this time!
