Hey guys! I have finally finished my Dumbo Double Dare Challenge training plan and as promised I am going to share it with you. Now before I go any further, please remember that I am NOT a certified personal trainer, running coach, nutritionist or physician.

As of Monday, I am officially in training for Dumbo. To say that I am excited about it would be an understatement. I am ecstatic, overwhelmed, thrilled and nervous. I feel like I have created a plan that is both aggressive and not too difficult. I tried to follow all of the rules of training but I still doubt myself. I still worry that I will somehow become derailed and not be able to accomplish my goals. Here is my training calendar for the rest of the month of May.

When I set about to create this plan, I knew that I wanted a plan that would incorporate a wide range of workouts. The plan I came up with is 16 weeks long and is roughly passed on a plan from the Runner’s World Smart Coach program. I added in cross training, strength training, core work, stretching and shifted some of the runs around. Cross training and strength training are important for building overall strength as well as improving overall health. Here is a quick break down of the weeks.

Weeks 1 through 5:

• Mondays – Cross Training (XT) + Strength Training (ST)
• Tuesdays – Easy Runs (E) + Core
• Wednesdays – Cross Training (XT) + Strength Training (ST)
• Thursdays – Tempo Runs (T) or Speed Work (S) + Core
• Fridays – Cross Training (XT) + Strength Training (ST)
• Saturdays – REST
• Sundays – Long Runs (L) + Stretching

Weeks 6 through 16:

• Mondays – Cross Training (XT) + Strength Training (ST)
• Tuesdays – Easy Runs (E) + Core
• Wednesdays – Cross Training (XT) + Strength Training (ST)
• Thursdays – Tempo Runs (T) or Speed Work (S) + Core
• Fridays – REST
• Saturdays – Easy Runs (E) + Core
• Sundays – Long Runs (L) + Stretching

My primary goal is to do ALL of my training runs even if I don’t do them on the days planned. In the past, my biggest problem has been sticking to the training plans I create. This time I actually want to follow it all the way through … at least when it comes to the running days.

My secondary goal is to cross train and strength train 2 days a week. The first five weeks have 3 days with those workouts but I will be ok with 2 days. As I mentioned the other day, I really want to get stronger and two to three strength workouts a week will help me get there.

On the weekdays that I run, my goal is to do some additional core work. I haven’t quite figured out those workouts but I will share them once I do. After my long runs, I am going to do some stretching. It will probably be one of my many yoga DVDs. The point is to stay injury free while training for Dumbo and Dopey.

Each week, I will post a recap of how my workouts went. I already do that but now these posts will be focused on how well I am following my training plan. If you want to see my entire training plan, you can click the link below. It is a PDF so you can download it too.

A note about pacing: I am going to be using the suggested paces from Smart Coach. They match where my fitness/running is at now and where I want to be. If you are unsure about what pace to use for any of the runs, I would recommend looking at the McMillan Running Calculator. It is a great tool to give you an idea of the paces you should be hitting on your training runs.

The post My Dumbo Double Dare Training Plan appeared first on Runner's Tales.

Last week was interesting for me. I didn’t really get in the workouts that I had planned nor did I run as much as I wanted to. I did stick with using my pedometer and logging all of my food. It is taking some getting used to again but I am pleased with how it is going. While reading Foodist, I decided that I wanted to make some serious changes in my life. I will be writing a separate posts about those changes but I already hinted at some of them in my book review.

I was hoping to get back into a better workout schedule last week but that didn’t happen. Between my work schedule and my boyfriend’s work schedule, waking up 5:30 AM was just not happening. I am hoping that my work will slow down a little in the next few week’s so I can get back on track.

