I apologize in advance that the things below may not be healthy or related to running:
1.Food.
I don’t drink soda or snack on junk food but I do enjoy my brunches out with friends and my post-run ice cream!!
2. Wine
Again I don’t drink much or often, but my occasional evening glass of red wine is a relaxing way to end a stressful day.
3. Hair Care
No, I will not let my hair go gray (but no judgment on those who do).
I have my hair cut and colored on a regular basis. And I have no plans of stopping.
4.Nail Care
Like my hair, I always get my nails done on a regular basis…
I wear ANC French so it does last for many many weeks.
5. Matching Clothes
Yes, I’m addicted to having everything I wear match!!
Happy Running! So how you show yourself love? Please share.

It’s Friday so I’m also linking up with bloggers, Me (My First 5K and More), Running With Attitude, Run Laugh Eat Pie, Runs with Pugs, and Zenaida!
So Join in!
And don’t forget to link back to your hostesses and visit some other bloggers.







I see no reason to apologize for any of these! Self care is about taking care of you and I love that it will look different for everyone.

I am all about the regular mani pedis and I would add massage to that list. You know I love my matching outfits 🙂

Girl, I am so with you on the not going gray! I actually only have a few grays in my hair (I think), but as soon as I saw my first one I started coloring my hair. I was doing it myself for a while, but it was starting to look too unnatural. So, professional hair is as natural as I’m going. I love all your ideas.

I did the same. I’ve been doing it for years. And it’s worth every penny.

Ha, I like your opening apology. These are all great things. I like how you enjoy wine and ice cream! We should all have things we do purely because they make us feel good.

I am with you on the ice cream and wine, and hair and nails. I really want to dye my hair silver, but it’s so much upkeep.

Yes. Hair care is a lot of upkeep. But I just can’t stop.

I’m on a gel kick, but otherwise not a mani person. Pedi is a must. I don’t mind the grey and for me (like you, no judging) it is self care. I like it, I don’t give a flying fuck what others think. See also, no makeup. And yes, absolutely on quality time with friends, whether it be running, brunch, etc. You can keep all the wine though

make up? Most of mine expired LOL
Ice cream is a good substitute for wine.

I also color my hair. I don’t know when/if I’ll stop but not for a long time. lol.
Getting regular massages are probably my biggest form of self-care. I just feel so much better after one and that lasts for weeks.
