The Hungry Runner Girl: MORE PIZZA:)

MORE PIZZA:)

WOW!!! I was blown away by all of the amazing comments on the Self-Worth post......If you are feeling alone in this struggle or looking for some great ways to improve the way you view yourself PLEASE read the comments. I am learning so much from all of you amazing woman!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spin was still a good time even when I am a complete gimp and can't use any tension or come up out of the saddle. Loud music, other crazy obsessed fitness peeps, sweat and speed sing to my heart and I was able to get in a few good ol' endorphins floating around my blood stream.

Spin Playlist:

Bad Romance by Lady Gaga

Showndown by Black Eyed Peas

Let's Get Crazy by Pitbull

Born this Way by Lady Gaga

Coming Home by P Diddy

ET by Katy Pery (my latest repeat song......pretty sure I listened to this song 15 times in a row on my long run on Saturday)

Dance, Dance by Fall Out Boy

In the Ayer by Flo Rida

Black and Yellow by Whiz Khalifa

In the End by Linkin Park

The Time by Black Eyed Peas

Infinity by Guru Josh Project

On Your Porch by The Format

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Right after spin we met up with my running bestie, Maryann and she took us out on a date to TERRA MIA......yes, once I find a place that I love I go back a trillion times. This place is good plus ginormous tree's smack dab in the middle of the restaurant are cool.

I really took my time getting dressed up, showering and primping my hair....sorry Maryann....next time we go out I promise I will at least make an attempt at hygiene. Thanks again gorgeous girl!!

You would think I wouldn't be as hungry when I am not running but I am just telling myself that all of these muscle repairs take A LOT of calories:) Don't mind if I do eat like a 14 year old growing boy.

Maryann and I split the Smoked Salmon Pasta and a glorious pizza with artichoke, tomatoes, mushrooms and eggplants. Seriously, heaven. I love their crusts because thin crusts allow more toppings without getting stuffed too fast:)

Billy's calzone. I may have snuck a bite or 12.....ricotta, salami and marinera. I could live off of this stuff.

How is it already THURSDAY!?!?! Did this week fly by or what! Teaching a spin class this morning and then working on those ABS, BICEPS, DELTOIDS and TRICEPS!!! LOVE YOU ALL!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you sneak bites from your husband/wife/gf/bf/friends/families plates? Do they mind?

-Every meal. I just HAVE to try what they are having too. He doesn't care (at least I don't think he does) until I accidently flinged his knife onto him spilling sauce everywhere. Sorry, honey....forgive me

Do you listen to songs while you are working out that you would never listen to just driving around or sitting at home?

-YES.....Lately I have been listening to country or just super chill music when I am not working out!

Thin crust or Deep Dish?

-For just a cheese pizza: deep dish. Anything with lotts of toppings: thin crust.

Favorite muscle to work when lifting?

-Deltoids.....love 'em.

Thin crust for this girl. (Although Pizza doesn't agree with me since I can't have cheese)

Biceps. I want to be beastly.
At March 17, 2011 at 7:53 AM , ash & diz said...: I have to listen to music when i work out! Lately when I'm just chillin at home or work I've been listening to the christina perri pandora station. Makes me happy. :)

Love thick crust/deep dish on pizza... the more dough, the mo' better! ;)

I love working out my quads, i feel like my legs are the strongest part on my bod. But I'm always so sore after! Lol.

Fyi... i hurt from your spin class x 2. Isolations kill me. And hill climbs. And sprints. And pretty much the whole class. lol.

Can't wait for our yogurtland date again! :) we are addicted!
At March 17, 2011 at 7:56 AM , Lana Bump said...: It's a known fact that food stolen off someone else's plate (especially your hubby's) tastes better. Especially french fries. Yum.
At March 17, 2011 at 7:59 AM , Nicole said...: Haha I listen to music that I think is kind of embarrassingw hen i work out... aka justin bieber and trashy pop songs because they're damn catchy and have a good beat ;)

but let's be hoenst sometimes I listen to them when I'm not working out too... ;)

and i love thin crust pizza all the way. :)
At March 17, 2011 at 8:07 AM , Anonymous said...: AHHH your dinner looks FABULOUS!! funnily enough- i listen to the exact same music regardless of what im doing. but im usually dancing ;)
At March 17, 2011 at 8:08 AM , Erin @ UntilYouTri said...: I steal bites of my husband's food all the time! Also, when I order/eat things that are not great for me, a lot of the time I just eat some of it and then push the rest off on him, hehe;).

