First and foremost, the Boston Marathon was this past Monday and what an incredible sight to see. I only wish I could have been there to run, but at least the internet streamed it live so I didn't have to miss it! I still cannot believe an American won the Men's marathon! Way to go MEB!!!! This is pretty freaking awesome, an American has not won since 1983! About time we get it and on the first year anniversary, way to go! Below is the clip of Meb finishing! Gives me chills watching it!
Next on my list to chat about is the unspoken bond with athletes. There was an instance in the marathon where a man was at mile 26 and was starting to collapse. Now, you all know at mile 26 you can see the finish line and to break down is heartbreaking. What you will see in this video below is something amazing and displays the unspoken bond between runners. I couldn't help but tear up at this video, its just incredible.
Well folks that is all the time I have for now, heading to run lucky number 7 in the AM. Wish me luck, I would love to PR this marathon, but if not no big deal, just trying to get in some serious miles. Hoping maybe if I have a more relaxed laid back attitude with this marathon, that good things will happen, and if not at least its going to be gorgeous weather to run in. Gotta think positive. Have a fantastic weekend and see you at the finish line.
I am going to leave you with an oldie but a goodie recipe. It's the notorious BLACK BEAN BROWNIES!!! OMG! These are really good and you cannot tell the difference in taste at all. the only thing you can tell is that they are less in calories and fat! Take a peak at the link below, all the recipes are very similar, just need a can of black beans and a box of brownie mix. If you are feeling like a baker, make the brownie mix from scratch, otherwise a fast alternative is to use brownie mix! Enjoy!Black Bean brownies
