Crepes for Breakfast!

I try to eat a warm breakfast at least once a week, more if I'm lucky! Today I woke up way before my alarm but stayed in bed thinking of what to eat for breakfast. Finally just before my alarm was set to go off I go up and started my day. After I got myself up and ready I decided to make Crepes for breakfast!! Whole wheat Crepes to be exact. I don't know why but I'm great at making crepes but I really am terrible at making pancakes. If you are not familiar with the crepe it is a very thin pancake. You can top your crepe however you like. Today my choice of topping was unsweetened apple sauce with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

After I top the crepe I simple roll it up and then eat it up! My all time favorite way to enjoy a crepe is when it's topped with homemade dulce de Leche! For lunch today Leona will be having a crepe topped with Peanut Butter. Ok enough about ways to eat them. Here is the recipe so you can start making them yourself.

I did it, it's over and I feel fine!

Sunday was an amazing day that I will always remember! The week leading up to race was a rainy mess. We had threats of a hurricane hitting the coast and we were preparing for the worst. My biggest fear was that weather was going to cause the race to be canceled. The show went on and we had no rain on race day. The temps were cool and the sky was overcast as we pulled up to the race. The Blues Cruise 50K Trail Run accepts 400 runners, the event had nearly reached its capacity as the runners were gathering around the Day Use Pavilion at Blue Marsh anxiously awaiting the 8:30 AM start. I felt great. I was confident in my training but still a little nervous about running my longest distance to date. My goal for the day was to finish. My desired time for the race changed a number of times from when I first signed up for the event. My unrealistic expectation were dismissed while training when I realized how slow my pace got the further I was running on the trails. I was so grateful

50 Miles of Bliss!

I can not possibly put into words the exact feelings I had about crossing the finish line of the NorthFace Endurance Challenge in DC over the weekend. I trained long and hard for this event. I doubted myself over and over again during the weeks leading up to 4/28/18 but knew I had to give it a go. Driving down to DC the night before the race with my husband and friends I started to feel excited but my nerves were still high. I was thrilled that my husband and Kelly came down to support Miki and I as we attempted another 50 miler. Lets back track for a moment. In 2016 I trained for a 50 mile event that had a 14 hour cut off. The race was a total wash. It rained the entire week before the race and then the whole duration of the event. The trail conditions were so poor that it made running extremely difficult for me. I spent hours and hours walking a sliding in the mud. My attitude was terrible. I had such high hopes for that event and they were crushed by poor weather. I c
