HLS and Fake Running

June 11, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Happy Weekend! I hope you have plans to do something fun (and active!) this weekend. Today, Bobby and I are meeting with our TNT group and coach for a kick off party. If you have not checked out our fundraising page, you can see it HERE. Every little bit helps, even just $5.00. Please consider donating to this great cause!

A couple of fun things I wanted to mention that I am super excited about (as if ENOUGH exciting things aren’t going on!) is that I am going to the HEALTHY LIVING SUMMIT! That’s right, after watching all the fun everyone had last year and pouting and wallowing in self pity, I got a ticket for this year’s event in Philly. Yay!

Are you going to HLS? I hope so! I can’t wait to meet everyone! This means YOU!

Next thing, apparently while we were on vacation, a picture of Bobby and I popped up on the front page of Real Estate Weekly…Running! Sad to say, it’s not real. Well, ok now I am confusing myself. In the picture we are REALLY running, but it’s staged….for a photoshoot…for our neighborhood. But still pretty cool!

 

sorry the quality isn’t great, but it’s on newsprint.

Holy heel-striker!!! Granted, we were running downhill and I tend to do that….so hhmmm…just ignore please. But, still pretty cool, right? We are supposed to be on the new neighborhood website, too, which I THOUGHT was going live in May, but it’s not up yet. Will share with you when it does.

I know I said I would alternate between sharing things about the Disney trip and California trip, but let’s face it, not as many people read on a Saturday, so I thought I would save the good stuff Not that this isn’t good stuff, but…ok now I’m rambling. (I had sweet tea at dinner, can you tell?!?)

I am just so excited about HLS, and Running Skirts, and Disney, I just can’t stop thinking about it all and smiling about how blessed I feel right now!

QOTD: Are you going to HLS?

    How fun! You guys look awesome even though you’re fake running?

    What’s this HLS you speak of? Maybe I’ll try to go 😉

    You guys look great! I wouldn’t have even noticed the heel striking if you didn’t point it out.

    That’s cute that you and your man run together. I am just about to head out on my first long run with my man- hopefully it will be picture perfect too!

    I would love to go to HLS but alas, no money for the trip and no sitter for the kids!! Hope you enjoy it though.

    Thought about going to HLS and applied to speak, but I didn’t get accepted. They offered me early registration as consolation, but I didn’t jump on it and missed out because I was at Disney on registration day. It’s very cool that it sold out so fast, though. I’ll just live vicariously through you ;).

      ah bummer! Same thing happened to me 🙂
      If you really want to go, check out the FB page, there are usually people selling tickets!

@thehendersonfl is one of our all time faves (for obvious reasons, look how blue that water is! Look how amazing the drinks look! Look at the huge smiles on our faces!) we always come away feeling so relaxed and refreshed. 🧖‍♀️ 

If you want a luxury hotel feel in Destin Florida, but still something that caters to families (hello kids club!) then this is it! Your search stops here! Drop any questions you may have in the comments and I am happy to answer. 🏖️

If you are doing Disney World, this is an easy clo If you are doing Disney World, this is an easy close by dinner to slip into one of your nights that will have you saying: “why didn’t we come here sooner?!?” (Ad) 🍝 

Simply Capri is just outside the parks and feels like a calm reset from the chaos of the day. Soft lighting, relaxed pace, and an authentic Italian menu where everything feels familiar in the best way. (Their pizza oven was sent over FROM Italy!) 🍕 

Enjoy cocktails on the patio or dessert under the soft lighting after dark. It still feels like part of your vacation, just with a slower rhythm and high quality delicious food. 

Save this reel for a night when you want a break from park food but still want something near by!! 🇮🇹
