NOLA Weekend

January 26, 2015 | fitness, running, Travel

We had an amazing weekend in New Orleans running the Rock โ€˜n Roll New Orleans half marathon! A fun race, great friends, and could not have asked for better weather. I will have full recaps on the blog later this week, but I just wanted to share a couple of pictures for now. I was so tired when we got home last night the last thing on my mind was writing a lengthy race or weekend recap! Soon though.

Have a great Monday! Today I take Emma Kate for her 4 month shots and checkup. I canโ€™t wait to see how much she has grown (but Iโ€™m not too excited about the shots!)

QOTD: What has been your favorite destination race or โ€œracecationโ€?

    I really want to do a race in New Orleans. Since I’m very slowly making progress from injury, this could go on my list for the next long distance race I do.

    My favorite “racecation” was the Tower of Terror 10-miler in 2013! But I am beginning to think about running my first marathon next year and looking into the RnR series, looks like so much fun!

#ad Who says gift cards canโ€™t be personal? ๐ŸŽโ˜•๏ธ 

This year I wanted to do something special for my coffee-loving friend โ€” something simple but still thoughtful. I grabbed a Starbucks gift card from Walgreens (they seriously have every kind you can think of, and you can even Buy Online, or Pickup In Store ๐Ÿ™Œ). 

Then I added my own touch: a cute Christmas mug, a candy cane, and a little note. Because the best gifts donโ€™t have to be complicated, they just have to show you care. ๐Ÿ’›

#ad For too long, retirement has been painted as โ€œslowing down.โ€ But for me? Itโ€™s the opposite.

I see retirement as the start of bold adventures, family memories, and the freedom to keep moving and exploring โ€” whether thatโ€™s traveling, staying active, or saying yes to new experiences.

โœจIโ€™m protecting my passion 

Because the people I love, the life Iโ€™ve built, and the retirement I want โ€” itโ€™s all part of my lifeโ€™s work. And @Prudential can help protect it.
