now onto CUPCAKES!! yum.

i love to run, and i love cupcakes.... so when i found out about the cupcake marathon i obviously wanted in! and i think you still can too...

from march 14th to march 26th you walk/run the cumulative distance of a half marathon or full marathon (you decide) and you can win cupcakes! (and other prizes too but remember, CUPCAKES!!). so yeah, that will be a fun way to get my butt off the couch :)

and finally... BOSTON(!!!) is 6 weeks away :) sarah and i had so much fun cheering everyone on last year, we decided to go again this year, but this time were going to make more of a weekend out of it and also run the B.A.A. 5k. theres a ton of blogger meet ups happening as well, and a red sox game on sunday afternoon to top things off!

and even though im not actually running the boston marathon, i will be running the 5k... so i think that allows me to buy this...

happy running everyone!