Last Week’s Workouts:

• Monday, 5/6/2013 – Elliptical + Strength Training
  • Elliptical – 2.36 miles, 27:00 minutes
  • Strength Training – Push Ups (W2D3L1) + NTC Shoulder Ripper
  • Daily Steps – 6,055 (~2.98 miles)

I started with a simple warm up on the elliptical machine. I didn’t push myself too hard. Then I headed over the weight room. I am slowly but surely trying to get through the 100 Push Ups program. After doing one of those workouts, I did a “Get Focused” workout from the Nike Training Club. Since upper body was my focus for today, I chose the Shoulder Ripper workout. Once I was finished with the strength workout, I jumped back on the elliptical machine for a cool down.

• Tuesday, 5/7/203 – Rest
  • Daily Steps – 2,537 (~1.08 miles)

No workout today. My daily step count was a little low because of it.

• Wednesday, 5/8/2013 – Easy Run
  • 3.06 miles, 38:16 minutes, 12:31 min/miles avg. pace
  • Daily Steps – 10,145 (~4.93 miles)

Tonight I decided I needed to go for a run. I had been itching to go run for over a week and it finally boiled over. I left work a little early and headed over to Fit2Run to join in their Wednesday night Fun Run. It wasn’t the run I was hoping for but I felt awesome for getting out there. I needed this run!

• Thursday, 5/9/2013 – Rest
  • Daily Steps – 3,068 (~1.27 miles)

No workout today. It was just one of those days.

• Friday, 5/10/2013 – Rest
  • Daily Steps – 3,565 (~1.47 miles)

No workout today. I seriously hate leaving work at 8 pm on a Friday night.

• Saturday, 5/11/2013 – Strength Training
  • Strength Training – Push Ups (W3D1L1)
  • Daily Steps – 705 (~0.28 miles)

Today I realize that I am a total sloth on the weekends. During a commercial break, I decided to do another of the 100 Push Ups program. It was a little strange at first to be doing a workout while watching television but I didn’t really mind it.

• Sunday, 5/12/2013 – Rest
  • Daily Steps – 1,202 (~0.62 miles)
  • Plank A Day – 1:01.3

Today was my first attempt at meal planning and grocery shopping like at Foodist. Once I get the hang of it, I will write a thorough post on it. I went to the store a little late so I didn’t have very much for meal prepping. Next week, I am going to try and make it to the store earlier. Also, I have decided to try and complete a #plankaday. I was able to hold an forearm plank for a minute today.

How did your workouts go last week? Do you use a pedometer? If so, what is your daily step goal?

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post by Under Armour through FitFluential. I really believe in this campaign so I hope you will continue reading and join me as we redefine #WhatsBeautiful.

What is beautiful? How do you define the beautiful? Attractive? Strong? Confident? Skinny? Perfect hair, teeth, makeup, wardrobe, etc.? Anyone but you?

Growing up, I never thought of myself as beautiful. My definition of the term revolved around the physical attributes that I didn’t have. I also assumed that I wasn’t beautiful if I didn’t have the undivided attention of the boys in my class. My definition was obviously skewed because I wasn’t happy or comfortable with my body. I never imagined that I was beautiful. I was wrong! It has taken more than 25 years but I have finally realized that I am beautiful. Everyone is beautiful in their own special way. We all bring something different and special to this world.

The folks at Under Armour understand this, which is why they created the What’s Beautiful competition. When I heard that I would be working with them through FitFluential, I was beyond thrilled. I first heard about this competition last year (you may remember my feeble attempt) and loved the message. At the time, I didn’t completely understand it. I just wasn’t ready to redefine myself. This year is different. This year I am going to push myself harder than I ever have. This year I want to become the best version of myself.

What’s Beautiful is a competition to redefine the female athlete. Sometimes we all need a little help or a big push to achieve our goals. Sometimes we need a reminder that we are all beautiful. It is more than just a competition with awesome prizes (more on that in a bit). It is about supporting and encouraging others to achieve their goals. It is about redefining #WhatsBeautiful and declaring #IWill to the world!

Here are the details:

1. Go to What’s Beautiful, create an account and declare a goal.
2. Show your journey by completing challenges, uploading photos and videos.
3. Win some awesome prizes! There are weekly swag bags giveaways and a grand prize trip to Costa Rica. The best prize is achieving your goals!

