I don't know why, but waking up at 4:45am is SO much easier than waking up at 5:30am for me. I struggle getting out of bed at 5:30, however when my alarm goes off between 4:30-5am, I jump right out of bed! I guess I'm just weird :)
Anyways, after I jumped out of bed, I went to the gym and ran intervals on the treadmill for 45 minutes (not including warm up/cool down)! It basically went like this:
2 minutes @ 4mph
1 minute @ 5
1 minute @ 5.5
1 minute @ 6
1 minute @ 6.5
1 minute @ 7
1 minute @ 7.5
1 minute @ 8
Repeat 5 times
It definitely kicked my butt and I felt fantastic! The time flew by with the constant change of speed, and I also had my handy dandy iPad. I downloaded and watched the pilot episode of the new TV show "Grimm" which was awesome by the way!
On another note...Happy 1st of November!!! Do you know what that means?? I'm getting married NEXT MONTH!!! Weeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited to be marrying my best friend and soul mate. He is the love of my life and I couldn't be happier to marry him!!!!

A couple weeks ago, Sean and I took engagement pictures. My cousin who is a brilliant film editor in Hollywood (Juno, Up In The Air, Love Happens, No Strings Attached) is getting into photography and was kind enough to take our photos for us. His wife is very creative too, and together they made an awesome team. Sean and I wanted something casual since our wedding is going to be more formal, so we decided to cruise down to one of the many little tucked away beaches in Laguna Beach. It was a gorgeous day, and we had so much fun! There were a ton of pictures taken, but here are a few of my favs :)
I love this man and I can't wait to marry him in 9 months!!
On the running front, this morning I went for a 30 minute run. I woke up and didn't feel like venturing out into the 40 degree weather, so instead I hit the treadmill for some intervals. It felt great and I made sure to push myself harder at the end....gotta build those negative splits right?!
Happy March everyone!!!
