good morning - literally!

i woke up ridiculously early for a saturday, as usual: 7:15 am... i used to be annoyed by this, but now i'm actually annoyed if i wake up late! anyway, i had a cup of coffee then set out for a run -- which spontaneously turned into my best ever: TWO MILES STRAIGHT!!! - i originally intended on taking a break between mile 1 and 2, but then i was just so energized that i kept going and ended up running all the way home! SUPER HAPPY because i've never run that much in my entire 22.95 years of existence! i think the spin classes are helping with my cardio endurance: yes! major good sign since the bearthon 5K is in ONE MONTH!

followed up the run with pumpkin oatmeal for breakfast... looks gross because i didn't think to take a picture until halfway through eating it, but whatevs. in the bowl: oatmeal, water, splash of almond milk, half a banana, pumpkin, & cinnamon sugar.... it was super creamy - just needs a little more tweeking, and i think this will become a fav!