So what are your #whatsbeautiful goals? How will you achieve them?

… and a few other runDisney updates!!

Over the last few weeks, runDisney has really been upping the ante. By now, you already know about the Dumbo Double Dare Challenge and the Dopey Challenge. You are probably also aware that my crazy, running self has decided to take on both of these challenges. With the creation of these challenges, runDisney also started adding the 10K distance to their race weekends. The success of these races has spurred them to add more of them to the other race weekends. (More on that a little later. First let’s see what is in store for the Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend.)

2013 Disneyland Half Marathon Race Medals Revealed

Ever since I registered for the Dumbo Double Dare Challenge, I couldn’t wait to see what the medals would like. The runDisney medals are my favorite medals on my medal hanger. I was hoping to see them at the Expedition Everest expo but they weren’t there. Then yesterday, I started seeing a buzz on Facebook and Twitter that runDisney would be announcing something special on their blog. They certainly did not disappoint!

Besides releasing the medal design, they also confirmed the theme of the 10K and 5K: Alice in Wonderland. As much as I would love to say that I will be earning all four of these awesome medals, I am not. I really like the look of the 10K medal. The Mad Hatter’s Teacup ride at Walt Disney World is one of my dad’s favorite rides and that medal reminds me of it. {Click on the images below to see a close up of the medals.}

Princess Half Weekend: A New Race, A New Challenge, New Medals

A few weeks ago, runDisney announced a few changes to the Princess Half Race Weekend. With registration right around the corner (June 11th), runDisney decided to add a 10K race AND a new race challenge. The Glass Slipper Challenge will include 19.3 miles of running through the parks and three beautifully designed medals.

To be completely honest, I wasn’t sure if I was going to run the Princess Half again next year BUT I am SERIOUSLY considering this challenge. Have I mentioned that I am a total sucker for inaugural runDisney race bling recently?

If that wasn’t enough, the folks at runDisney have created a special Coast to Coast medal for everyone who runs the Tinker Bell Half Marathon in January and the Princess Half Marathon in February. The original Coast to Coast medal features the iconic image of Walt Disney holding hands with Mickey Mouse. It has a blue lanyard. The new version will have a pink overlay and a pink lanyard.

If you are interested in earning this medal, runDisney will be offering a limited number of runners the opportunity to register for both the Princess Half and the Tinker Bell Half on June 11th. Registration will officially open on July 9th for the Tinker Bell Half Marathon Weekend.

So what do you think about the Disneyland race medals? How about the new Coast to Coast?

Registration is currently open for the Tower of Terror 10 Miler, the Wine and Dine Half Marathon and the Walt Disney World Marathon.

Count calories. Eat less and move more. Don’t eat meat. Don’t eat carbs. Don’t eat dairy. Don’t eat wheat. Don’t eat this. Don’t eat that.

These are the mantras of pretty much every major diet plan in our modern culture. These were the sayings that helped me lose more than 50 pounds. Unfortunately, I love food way too much to sacrifice delicious treats for the rest of my life. I also don’t really like diets that tell me I can’t eat something. I usually end up wanting whatever it is I can’t have far more than I ever did before.

A little over a year ago, I reached a weight that I was happy with. I stopped focusing on counting calories and started to enjoy food again. The problem with that is that I have inevitably gained some of the weight back. I don’t want to count calories again because it is such a tedious task that I get bored with it easily. I need a different way to lose the weight and maintain the loss without sacrificing the food I love or counting calories.

Foodist: Using Real Food and Real Science to Lose Weight Without Dieting

When I was asked to review Foodist: Using Real Food and Real Science to Lose Weight Without Dieting by Darya Pino Rose, it couldn’t have come at a better time for me. In the last year, I have really been struggling A LOT with the weight I have gained. However, I don’t want to count calories, restrict the foods I eat or deny myself anything. Restriction diets just aren’t my thing. The idea of never dieting again really intrigued not to mention the notion of losing weight, maintaining the loss and still enjoying food.