When I work out I am all about the upbeat pop music (my latest kick is the Black Eyed Peas radio station on Pandora streaming on my iPhone while I work out). But in the car/at home I like more mellow stuff, too!
At March 17, 2011 at 8:08 AM , Running Ricig said...: I usually don't sneak bites from mike's plate because when we're home we eat the same thing and when we're out he orders meat. I do, however, steal any and every dessert he has. I chased him around the house trying to get girl scout cookies from him the other day. And at weddings I always eat his cake before he even knows it arrived.

I love any kind of pizza, except New Haven style (it's super thin crust and a burnt bottom, it's terrible).

I wish I liked lifting more. My legs are nuts from all of the running, but my arms are like noodles, sad little noodles.

I'm loving your spin mix today!
At March 17, 2011 at 8:10 AM , Jody @ Raising Fin and Fish said...: Just last night my husband and I had popcorn while watching TV. I made him put it in two separate bowls because I always feel like we are fighting to get more popcorn. Well I polished off my bowl in no time. He went into the other room to take a phone call and I quickly stole two handfuls from his bowl...

So yes I guess I do take bites, he just doesn't know it ;)
At March 17, 2011 at 8:11 AM , Molly said...: a) I do not taste things off other people's plates. I don't know why, but I don't do it. And I don't really like people eating off my plate either. No idea why.

b) Thin crust is my favorite. St. Louis style pizza is like a thin flaky/crackery crust- nothing compares :)

c) My running playlist is embarrassing. Gangster rap, cheesy pop, even a little Broadway.
At March 17, 2011 at 8:19 AM , Laura @ Meet Virginia said...: I am loving Katy Perry's ET, too! But listen to this cover of it, so pretty!

At March 17, 2011 at 8:21 AM , Amanda (Eating Up) said...: I love the medium-sized crust. Although deep dish is a nice treat!
At March 17, 2011 at 8:22 AM , Bess@Bess Be Fit said...: I want that creamy pasta and pizza like crazy!!!! I am DEF going to an italian place for dinner saturday night to get my carbs in for my half on sunday!! yay love having that excuse :) I have been praying for your leg to heal up and I know you'll still be amazing and back better than ever!!! I think our bodies just try to tell us to ease up a bit sometimes with the pain and its meant to be, you'll be totally fresh! And dominate BOSTON! I know it!!
At March 17, 2011 at 8:26 AM , Anonymous said...: Have fun teaching spin! I'm so excited for my favorite spin class this afternoon. I always sneak bites, but we're okay with sharing food. We always order a couple of sushi rolls (or a big sushi boat) to share when we go out for sushi.
My workout music is so different than regular music. At home, I listen to more chill music like Dave Matthews, but my running playlists are filled with pop & rap.
At March 17, 2011 at 8:27 AM , Marlo said...: That pizza looks AMAZING!! Infact it all does.. Im hungry now. I dont really snack of peoples plates unless they offer. Then its game on!
At March 17, 2011 at 8:30 AM , Brandi said...: When Chris has food I can try, I always sneak bites. I always say "But honey, I am just tasting for poison bc I want you to be safe!" Good thing he thinks I'm funny!

I put the Dropkick Murphys "I'm shippin up to Boston" on my running playlist to get me pumped for the Shamrock Marathon. But I cant listen to it when I am not running (so LOUD!). The rest of my playlist is bootyshaking pop, dirty south rap, and techno dance music! Weird combo but it works!

Thin Crust all the way!! Yummmmmmmm!!!
At March 17, 2011 at 8:32 AM , Emily said...: I am a chronic bite stealer. Usually before they've even tried it. Last night my boyfriend left his blue cheese bacon burger unattended before starting to eat it...you can guess what happened.

Deep dish. Preferably with stuffed crust. More cheese on/in a pizza is always a win.
At March 17, 2011 at 8:33 AM , Emily said...: Oh, also! I'm ALWAYS still super hungry when I'm injured or taking a few easy days. Muscle repairs definitely require lots of fuel.
At March 17, 2011 at 8:38 AM , Regina said...: I never steal bites from the hubby because he doesn't share food- remember the Friends episode when Joey freaks because his date just orders a salad but then eats his fries, "Joey doesn't share food!!" I always am saying, "Aron doesn't share food!" but now he will share with our little girl- he's such a sucker :)

Thin crust all the way...

I listen to what I usually do, but I can only listen to the rap music I like since I can't play it when the kids are around-

Love working on triceps- don't want any flappers! :)
At March 17, 2011 at 8:41 AM , Dom and Trey said...: Ahhh, Love the format! Nice choice of music to end with.

