Rock ‘n Roll New Orleans Half Race Recap 2015

February 4, 2015 | fitness, injury, Race Recaps, running

This was my 4th time to run Rock 'n Roll New Orleans, and we were so blessed with amazing weather! I know the year before it was muggy and humid, so I was preparing for the worst and was pleasantly surprised! Low of mid 40’s at the start (very windy!) But sunny and high of 65 for the day. Perfect! ...

Once Upon a Spring is happening now at @gaylordopr Once Upon a Spring is happening now at @gaylordoprylandresort! (Ad). 🌸 🐰 

There are tons of spring activities for the kiddos, plus Soundwaves, the indoor waterpark. I wrote a blog post on heatherslookingglass.com with all the details. We had a great time and love visiting this beautiful hotel! 

Have you ever been?

Our favorite things about @thegroveresort Orlando. Our favorite things about @thegroveresort Orlando. 🌴 

1.) The size of the rooms: We had a 2 bedroom unit and it was MASSIVE. So much floor space to spread out and it was amazing! 

2.) Washer and dryer: being able to wash clothes is a game changer for how I pack. So much less stress knowing I can just wash things if I need to.

3) The waterpark: Emma Kate would have been content to spend 3 days here and never leave. There is plenty to do and she had already made friends after the first hour! There are slides, games, a lazy River, a pool, and more. 

4.) The landscaping: We were super impressed with how lush and nice the flowers and trees were here. it really added beauty to the property and was a nice touch!

The weather is warming up, and I am so excited for The weather is warming up, and I am so excited for beautiful outdoor runs! #TeamNike I know running can seem intimidating if you are new at it, so I wanted to share three running tips with you so that you can lace up and reach your running goals!

1.) A good shoe is KEY! I am loving the all NEW @nikerunning Invincible running shoe. It's super supportive without feeling heavy, and I feel like I'm bouncing when I'm running! Very comfortable and how adorable is the pink color? 10/10 recommend if you're looking for a more supportive shoe.

2.) Keep track of your running journey either on your phone in the notes section, in an app (nike also has an app for that ;), or print out a training journal, or even use a basic blank notebook. After every run, write down things like the weather/temperature, how far you ran, what your time was, how you were feeling, and any other details you may want to look back on. It's fun to see later how far you have come!

3.) Make sure someone knows where you will be. For the sake of safety, you should always let a family member or friend know when you are going for a run, where you are running, and when you plan to be back. Send a quick text or leave a note on the kitchen counter, this is an important one!

Have fun! I'm about to lace up my new shoes and head out myself. Tap to Shop and Happy running!

Bobby and I love having a nice yard to enjoy, complete with flowers and some vegetables. Our daughter Emma Kate loves planting seeds and watching things grow, but that means a lot of work on the front end. Thankfully, there are so many options at @walmart to get your lawn and garden looking beautiful! 

We are ready to go with @pennington plant food, potting mix, Hummingbird & Butterfly Garden Wildflower seed mixture, a @flexonhose (50', and SUPER flexible!), and a @Betterhomesandgardens pot and saucer to get us started (knowing full well that I will be back at Walmart buying even more soon!) 
The seed mixture contains over 100,000 flower seeds, and the wildflowers provide a nectar source for hummingbirds and other pollinators. We love having birds in the yard, and our dog loves watching them out the window. The potting mix contains high quality ingredients, and can be used indoors or out. The beautiful white pot is lightweight so it's easy to move, has drainage holes in the bottom and the paint is fade resistant! 

You can buy all of these and more at Walmart to get your lawn and garden ready for spring. Click the link in my profile (click the above photo) to shop! 

Do you like to plant flowers in the spring? What is your favorite?