In her book, the author proposes that eating real food (a revolutionary idea to many) is the best possible way to lose weight, keep it off and truly enjoy life. She calls this the “healthsyle” and it is custom-tailored to meet individual needs. The book is broken up into three parts: the science behind the “healthstyle”, how to get started on your “healthstyle” journey, and how to deal with the day to day.

So what exactly is a “healthstyle”?

Your healthstyle is a reflection of your cumulative habits, from the food you eat, to how often you exercise, to where you live and the company you keep. (Pg. 32)

After reading the first chapter, I was completely ready to jump off the dieting bandwagon and onto the foodist train. The author did a fabulous job of breaking down the information so that anyone can understand it. She explains why traditional diets don’t work and how to stop relying on willpower. I don’t know about you but whenever I am told that I can’t have something I absolutely must have it at that very moment. When you realize that the diets we have all tried tell us what foods we can’t have, you can start to see why you couldn’t stick to it for very long.

One of the best things about the foodist healthstyle is that nothing is off limits. The idea is choose the best possible option for your personal situation. The author never tells you that can’t have something. Instead, she simply offers reasons why you shouldn’t want to eat certain foods (namely processed foods and those that make health claims) and reasons why you should want to eat other foods (local, seasonal, whole and/or organic foods).

Throughout the book, the author offers simple, easy tips to start improving your health and lose weight. She provides simple recipes that anyone can make and methods for overcoming food aversions. There are also tips and tricks to deal with everyday decisions. She also helps to dispel the notion that everything in a farmer’s market is expensive.

My Personal Thoughts:

I really enjoyed reading Foodist. It was thought provoking and insightful. It also helped to reinforce a lot of the things I already believed about the foods that I was eating. Will I become a foodist? The answer to this question is YES. I want to stop dieting and start living my life again. This book has given me the tools and the knowledge that I needed to live an awesome life. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves food. It will show you ways to fall in love with food all over again.

Ok so last week was not at all the week that I wanted it to be. When I got home from DC, I was really excited to get back to the gym and on a regular workout schedule. Of course, my body had other plans. Apparently, I need to invest in some product to prevent getting sick while traveling and running races. On Tuesday morning, I woke up with an awful head cold. I decided that trying to run, lift weights or sweat in general was not a good idea with a congested head and sore throat.

Last Week’s Workouts:

• Monday, 4/29/2013 – Rest Day (traveling home)
• Tuesday, 4/30/2013 – Rest Day (head cold/sickness)
• Wednesday, 5/1/2013 – Rest Day (head cold/sickness)
• Thursday, 5/2/2013 – Rest Day (head cold/sickness)
• Friday, 5/3/2013 – Walking
  • Walking – 5,838 steps
• Saturday, 5/4/2013 – Easy Run + Walking
  • 1.78 miles, 38:41 minutes, 21:37 min/mile avg. pace
  • Walking – 16,596 steps
• Sunday, 5/5/2013 – Walking
  • Walking – 4,635 steps

After spending most of the week not doing much of anything, I thrilled to be on my way to Walt Disney World on Friday afternoon. My only physical activity for the day was walking around Downtown Disney in search of dinner. I decided that morning that I was going to really focus on moving more during the day so I wore my pedometer all day. I was really disappointed that I didn’t even come close to the recommended 10,000 steps.

On Saturday, my sisters, mother and I participated in runDisney’s first ever Family Edition of Expedition Everest. Our task was to run around the ESPN Wide World of Sports to solve clues. The event was a ton of fun and I will have those recaps posted as soon as possible. We spent the rest of Saturday walking around Epcot and the Magic Kingdom.

On Sunday, my boyfriend and I headed over to one of the outlet malls in Orlando before going home. First we ate breakfast at Kouzzina’s with my family. Even though we didn’t buy anything, we still managed a fair amount of walking.

How did your workouts go last week? When you are sick, do you take time off or power through?

The post Weekly Workouts: April 29, 2013 appeared first on Runner's Tales.

