Has anyone realized that it’s March? Geez, 2014 is flying by!! I am so behind on posts. I got caught up in la la land that I failed to maintain my commitment to my blog! Well my friends, I am back!
Let’s travel back in time to Valentines/Presidents Day weekend. My mom came to Dallas to spend the weekend with me and it was much needed. Every so often a girl just needs her mom plus she was bringing me a Valentine’s Day treat soooo….. yay!
Saturday we got up bright and early so that I could participate in the Heart & Sole 5k. The race was at White Rock Lake and started at Winfrey Point. It was a great morning for a race. The sun was out, I was on cloud 9 and I was ready to run. The course started out downhill and like always, I started out faster than I should. I will say though, I did maintain much of that mile 1 pace throughout the course. YAY! This was pretty much an out and back course, super easy except for running back up that hill to cross the finish line, ugh hills!
I finished the race in 34:59. Definitely slower than normal but that’s alright, can’t run a perfect race every time. My speed is definitely picking up and I am able to maintain a faster pace throughout the first two miles. I know I will meet that 29 minute 5k time this year, I feel it in my old bones!!
After the race, I took my mom to Good 2 Go Tacos. She has to be part of the tradition yo (I am still working on my street slang, sounds good right?) We gobbled up some goodness before heading back to my house to clean up for a day of movies and shopping.

Sunday we spent the day resting and cleaning my house. I am telling you, the best mom EVER!