-Dom
At March 17, 2011 at 8:42 AM , Kimberly said...: That dinner looks delish!

I always have to have a bite of whatever my husband is eating - ice cream, hamburger, soda. It's funny that I expect him to share because I don't share with him.

This weekend, we're going to Chicago so there might be some deep dish in my future. Day-to-day, though, I prefer hand-tossed.
At March 17, 2011 at 8:44 AM , Zaneta @ Runner's Luck said...: yay for workin those muscles girl!! :) This week has gone by fast! 2 more days of work!! ;) lol... love you too! :)
At March 17, 2011 at 8:45 AM , Matty O said...: Hawaiian pizza thin crust. Pepperoni deep dish.

My wife eats 3 bites of her dinner and then I get the whole thing... no need to sneak haha :)

AMAZING pics again, you sure you aren't a photographer?
At March 17, 2011 at 8:52 AM , Coy Martinez said...: I have songs that I listen to while running or biking but i won't listen to them doing anything else so as not to wear them out :)
At March 17, 2011 at 8:57 AM , Rene said...: I listen to very different music when I workout - some hip hop and pop music that I would never listen to otherwise.
The best crust in the world is at Durkin's pizza. It's not deep dish and not thin but perfection. You'll just have to make a trip to Texas to try it.
I love working my triceps. I have a fear of flabby underarms from teachers writing on the chalkboard and ladies leading music at church.
At March 17, 2011 at 8:59 AM , Stephanie said...: All the time! I can't help myself, even if we have the same items on our plates, I have to steal a bite of his.

Not really, I listen to everything.

Thin crust all the way!!!!

Biceps and abs!

At March 17, 2011 at 9:04 AM , Anonymous said...: Glad you enjoyed spin! I also looooveee thin crust pizza-- this place near my house has super thin crust pizza and one variety with VODKA sauce instead of tomato sauce. SO good :)
At March 17, 2011 at 9:09 AM , Anonymous said...: I don't sneak bites but I usually ask. My sister and mom aren't a big fan but my dad will usually let me. :D
At March 17, 2011 at 9:18 AM , Rachelle Wardle said...: Yummy, that food looks delicious and Maryann is great. I tried so hard to keep up with her in the 10K last weekend but just couldn't do it.

I love thin crusted pizza with 1,000+calories worth of toppings on top. :)

My favorite muslce to work is tricepts. Have a great day girl!! Hope you remembered to wear green. :)

P.S. I loved your post on self worth. You are amazing.
At March 17, 2011 at 9:31 AM , Runners Fuel said...: this week did fly by. happy almost friday!!
At March 17, 2011 at 9:31 AM , {will run for margaritas} said...: I'm in desperate need of some new songs - so I really enjoy the playlists - thanks! Also, I'd be happy to take any other suggestions, too. I have a 22 miler on Sunday - it's my longest run and I'm running solo. Yikes.

The pizza looks absolutely delicious. If I don't have pizza at least one/week I go crazy. I love pizza, especially with olives, artichokes and mushrooms!!
At March 17, 2011 at 9:40 AM , Anonymous said...: I may or may not have taken a huge mushroom chunk out of my mom's pasta sauce last night when she was taking a phone call. mmmm
and I will listen to pump it up music when I'm working out (like pitbull) that I probably wouldn't just listen to when I'm chillin' around the house.
depends on the pizza for the crust def. I like GOOD crust though. like, real wheat and such. no crappy white stuff for me!
At March 17, 2011 at 9:41 AM , Mallory said...: That food looks SOOOO good!!!

I usually try a bite of my spouse's food when we're out :)

I have separate music for the car and at work, but some songs do carry over, but not many. I listen to mainly country, unless I'm working out!

I enjoy thin crust pizza... yum!

I like working triceps!
At March 17, 2011 at 9:46 AM , Erin said...: I always make sure my boyfriend is getting fries.... I end up eating about half, but its better than eating a whole order myself, plus his :)
At March 17, 2011 at 9:55 AM , Anonymous said...: I am new to your blog and LOVE, LOVE, LOOOOOOVVVVVEEEEE it!!! I am also new(again) to running and taking a stab at the blogging world. I have a little bit of a leg injury and setback too and was wondering if you can share some of your ab and upper body workout secrets?!? Thanks much, Emily.
At March 17, 2011 at 10:00 AM , Laurel @ Ducks in a Row said...: OOOh - that pizza does look delicious. I make pizza every Friday for my family and I just might have to make myself a slice like this!
At March 17, 2011 at 10:12 AM , Anonymous said...: Your dinner looks so good! I was just thinking of pizza tonight! Yummy! I'm a fan of chewy thin crust, not the flaky burnt kind. Yours looks excellent.