Since I shared my goals for the month of May the other day, I figured that I should go back and see how I did on April’s goals. I already mentioned this but last month really was difficult on many levels. Between the Boston Marathon bombings and a ridiculous project at work, I struggled to find the joy and happiness that life can offer. Thankfully, the month ended on a high note with a mini vacation to Washington, DC. My boyfriend and I don’t get a chance to do things like that very often so it was a wonderful chance for us to get away.

With everything that happened, I found it to be difficult at times to achieve my monthly goals. I succeeded at most of my goals but the ones I really wanted to focus on slipped to the side. May is a new month though and I will hopefully get better at these goals.

My Monthly Goals for April {Revisited}:

1. Get on a consistent workout schedule. C+ … My boyfriend and I are struggling with this one. We hold each other accountable for going to the gym in the morning. However, with the start of the regular baseball season, we have a lot of late nights and don’t always feel like waking up at 5:30. We are working on it though but there is room for improvement.

2. Get on a consistent blogging schedule. C+ … Not so much on this one. I tried to get on a regular schedule but my job got in the way. I have a crazy deadline that has been all consuming at times. I am hoping that my content calendar will help me stay on track for May.

3. Finish creating my Dopey Challenge training plan. A … Yes! I finished my training plan but I still want to talk to a personal trainer before I solidify it. I am hoping to have it ready to share with you guys by this weekend. (My goal is to create a downloadable PDF so you can print it out and put it on your refrigerator.)

4. Spend some quality time with me, myself and I. A+ … When baseball season starts, I spend a lot of nights and weekends alone. In other words, I have the time to do exactly what I want when I want it. I love spending time with my boyfriend but it is also nice to spend time on things that only I like to do. I worked on some background blog stuff that will hopefully be ready very soon.

5. Have fun in DC! A+ … My boyfriend and I had an amazing time in DC. I took a ton of photos, ate delicious foods and ran a great race. My recaps should be ready very soon.

How did you do on your goals for April?

The post My Monthly Goals: April Revisited appeared first on Runner's Tales.

I know I say this every month but time really does fly by … seriously! When I woke up this morning, I couldn’t believe that it was May 1st already.  Last month was hard on so many levels but when a new month starts there is hope of a new beginning. A reason to hope for new changes and refining old habits.

My Monthly Goals for May:

1. Continue working on a consistent blogging schedule. I have made a content calendar for May so I know what I want to post each day. The problem will now be finding the time to write the posts.

2. Follow my Dumbo/Dopey training plan. I am pretty sure that I have finished working out my training plan for the Dopey Challenge. So far, I am not doing very well on this. Even though my legs are feeling much better, I have caught another head cold. I am hoping that it will be gone by the weekend so I can get back to working out regularly again. This goal also goes with my desire to get on a consistent workout schedule.

3. Follow the May Photo A Day prompts. One of my New Year’s Resolutions was to work on a 365 photo project. I have failed miserably at this so far but I really like the prompts this month and I really want to complete just one month this year.

4. Start meal planning. I am reading a really interesting book right now that has inspired to look at my life in a different light. My ultimate goal is lose a few more pounds and get down to my body’s healthy, happy weight. The ideas in this book have really made me think about the food I eat and the activities I do. (I will be posting my review of this book next week.)

5. Enjoy life! For the most part, I love the life that I have. I don’t always enjoy my job but every other aspect of my life makes up for that. I have wonderful friends, a loving boyfriend and a great family. I need to remember that these are the things that matter the most.

What are your goals for May?

The post My Monthly Goals: May appeared first on Runner's Tales.

Hey guys (and gals)! How was your weekend? My boyfriend and I just got back from an amazing weekend in Washington, DC. I am working on my recaps, including my Nike Women’s Half Marathon race recap. It was a truly wonderful experience. I just wanted to stop in a write a quick post about my workouts from last week. There really weren’t a lot of structured workouts and no time at all spent in the gym. Instead, there was a whole of city walking and a few organized runs.

