Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments. In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun! paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky
You might have been bitten by the running bug if...
- You have more running shoes in your closet than regular shoes.
- You craft your running playlists more carefully than most people craft the seating charts at their wedding.
- You watch Spirit of the Marathon on Netflix...for the 5 million and third time.
image via Amazon.com - You lose hours pinning running gear to Pinterest.
image via Pinterest - You dream about running a 4:25 marathon and immediately upon waking start figuring out how hard you'd have to train to do that.
- You start having dreams about running.
- You spend more time on DailyMile than you do on Facebook.
- You can't stop registering for races.
- You tweet your friends asking which GPS watch is best (or shoes, or socks, or...).
- Your instagram feed is filled with people running races before most people are out of bed on the weekends.
- You're pretty sure you need that cool new pair of kicks. Really, you don't have that many pairs of running shoes...
Starting 9k training. What's a good watch to help me track pace, distance, etc?? GPS? #fitfluential #runchat

I haven't looked at Asics gear in a while. They have some seriously cute stuff, why hadn't I noticed this??

I signed up for one race and am pondering several more (several, like, you know, a million).
Seen on my run... Hooray for Colorado sunshine! |
This weekend I ran outside for the first time in over a year. It was bliss.
It will be a journey back to my pre-baby running state, but it just feels good to be out there doing it. To WANT to do it.
Welcome back running bug, I've missed you.
Have you been bitten by the running bug? What races are on your calendar??
