Jen Chooses Joy

The BBC and My Smoothie Addiction

Thursday:

I met up with the Brentwood Breakfast Club to run a hilly 7 mile route.  It was so cold and windy that we hid between our cars until the run started.  We stayed for breakfast at Whole Foods where I opted for a KFC-size bucket of oatmeal!

I went for a sports massage with Robin at Franklin Massage Center.  Afterwards she suggested that I up my foam roller to this new torture device.

Jason flew back in from a work trip just in time to meet up for a sushi dinner.  I can’t seem to get enough avocados!

Happy Friday!

I hit up the gym to lift and took a blurry bike selfie…

It’s so dangerous to have Daily Juice next door to my gym!!  I love the El Tropicado and the shirts are too funny!

And, their chocolate pudding is SO good!

One of the best parts about writing this blog is that my friends give me gifts of “JOY.”  I wore one of my favorite bracelets today from Corrie:)

I met up with an old friend, Julie for lunch today!  She just recently moved back to town.  And at the risk of dating myself, we became friends when she interned for me years ago.  It felt like no time had passed and I had a great time catching up!

I got a new pair of kicks in the mail today from New Balance…love them!

They came with two sets of laces.  Which should I use?

I had the exact same Friday night dinner as last week…butternut squash bisque with grilled focaccia.  It worked really well before last week’s long run.

And of course I celebrated National Frozen Yogurt Day.  Red Velvet Froyo with cookie dough!

We’re all caught up.  Have a great weekend!!

What’s your favorite frozen yogurt flavor?  Toppings?  I always add cookie dough or brownies on top.

What’s your long run for this weekend?  Or are you racing?

Do you eat the same dinner each week before your long run?
