Weekend Wrap-Up: Valentine’s Edition

Thursday’s are for running with the Brentwood Breakfast Club

and for breakfast afterwards…

and big as ‘yo face mugs of coffee!

Couples date night!

Coincidence that we’re posing in front of wine corks on a Thursday?  I think not!

Friday the 13th:

I had a planning meeting for some exciting updates on my blog!  Oh the irony of taking a pen and paper to a blogging meeting.  And, of course another giant coffee.  I like big mugs and I cannot lie!

Guess what happened?!!!  Oiselle tweeted about MY BLOG!!!  I geeked out! @jenchoosesjoy

I prepped for Saturday’s long run:  Nespresso Vertuoline Coffee, Garmin 620, Picky Bar, and Gu.

And ate plenty of carbs!

Saturday: Valentine’s Day!

I paced my Fleet Feet CMM training group for 20 miles!  Yes, I looked ridiculous.  Yes, I had a blast!

We had Valentine’s Day dinner reservations and cancelled them.  Instead we opted to grocery shop and stay home and drink wine:)  Also, we made a Sunday brunch reservation at our favorite restaurant.

Nashville is expecting our biggest “snow storm” in years.  Whole Foods was a mad house!  Why do they sell out of bananas?  Nothing says I love you like Whole Foods before a snow storm.

After the grocery, wine by the fire was a must.  Charlotte looks a little nervous!

Oh, and the piece de resistance….Jason got me the Justin Gaffrey nest painting that I’ve been stalking!!!

Sunday:

Pre-dawn gym time, because brrrr!  LOVING the new Saucony Zealot ISO!

Margot brunch…my love language!  His and hers bellinis and french presses with the yummiest french toast!!

Random note: Today’s sweater makes me feel like a flying squirrel.

 

Alright, we’re all caught up.  I hope you have an incredible Monday!!!!

Peak and Pit of the week?  Peak: My new painting!  Pit: Grocery shopping at Whole Foods.

Tell me about your Valentine’s Day!

What do you buy when a storm is coming? Obviously, Nashville buys bananas.  

At what temperature are you no longer willing to run outside? I try to avoid negative wind chills and hop on the treadmill.
