Healthy Living Summit 2012: Day 1

August 18, 2012 | fitness, running

;

Hi friends! Yesterday was a whirlwind of a day! I am so tired but having a blast! Ok, so let’s backtrack. My morning started off with a solo run along the river. I decided I probably wasn’t going to get up for the Saturday run, so I decided to take on a few miles on my own. Let me tell you, it was BLISS! Not only was it scenic, but oh my gosh low humidity and temps. I was in HEAVEN!

There was a nice path that went along the water with the road on the other side. There were plenty of other bikers and runners out and about.

There were some nice shady areas as well.

I would love to have a great place like this to run all the time. Love.

After my run I took a quick shower and then it was time for the whole foods mini mingle!

Roomies!

Me and Lynda

Our group walked about 20 minutes to Whole Foods and we grabbed lunch at the salad bar.

Well, I got a turkey sandwich.

Then, we had to walk back because it was registration time! Team healthy Living Blogs, GO!

Bathroom photo fun.

We got everything ready for registration with only a few minor glitches. I was in the swag bag room with Mary and we were in charge of punching holes in people’s name badges and giving them their bags.

That’s not even all the bags.

We had a great time, and I am wiped. I will save the cocktail party for the next post.

Don’t forget, my session on social media trends is at 3:30 EST and people will be live tweeting, using the hashtag #HLSmedia so be sure to join in the fun!

QOTD: What item would you love to see in a swag bag?

    Your run looks like it was amazing. It’s always so nice finding a great place to go on a run when you’re traveling. And it looks like everyone is having a fantastic time at HLS.

    I always like to get things I haven’t tried before in my swag bags. Food samples are always welcome, especially if I get hungry. 🙂

So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 Ju So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 
July 13th happens to be a pretty great day if you ask me. 😜

Today I’m 41. I’m not a fan of odd numbers so I’m not sure yet how I feel about this year. 😆

I will say I am always very reflective on my birthday. I’m grateful for every year God has given me, and know how blessed I am to have even made it to 41. Each day is truly a gift, and I don’t always live or act like it. As someone who is “over the hill,” I find myself wanting to soak it all in and slow it all down more and more, but it just keeps getting faster and faster! 🫣

Here’s to another go around, and hopefully to many, many more. 🥂
