#crazythoughsgetsfit

If you follow me on Instagram you already know that I've started using it as a place to post my fitness journey. I wasn't posting very much and then I thought, hmm it would be a good place to post obnoxious amounts of fitness crap. I get inspired by seeing/reading about other peoples journeys and to be honest I want you guys to keep me accountable. I'm not on weight watchers or any certain diet I am changing my lifestyle one step at a time. I started the couch to 5k program to get me up and running again (pun intended) because running really helps me lose weight. I'm also taking on 30 day challenges this year to keep me doing something active everyday. It's been almost 2 weeks and I have to say I love it. I've discovered that I love workout apps and getting those little check marks everyday is so addicting. I will post from time to time on the blog about different workout things but if you want to follow my entire journey follow me on Instagram and check out my own personal hash tag #crazythoughsgetsfit.

In other news -- to further inspire my running training I just purchased some new kicks and what will hopefully be a fabulous new bra.

Who doesn't love new workout gear to get inspired by?!

 

What workout apps do you use? I'm always in need of advice so, give it to me below!

A Snowy Sunday

On Saturday night we got a nice little surprise! SNOW! I was so excited for this little Winter treat that we got up early Sunday morning and took Olive out to play and take pictures. She loved it. If you follow me on Instagram you might have already seen a few pictures but here are the ones that I got with the 60D. I just realized my camera needs a name.... maybe Dolly. Yes, I think I like that... Dolly it shall be!

Action shot of her eating the snow. Baby bear loves eating snow.

 

 

 

 

Oh how I love my little model. I'm so glad we got up early before all the footprints ruined the fresh snow. There is nothing I love more than taking Olive out to play. Her little belly gets covered with ice cycles and if there has been several inches of snow she has to literally jump in order to walk. It is by far the cutest thing I have ever seen.

 

Snow just makes everything look magical. The world always seems quieter covered in snow. All you hear is the soft crunch of it under your feet and when you look around everything just seems fresh, crisp, and clean.



Sochi 2014

 

I'd like to take this time to make an announcement.

For the first time in my life I refuse to watch the Olympics. I am DISGUSTED with the choice to have the Olympics in an area of the world that has very public anti-gay laws that you can read all about here and then to put the cherry on top (FOR ME) is when they decided to use 2 captured Orcas for "entertainment" at the opening of the games. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Read about it HERE.

 

Screw you Sochi. Screw you Russia. You won't be on my TV at all.

Not to even mention the stupid amount of money that was spent on these games. 50 BILLION or 5 times the amount Vancouver, BC spent. Just read this article to really get disgusted with the way Putin spends money.

 

What happened to it being about athletic talent? I understand that these athletes work their entire life to make it to the Olympics and I just think it is so sad for this one to be the one they got to go to. If I was an athlete there is no way I would participate here. It would be filled with a sick feeling of disgust if I set foot there. I feel so sorry for all the gay athletes that are having to deal with that very predicament but sorry, I won't be watching.
