The Weekly Blush

Someone says there needs to be more "me" on Iateapie.net, so here's a look back at my weekly internet tracks.

This week on Iateapie.net,  it was all Nutrition Bar Reviews - some all natural, some gluten free & a few sugar free ones too.

The Organic Food Bar One (Chocolate Macaroon Crunch) Review was the lowest rated - the 35% of the daily value from saturated fat might have something to do with that! Next week it's all Beverage Reviews - flavored waters, diet sodas, iced teas - even a few Energy Drink reviews.

Workout Music Playlists at IntheGym.net

In addition to writing food reviews here on Iateapie.net this week, I also posted 2 workout playlists at IntheGym.net, Smacking Lips and Kicking Bricks and the QuarterPounder Workout Playlist.

One of my resolutions at the start of 2010 was to work out more consistently, and I somehow found my groove from September onwards, thanks to my new found love of running in local race events. I participated in 7 races from September to December and here is the 2010 Race Recaps -  I'm a slowly but surely kinda gal. I also ran my first half marathon on New Years Day 2011, and like a proud mama, shared my Hangover Half Marathon Race Recap (Half Mary #1) - I finished in 2:18:55.

Oh - and I've been using Dailymile.com since September to log my workouts - LOVE the community there!

Over on my personal blog (Girlxoxo.com), the Half Marathon Training: Plan Vs Reality, includes a look back at my 1st half training plan and shows my 2nd Half Marathon Training Plan + Baby Beginner Triathlon Swim & Bike Training Program - did I mention my 1st triathlon is in May!!! Here's a look at the gazillion races I have on my "Not Such A Newbie Anymore 2011 Race Schedule" ... yes I know I'm an over-eager beaver with too many races scheduled for the year - 40 to be exact ... I didn't want to count!!! I'll have to cut back - can't see the husband-to-be agreeing to my spending an arm & a leg in race entry fees ... unless some generous company wants to sponsor me - I need it all - wetsuit, road bike, cold weather running gear, compression socks, gels ... and whatever else the cool kids are into!

And if this week in review is not long enough for yah - here are a few links that caught my eye over the past week or so:

Finally, for you runners out there - anyone else like running on the treadmill?! I feel a little lonely on the internet because all I see is people hating on the "dreadmill" - and I run on it 90% of the time ... okay, maybe more like 99%. Don't get me wrong - I like running outside - weather permitting - but it's winter here and I'm allergic to cold temperatures - hehe. I have no problems running up to 12 miles on the treadmill - the most I've done so far. With good tunes, or a good football game (War Eagle), I could be on that thing for as long as my legs can carry me. So, if you're a treadmill lover like me - shout it out in the comments! If you're not, tell me what's your favorite form of exercise.