I love sneaking bites off other people's plates (with permission, of course) but splitting is definitely also a great option. I always want to try more than one thing off the menu...like all of it. ;)
At March 17, 2011 at 10:21 AM , Alyssa @ Life of bLyss said...: hit me with that deep dish!

and I'm the same - I eat just as much on my off-days. oops? ;)

hope those legs are feelin' fresh soon!
At March 17, 2011 at 10:22 AM , whatkateiscooking said...: I always eat off everyone's plates! I usually end up eating more of their meal than they do :)
At March 17, 2011 at 10:25 AM , Unknown said...: I like pizza any way I can get it. :) I like to try what other people are having but usually I have chosen the best dish (I have a knack for this) so I prefer my own. :)
At March 17, 2011 at 10:30 AM , Unknown said...: seriously, you sound like me when I had to teach spin the other day. It was from weak glutes and on uneven terrain. I know you will be better in a week! I just know it!! PRAYING!
and yes, I take slivers from other peoples plates all the time, I'm a mooch.
haha.
At March 17, 2011 at 10:43 AM , SupermomE13 said...: I still bites of my hubby's food all the time. He expects it. :) And I am a native New Yorker so I like (LOVE) NY style pizza.

Fun play list! I have a fun game/giveaway on my blog today with my running play list. Come play!

At March 17, 2011 at 10:49 AM , Fifty K said...: I annoy the heck out of my husband with repeating a song. I literally listened to a song for 4 hours straight while cooking, cleaning and chilling out one Saturday a few months ago. Lucky for the hubby, he wasn't home. Maybe it's more like lucky for me because I'm sure he would have killed me if he had to hear one song for 4 hours.

Once in a while I will steal a bite from hubby's plate. If he orders something I wanted but didn't get myself, I have to have some of it.

All my music is for everything! I can listen to all types of music while doing anything: working, cleaning, driving, chilling out.

Thin crust or Deep Dish? Hmmmmmm they are both good but will say Deep Dish because I had a great one while in Chicago last fall.
At March 17, 2011 at 10:56 AM , Unknown said...: Thin crust all the way!!!

I like to work out my butt during weight training, squats hurt so good!!

My poor hubby only gets to eat half his plate cause my one bite turns into trying to take it all!!
At March 17, 2011 at 11:08 AM , chelsey @ clean eating chelsey said...: I don't know how it's already Thursday either!! This week has flown by! I like thin crust the best too! You get more bang for your buck!
At March 17, 2011 at 11:09 AM , Stefanie Mockler said...: I always sneak bites from everyone's plate! I have to get a little taste! ;)

Thin crust all the way--topped with mounds of veggies!
At March 17, 2011 at 11:14 AM , Sabrina @ Radioactive Runner said...: all of that food looks soooo good! This week totally did fly by...but hey it's almost Friday!!

I ALWAYS sneak bites of my hubbies plate... the food tastes so much better for some reason.
At March 17, 2011 at 11:24 AM , Unknown said...: I eat of everyone's plate! I have no shame! My empoyees have learned to eat with an arm wrapped around their plate to guard it from me, but my family has just given up.
At March 17, 2011 at 11:33 AM , Dana said...: I read your self worth post but didn't comment...just wanted to say that I really really enjoy reading your blog. You're so likable, relatable and flipping funny. I don't shower often either :)

I always eat my fiance's food...just one bite I say :) I like to listen to pop or more upbeat music when I work out, but at home I listen to indie folk/rock. My fav workout song currently is Rill Rill by the Sleigh Bells. I love thin crust AND I agree with the delts are my favorite. I love racerback shirts so I got to make sure my shoulders look good!
At March 17, 2011 at 11:47 AM , The McGuire's said...: I ALWAYS try what the Hubster's eating...sometimes he doesn't mind (like when he offers)...other times he glares at me (like when i just help myself!). I bet it annoys him...mainly because i know it annoys me when people do it to my plate (i'm a fat kid and yes i planned on eating every last bite so BACK OFF!).

I've sort of become obsessed with Pandora lately. I listen to the top radio hits...hip hop...rap...country....all of it!

I love working shoulders!!!! Deltoids all the way!!
At March 17, 2011 at 11:48 AM , Anonymous said...: I always take food from Dan. Most of the time he tries to offer first, unless he knows I cant have something.

I like thin crust pizza.

