Snow Day Randomness (Challenges, Smoothies, Running Form, and Virtual Races)

I had yet ANOTHER snow day today!!  I’m so ready for Spring!! 43 days left!!  All I did was lounge around in my PJs, eat a huge bowl of Ice Cream, and work on some blog posts… In other words, my day was boring! ha!  I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again… I NEED routine in my life!!! So I thought I’d bring you some fun Snow Day Randomness!!  You’re welcome! ;)

Has anyone tried these??  I make my own delicious smoothies at home but I feel like these would be fun for traveling or on the go… If you’ve tried these what do you think?

 

Random #3:  Found This on pinterest Today

Since I’m recovering from an injury and getting slowly back into running I decided I need to work on my form… Anyone else trying to work on your form?? 

 

Random #4:  Virtual Races

What do you think about Virtual Races?  Do you love them? Hate them?
Would you participate if you had to pay?  Only if something else is involved like a giveaway or medal?
What was your favorite virtual race and what made it your favorite?

I’m asking because I’m thinking about holding one to raise money for my seemingly out of reach Dream for 2014!


Did you get snowed in today?
Do you get Snow Days at work?
What’s a random from your day or week?

  1. Living in South Africa I've obviously never experienced a snow day and will probably never experience one ever :)

  4. I've done a few virtual races before and I'd do another. Just make sure to create a bib and possibly have a prize drawing for those who participated. Might bring more ppl in to it. Oh and I won't put it more then 15-20 bucks, but that's just my opinion take it for what you will lol

    1. Thanks so much for the feedback!! Do you think people would like a handmade medal?

  5. I like virtual races - I enjoy the "bling". My mom and I are an hour apart and she enjoys them too. It's a fun way for us to connect. I like to that the money goes to good charities - I can get some cute medals - and it's a great motivator for me to get moving and lose the weight I need to lose. The giveaways are an awesome perk to it all!
    I can show you tons of pics of my medals (got a little carried away when I learned about them back in September).
