***This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for entering!***
Greetings from our nation’s capital! 
Despite it being one of the busiest travel days of the year, Ben, his brother and I made it here in record time yesterday, and without a single hiccup. Last night we celebrated Christmas with Ben’s family, and this morning I was up and at ‘em early-style.
Destination: GYM!
After several days of eating, drinking, being merry and bright, I was more than ready to get a good sweat going.
Luckily, Ben’s parent’s have an awesome gym on the rooftop floor of their condo, where the views from the treadmill cannot be beat. I spent some QT with said ‘mill and elliptical this morning, and feel better already!

Signing up for my SECOND Chicago Marathon. Why do something so fun once when you can do it over and over again!
I am training for a few fitness competitions. Sometimes knowing that I am going to have to get on a stage in an itsy bitsy bikini is the ONLY thing that helps me focus!

YOGA and walks with my girls to catch up on the holiday drama.
That’s an amazing view!! I could definitely enjoy working out if I could look at all that.
Just before Christmas, I bought myself a one month fitness center membership (which came with a bunch of perks, including two hours of personal training) to try it out. So far, I love it, and I plan to continue my workouts there and probably check out a few of their classes as well.
I plan to run my first half marathon this year. Training begins January 2!
I am enlisting my roommate and we are going to motivate each other to get to the gym before work! Its extra hard in the winter so having a buddy helps so much!
Eating healthy and hitting the trails on my new bike!!

I bought some work out games for the new kinect I got for christmas.