I love working my legs, but my arms seem to develop more.
At March 17, 2011 at 12:22 PM , Monique said...: that playlist PUMPS me up! haha :) And so does that pizza, looks amazing!
At March 17, 2011 at 12:31 PM , Emma (Sweet Tooth Runner) said...: Seriously I am MOVING to Utah so I can come to your rockin' spin classes!!! Seriously they sound like the most FUN THING EVER!!

And it's totally unfair how AWESOME you look after a workout!! SO gorgeous!! And haha I've never even HEARD of deltoids! :P
At March 17, 2011 at 1:03 PM , Christine said...: I never sneak bites, for some reason, although if he offers....

I listen to poppy/dancy stuff when running that I wouldn't listen to normally. I'm a hard rock kinda girl for the most part (there are definite exceptions), but when I run I blast Kanye and Britney.

Deep dish! Love BJ's Pizza!

I don't pick so much at others' plates, but Cooper always gets tastes! :)The life of a dog! And, I love working my guns! :)

Thinking about you and praying. Glad you are listening to the quad.

My favorite muscle to live is my biceps. I be lookin' mean.
At March 17, 2011 at 1:58 PM , Dorry said...: If Billy is eating something I like, I often steal bites! And I've been known to clean his plate. My appetite is bigger than his most of the time. :) I love thin crust pizza. I need serious help in weight training. Thankfully, I have some friends from work who are pros and willing to help me!
At March 17, 2011 at 2:17 PM , RunEatRepeat said...: In the past I would have said deep dish all the way, but I've recently been liking thin crust :)
At March 17, 2011 at 2:32 PM , Anonymous said...: Thin crust all the way!!! Man I love pizza...

My workout music is not music I would relax too at all. It pumps me up and I either want to work out or go dancing with friends :-)
At March 17, 2011 at 3:02 PM , Michelle (The Runner's Plate) said...: I love sharing dishes with others! My husband and I always eat off each others plate when we eat out!

Think crust, thick crust, deep dish. . . it's all good!!

I don't know that I have a favorite muscle group to lift. I enjoy lifting all muscle groups the same--I don't play favorites!! ;)
At March 17, 2011 at 3:10 PM , Maria said...: The boy and I always like to let each other have tastes of our dinners. It makes for a more interesting meal!

And I'm an equal opportunity pizza lover...I love thin and thick crust!
At March 17, 2011 at 3:24 PM , Stefanie D. said...: Because of your last Terra Mia post, I actually tried it for the first time Monday. I tried the Mahi Mahi Penne. YUMMMM. However, I failed to notice the giant tree. How does that happen??

I always sneak a bite of Husband's food. But he never wants mine...I'm not sure what that means.

I love both types of pizza crust. But, I'm pickier when it comes to thin crust. It just can't be too crunchy.
At March 17, 2011 at 6:26 PM , Sarah said...: 1. Oh my goodness, that pizza looks sooo good! Well, the salmon pasta does too, but I looove artichokes and mushrooms on pretty much everything. Thin crust = delicious too. Yum.

2. I LOVE the Format! They are probably my all-time favorite band. So glad you enjoy them too :)

3. I am definitely guilty of eating from my husband's plate. One is just never enough for me, and it also always seems like whatever he orders at restaurants is always better than mine haha. I think sometimes he doesn't like it but he must be getting used to it because sometimes he will offer me bites before I ask!

4. That is awesome that you have been running with Mary Ann! I will have to join y'all sometime!
At March 18, 2011 at 3:20 AM , WM said...: Hey, here's one question from young, 17-old runner girl from Finland :)

How long have you been running, and do you have any experience about achilles tendons probelmas?

I injured them like.., about 5 months ago.
At March 18, 2011 at 6:27 AM , Anonymous said...: Thin, but not crunchy crust (New York style).

That's a really good idea to order two dishes and go halfsies. I'm going to try that next time I go somewhere new. I also steal bites off of my husband's plate regularly and I always have to resist the urge to ask my friends for bites. People get freaked out by that kind of thing, apparently.
At March 18, 2011 at 7:24 AM , Katy said...: My favorite muscle to work while lifting is biceps! Haha, I don't know why, but I love it!!
At March 18, 2011 at 11:18 AM , Tara @ Dashing in Pearls said...: Jonathan and I eat off of each others plates at practically every meal. He's stopped saying "no mushrooms, no tomatoes" and now he just gives them to me :) That's love :)

I was saying yesterday how it's weird for me to hear one of my running songs when I'm driving or something. The beat makes me feel like my feet need to be moving at the same pace!!
At March 18, 2011 at 11:48 AM , Shannon said...: I need to eat that pasta now.