Last Week’s Workouts:

• Monday, 4/22/2013 – Easy Run
  • 3.07 miles, 37:26 minutes, 12:10 min/mile avg. pace
• Tuesday, 4/23/2013 – Rest
• Wednesday, 4/24/2013 – Rest
• Thursday, 4/25/2013 – Rest
• Friday, 4/26/2013 – Walking
• Saturday, 4/27/2013 – Lots of Walking
• Sunday, 4/28/2013 – Nike Women’s Half Marathon + Walking
• • 13.1 miles, 2:53:41 (total time), 13:15 min/mile avg. pace

On Monday evening, I joined a group of runners at a local running store for the #BostonStrongTampa run. It was warm and humid but such an amazing experience. I am so glad I participated in this group run.

On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, my boyfriend and I were exhausted from work so making that 5:30 AM wake-up call was not happening. Since I had a half marathon on Sunday morning, I wasn’t too concerned with going to the gym. I also knew we would doing a lot of walking around over the weekend.

Friday was a travel day for us that involved a lot more walking than I expected. I will have a full recap of our traveling adventures but I am pretty sure we walked at least 3 miles.

On Saturday, we walked … A LOT! When I made our travel plans, I knew that we would be relying on the metro system to get around. Using public transportation meant that we would walking around a lot more than we usually do. We loved exploring the city but by the end of the day I was a little worried about how my legs would feel in the morning.

Sunday was the day! I ran my 10th half marathon! By the way, I still can’t believe that I have run so many races in just over two years of running. The Nike Women’s Half Marathon in DC was such an amazing experience. It certainly wasn’t my fastest half but I am still proud of the race I ran. And the Tiffany necklace is one of the best “medals” I have ever received at the finish line of a race.

How did your workouts go last week? Do you take it easy during a race week? What is the best race you have ever run?

Eating after a good workout is important. Even more important is what you choose to eat. I like to have a simple protein shake or smoothie because it helps my body recover faster and it helps to control the insatiable hunger I have. That means I am always on the lookout for a delicious protein-packed and delicious supplement to enjoy. Enter Designer Whey.

A few weeks ago, I received this awesome box filled with goodies from Designer Whey. It contained traditional protein powders as well as protein bars, pre-made shakes, and protein 2 go powder.

Protein bars that I have tried in the past have always had a strange after taste. I ate them because I figured that is what all protein bars taste like. Nope. That is not the case at all. The Designer Whey protein bars are delicious. As my boyfriend said, these bars taste like a candy bar with rice crisps in them. The bars are naturally flavored and sweetened. They make for a tasty afternoon snack or a quick source of protein post-workout.

Sometimes I am not always in the mood for a protein bar even if they are delicious. The pre-made protein shakes are a quick and easy solution to that dilemma. I have tried other protein shakes but none of them have been exactly what I was looking for. The Designer Whey protein shakes are smooth in texture and had no hints of the typical protein-shake-after-taste. They make for a delicious post-workout, afternoon or mid-morning snack.

When I saw the boxes of Protein 2 Go drink mix, I was intrigued. I have considered bringing a container of protein powder to work so that I can have a quick morning or afternoon snack. Protein shakes help me avoid hunger cravings especially on the days that I work out. These drink mixes are even more convenient than having a container of protein powder. They are pre-measured and mix really well. Plus, they are delicious. The recommended serving is to mix one packet in 12-16 ounces of water. I mixed it in 24 ounces of water and it was perfect for me.

With all of the other yummy products in the box, I had high hopes for the two containers of protein powder in the box. I was not disappointed at all. The powders blended very well and the flavors were amazing. The white chocolate flavor was my favorite. I also loved that the fact that each scoop was only 100 calories.

When I saw the tub of white chocolate protein powder, I knew that I needed to create a delicious smoothie recipe. The first drink I ever tried at Starbucks was the White Chocolate Mocha. I really loved that drink but the calories and sugar didn’t love me. The protein smoothie I came up with is only 285 calories!
