It Ends With Pi(e)

March 14, 2026      Leave a Comment

If I was a better social media guru, I would be leaning into this Pi Day with recipes, food reviews, and amazing theming. But I’m tired after a long week, and we will celebrate Kim’s birthday (the Pi) from afar, and pie day here with a Chicago pizza (pie) and Mr. Softee ice cream pie. I won’t even photograph it aesthetically. And that’s how this week ends.

Sunday

  • Cardio: 4.25 miles, walking

I was absolutely wrecked after a whirlwind Friday and Saturday, but Mr. PugRunner asked if I wanted to go walk on the beach, and I will never turn that down. We got in some great miles, and then headed our for breakfast. Were there dolphins? Yup!

He doesn’t enjoy putting in as many miles as I prefer, but I had some dog walks slated for later in the day, so it worked out.

Monday

  • Cardio: 6.43 miles, running

Oh, this felt fabulous. The weather was a little cooler, and it was a nice return from BDR Orlando. I also zipped off to get my nails done. Cherries for spring.

Most importantly, sweet Luna turned six! Mr PugRunner took both pugs on a bit of adventure. They got pup cups and visited our local pet boutique for toys and treats. A and I also brought home chicken nuggets for them. They had a great day.

Tuesday

  • Cardio: 6.8 miles, running

Another day, another good run. I was thrilled to see the sun rise, and I was lucky to get to see some chalk art.

Wednesday

  • Cardio: 7.12 miles, walking

It was a double walk day. First, I did some miles with J and then I met with A and her pup for some more. Ta-da!

From there, I had some errands to run. I needed a clear bag for Friday, and I wanted to look at some patio furniture. The bag was easy; the furniture less so.

Thursday

  • Cardio: 5 miles, walking and running

I had an awful night of sleep. Maybe two hours. I was awake long before my alarm, and figured I would just get some fresh air. It was fine: running turned quickly to walking, and I took a fat nap in the afternoon. That helped immensely and I started to feel a lot better.

Friday

  • Cardio: 1 mile, walking

Sometimes, miles are on the road. Other times, they’re on the golf course. Mr PugRunner and I got out early for a day at The Players, which is the golf tournament, commonly known as the Fifth Major. It’s a huge deal, and we were thrilled to have a beautiful day. The weather was perfect, the golf was fine (I was there for the experience, not the game), and it was good to get out.

Saturday

  • Cardio: 4.09 miles, walking, yardwork (ew)

Since I had a bunch of client visits today, I did set the alarm and get a move on things.

Mr PugRunner decided he wanted to mulch and reseed the yard, so we all got roped into that. I am all about chores, but I loathe yardwork. Fortunately, the morning was pleasant.

We wrapped the day on the couch, except for when I had to go feed some critters. It was nice to have a break.

Thoughts + Goals

Spring Break is here, although it’s not really any kind of a break for me. The good news is I do get to spend most nights at home, and I’m grateful for that.

I plan to get in some more great runs and time at the gym this week, which is always a good goal.

And then maybe I’ll get a little downtime. Since the painters finished the house, suddenly I have so many upgrades and details that feel very important.I hate when that happens.

Drinking in that sunshine for sure! It was a bea Drinking in that sunshine for sure! 

It was a beautiful morning that turned quickly into a beautiful day. Sundays are hard because they are immediately  followed by Mondays, and Mondays are hard.

Lots to catch up on this week! April is chock full of holidays, birthdays, days off, and events, so let’s get to it!

About this morning… I was up and out early to dri About this morning…

I was up and out early to drive to Flagler Beach for the #Missionpossible5k.

It was a small, well organized event, with an easy-to-follow course (the last mile was almost exclusively an ocean view), with great shirts and swag.

I was really pleased with my performance, and even more pleased with this beach sunrise. I’ll share more on the #RunnersRundown on Wednesday, so stay tuned!

Where did you run or race this weekend?

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it. So good Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it.

So good to stretch the legs today. I was super sore after a @runsmartofficial cross training session last night, and needed to just get out there and let the fresh air work its magic.

What are you up to today? I really need to take a moment with my calendar and get some plans locked into place.

Check out those blue skies! I got to sleep in AND Check out those blue skies!

I got to sleep in AND take advantage of some cooler temps. It really didn’t warm up until my last mile and that was just fine.

I feel like this month and next are really just flying by. So much is going on, and I want so badly to enjoy it all, including the crisp, sunny days where we find them!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and some balance and strength work through @runsmartofficial.

Tomorrow will be cooler and more productive for sure!

#running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Happy Monday! I don’t know about you all, but you Happy Monday!

I don’t know about you all, but your girl is TIRED. It is so hard to roll out of bed some mornings. Ugh. 

I managed (finally) and banked six miles in some gross humidity. And now it’s time for some self care and then back to work.

Also. We have somehow acquired a pecan tree? Any tips on the growth and care of this would be greatly appreciated!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Sunday fun day! Just a short walk to start the da Sunday fun day!

Just a short walk to start the day and work out some stiffness. Some days, my ankle just doesn’t want to cooperate 🫤

I have been making graphics and content all day for a client, and now I’m about to do hair and makeup for a little event. Wheee! 

This week is going to be BUSY! There’s a lot of changes to the regular routines (nails, a digital learning day, after school and weekend programming) and I have a race on Saturday and bocce ball on Sunday! 

Who else is ready to dive in?!
