Recently I became a blogger for Moms Meet! This means I receive products for free to try and share as well as review on my blog. The first sample I received to review was from Light Life Smart Dogs. These are similar to hot dogs except they are completely plant-based, which means not one stitch of meat.… Continue reading Lightlife Smart Dogs Review
I recently ran The Color Run a.k.a the happiest 5k on the planet and it was a blast! I will start off by saying that I ran this race for free (more on that later) and it was held in a much more scenic location than last year - at the Waterfront Downtown! It was also… Continue reading The Color Run (All-Star 5k)
Last month I participated in the inaugural Imperial Beach 5k Beach Run. I was little hesitant to register since it's the organization's first race and I prefer all of the kinks to be worked out before I participate in a race. But they offered a promo code and a military discount so I only paid about… Continue reading Imperial Beach 5k
Last month, I had the opportunity to attend Ashley Horner's Camp Valor Boot Camp here in Coronado. If you have not heard of  Ashley Horner, she is a fitness guru, bodybuilder, competitor, triathlete, ultrarunner...you get the picture. But best of all, she's a mother of three and a military supporter. In addition to all of… Continue reading Ashley Horner – Camp Valor
Earlier this month I participated in the 8th annual Chula Vista Community 5k. The first thing that drew me to this run was that it's held at the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista. How cool is that?! You get to run around a venue where actual Olympic athletes have spent several hours training for… Continue reading Chula Vista Community Fun Run

Last weekend, I participated in the ACT (Autism Care & Treatment) Today! for Military Families 5k/10k in Fiesta Island (Mission Bay). I did the 5k last year and I really like the cause that this event supports, so this race was a must-do this year! This time was a little different, I completed the 10k (my… Continue reading ACT Today! for Military Families 5k/10k
I recently participated in the Margarita 5K in Mission Beach and it was definitely a blast! I used a coupon code for this race so I paid around $28 for this event. Packet pick-up was the day before at Movin Shoes in Pacific Beach. It's a tiny store, so I was in and out pretty fast. Here… Continue reading Margarita 5k
Last month, I ran the Super Run in downtown San Diego. I learned about the run through Living Social so I only paid about $15 for this run. It was advertised as a family friendly fun run with a scenic course along the Marina district and Seaport Village in downtown San Diego. Costumes were encouraged and… Continue reading The Super (Hero) Run

They normally sell out within hours! Caress body wash - Adore Forever - This is a fragrance filled body wash that guarantees… Continue reading Target Beauty Box – March
