# 1 : The new curling iron my little brother gave me for Christmas.
Mine broke a couple of months back and I’ve missed having bouncy, flowing curls ever since. Took the new barrel for a test run this morning and couldn’t be happier.
Thanks Ben!
#2: This weather
It’s amazing out there right now. I ran 6 miles and wasn’t cold or hot – it was perfect!
#3: Supporting Family
I registered to run the Miami Half Marathon at the end of this month!
My little brother is such an enabler, but I love him anyways. 
I’m taking a mini break from speed training (that sub-4:00 marathon was tough!), so the plan is to run the race with my little brother and push him to a sub-2:00 hr goal. He’s more than got it in him, he just needs someone there showing him the way. 
(p.s. DO NOT follow the Miami Marathon on twitter. Unless you’re looking for an example of how NOT to do social media, then – by all means – please check them out. They annoy me to no end with their constant contact auto-tweets. grrrr)
#4: Carrot Cake Waffle.
Specifically left over Carrot Cake Waffles that you throw in a toaster and top with hot cinnamon apples.
It’s like dessert for breakfast. Love!
#5: Maddie

I’m loving my Green Monster that I’m drinking right now, the fact that it’s a short week for me because I had Monday off, and my spin class participants that put me in an awesome mood this morning. Have a great day Meghann!

Loving pumpkin oats on a lazy morning while my kids watch Dora:)
I’m loving slow breakfasts and watching the lightly-falling snow outside. And drinking tea at regular intervals throughout the day. I can’t get enough!

Ummmm… well I’m trying hard to find something to love this morning…. the weather is AWFUL here in Jacksonville (overcast and cold), I start my classes for the semester in (10!) minutes, and I’m having a bad hair day…. hmmm
Oh, I know something that I am loving…. Disney Half- Marathon on Saturday!
Guess the other stuff isn’t so bad!
Have a great day!!!!

Good post! I’m loving my overnight oats in my new bowl from Anthropologie, the few weeks of freedom I have left until I go back to school, my dog Rose and the fact that I have to go meet my friend at the gym in 20 minutes for a good work-out!

Great list! I loved seeing the sunrise this morning over the river during my morning run.
I’m loving the last little bit of my Candy Cane Lane tea! And I’m loving that I’ve got a lunch date with friends in four short hours.

Man, I haven’t seen a curling iron in ages.
I am loving the fact that my cold feels much better today, I had a very pleasant workout and my coffee turned out extra delicious for no reason at all
I’m loving that I just registered for my 2nd 24 hour bike ride!!

One word: TEA! I was on vacation for the past couple days, and I really missed being able to get a hot cup of tea whenever I wanted.

I’m doing the Miami Marathon, too, and yea, their social media/marketing/PR really sucks. I think I’ve received like 2 emails total, and I’m not even wasting my time following them on Twitter. Kind of a bummer, that race has a lot of potential!

To be honest, I am really loving the fact that I can work out again, after being on crutches for almost 5 weeks due to a torn hip muscle. There is nothing like getting a good sweat session in, I know you can agree Meghann!
I’m loving the banana/chocolate chip pancakes my husband made for me after my 4-mile run. And I’m loving that my hubs has a job interview today in his DREAM industry! Think good thoughts!!!
Im loving leisurely mornings since im still on winter break

This post reminded me that I really need a curling iron! I’m loving my new Chi hair straightener and all of the new binders I just bought to get organized for my 2nd semester of grad school. Such a nerd

I stumbled into your blog when I was checking your tips for the Disney marathon.
Realized a couple of coincidences: My debut in marathons was planned for the Palm Beaches Marathon (your sub-4h one) but I thought I was not ready so I postponed it to the Miami Marathon (which you will be running too – the half I know).
So maybe I will see you there.
Good luck with your new endeavors. Lots of changes in 2011, huh!
I am loving hot baths after long runs and any song by Ke$ha. I’m just being honest:)
