Mighty Nut Review + Giveaway

-
I received Mighty Nut Powdered Peanut Butter product to review via my association with Fit Approach. All opinions are, as always, my own!





Good morning!  You all know I love food.  Peanut butter makes the world go round.  And it would make me go round if I ate it as much as I wanted.  I could seriously open a jar of peanut butter and go to town.  



There are so many calories in peanut butter, it scares me!  BUT, hold on.  Peanut butter has so many other good things about it, you don't want to avoid it.  It's a great protein source...and when you're running all of the mileage, protein is needed.  



This fall has been absolutely, beyond crazy in terms of work, running, kid schedules.  I barely have time to go to the grocery store...therefore meal planning is almost non existent.    Thank goodness for my smoothie breakfasts and lunches...which are super fast, easy and delicious... or I wouldn't have time to eat!  And THAT my lovelies would be bad news! 



With that said, when the kids come home from school, we are all hungry!  We need a quick snack that is going to give us that much needed energy to get back at it...and I've found that perfect snack for us!    


Pumpkin Peanut Butter w/ Apple Slices  


Oh yeah.... my 2 favorite fall flavors with peanut butter.  And you know what?  The kids love it too!!!  

2 scoops of powdered mighty nut
2 tbsp of pumpkin 
1 tsp of stevia 
dash of cinnamon 

Mix all of the ingredients above.  Then slice up an apple or two and enjoy!


And when all else fails... I just add it to my smoothies.  Because, well, that's what I do!  


 You all know I'm obsessed with pumpkin lately...so let's add in pumpkin and mighty nut butter to my normal Arbonne vanilla powder with cashew butter... and see what happens!  



Pardon the creepy dark pic of me....  it's dark when I go to work!  But YUM to my smoothie!!!

The (Wright) Right Socks for ME! + Giveaway

Socks are very important to a runner.   If they rub you the wrong way, it will make for a very uncomfortable run.  Bunching up, toes too cold, too hot, rubbing - all things that can go wrong with a sock.  I'm sure there are some other scenarios I've left out. Thanks to Tom and Kim at WrightSock , I had the chance to try some of their socks out.  Since I wear a size 9 and my size is borderline between a medium and a large, Tom thought it was best for me to try out   both the medium socks and the large socks. I was sent the Running II Double Layer Socks and the Merino TRL Double Layer Socks to try out.  I've never tried out double layer socks before.  Sometimes I have worn two pairs of socks in the winter, but there has been a lot of rubbing which has led to some unpleasant blisters.  Yuck. First up, Running II sock, retail price $12.00. I tried out the medium and large in the quarter sock.   I wore the mediums for my 12 miler with the girls on New Year's Da

Running at night scares used to terrify me.  But, it all comes down to if I want to run I had to get over this fear.  Running in the darkness is my only option if I plan on running Monday through Friday since it’s dark before school and getting dark when I leave school and it’s going to be this way until mid February/March.  I supposed option B would be to rejoin the gym, but I really don’t want to spend the $$ and I don’t really enjoy the treadmill anymore.  So, outside it is! I’ve put a lot of thought into what I need to feel safe to run at night.  First and foremost, I needed some new gear to help me out, which lead me to RoadID for some help in this area. This company is fantastic.  It was founded by Michael and Edward Wimmer, a father/son owned company.  Read the story here .  Last fall, I had purchased my own ShoeID.  I like the simplicity of it and that ease of putting it on any pair of shoes (with laces) as I head out the door.  There is some great comfort knowing t

Tommie Rocks + Giveaway!

 A little over a month ago, Jordan from  Tommie Copper  sent me some Tommie Copper gear to sample.  I nearly peed my pants with excitement when the Tommie package came in the mail.  It was a gorgeous fall afternoon AND I had new gear to try out, so I pushed dinner back and made the executive decision to go for a run immediately.  Have you heard about Tommie Copper ?  This company is known for it’s compression gear that is infused with Copper.  So, why does Tommie use copper in it’s compression gear?  From what I gather, copper has been used medicinally for 1000’s of years.  Apparently copper stimulates the immune system to fight infections, repairs injured tissues and promotes healing.  Do you think if I outfitted myself in TC gear and wore it to school everyday, I would fight off those gross elementary kid germs?  I’m tempted to try that out.  Seriously.   Why do people even wear compression gear?  Do they just like wearing tight clothing? Actually, Tommie’s compression line i
