My time at the gym began with a 20 run on the treadmill that looked like this:
I blasted by half marathon playlist and really got into it. Thank goodness the treadmills at my gym don’t face people because I was lip synching my heart out like a fool. Sometimes the music just moves ya.
Once I was done on the treadmill, I walked into the weight room to complete an upper body workout that left my arms feeling quite fatigued. I lifted heaver weights than usual and really felt the burn. It was a good one!
Breakfast
Breakfast today was delicious!
While this may look like a typical bowl of overnight oats, it tasted like oatmeal peanut butter cookie dough! I need to measure the ingredients out to share this with you guys because I have a feeling my fellow peanut butter fanatics would enjoy it a lot.
I omitted the Greek yogurt in my typical overnight oats and added peanut butter and a bit of brown sugar to the mix before letting it sit overnight. So good!
I hope you’re having a great Monday!

I’m totally with you on the lip syncing! I’m also guilty of playing the air drums! HA HA

Agree with you as well Jenny. I like to exercise, or run accompanied with music and end up lip syncing! It helps me be in the mood for an additional lap.

My sister was running on the treadmill behind mine and caught me choreographing new Zumba routines (I’m a licensed instructor!) while running! Oh the silly things we do while we run! (Jenny^^ I’m totally guilty of the air drums!)
Thanks for sharing!

Finally! Someone admitted it too! SO glad I’m not alone in this Taylor. 🙂

After reading about your peanut butter oatmeal cookie inspired overnight oats, I knew I had to try them right away. So I decided I would just play around with the amounts myself (patience isn’t really in my nature). I used honey instead of brown sugar because I have a jar of raw honey that I am completely obsessed with at the moment and try to use it in as many things as possible. It was absolutely delicious and a great way to start the morning. Thanks so much for the suggestion.

I lip sync all the time during my runs, but luckily i usually run outside so no one really judges me. Sometimes I dance while I’m running..aka zig zag around and move my upper body. I have zero shame!

I ran this morning at the gym and was so into the music, I was practically fist pumping in the middle of the gym! Those are the best times to run though because I think about the music and not the run mostly. Soooo fun!
