Medal Monday? How ’bout Meb Monday! Yep, Went to a kick-off party for Rock N Roll San Diego this weekend… and Meb Keflezighi was there!! And I have some important stuff to report back… including a discount code for Rock N Roll San Diego. There’s a full marathon, half marathon, half relay and 5K!! Important stuff about Rock N Roll San Diego my Saturday shenanigans… 1. Meb was at the RNR San Diego Party. For those that don’t know – he’s one if the most decorated US marathon runners of his time. He won the silver medal at the 2004 Olympic games for the marathon. He finished 4th at the 2012 Olympics. And he won the 2009 New York City Marathon and 2014 Boston Marathon. Meb’s the first American male to win both of those races since the 80s. Amazing. And yet he’s so down to earth. I’m listening to his book right now. So far I love it. He talks about every marathon he’s run and lessons from training, races, injuries, etc. He’s so relate-able and so much of what he says are things I beli...

I couldn’t decide if this PB & Chocolate yogurt should be considered a snack or dessert. It’s so delicious, it tastes like Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie filling, but it’s packed with protein and healthy fats to help keep ya full and satisfied. So… I guess it can be considered a snack, dessert or anytime treat!! PB & Chocolate Yogurt Snack for One Ingredients: 6 oz. vanilla yogurt 1 Tb peanut butter 1 Tb chopped nuts 1 Tb dark chocolate shavings Directions: If your PB is a lil hard to stir – soften it in the microwave for a few seconds. Mix PB & Yogurt. Top with chocolate and nuts. Enjoy! This recipe can be used as a guide to create your own delicious treat! You can use your favorite Real California Milk vanilla or honey yogurt, switch PB out for almond butter, use milk or dark chocolate and top it with chopped peanuts. There are so many possibilities!  PB & Chocolate Yogurt Swaps: Real California Milk Yogurt –> vanilla, honey yogurt or plain yogurt ...

Today I’m talking with the winner of the Catalina Marathon. If you’re not familiar – it’s a trail marathon on Catalina Island, just off the coast of southern California. It’s been called a bucket list race and named one of the most beautiful courses in the US by tons of runners. I ran the race a while back and it’s GORGEOUS but it’s a very hard course. So I was so excited when I was just scrolling through instagram and saw that my real life friend won 1st place female. Amazing!! So we’re chatting about the race, her training and what’s next. I’ll share my race recap at the end of this post in case you’re here for some tips and info on the race. New to the Run Eat Repeat podcast?   Hi!! Thanks for stopping by! I’m Monica – I started RunEatRepeat.com to share my first full marathon training and diet journal. The site grew an awesome following and now it’s this podcast too! Thank you for listening! Let’s start with a warm up… 1. I’m freezing my eggs. I talked with a fertility ...

The Boston Marathon weekend was nonstop! Here are 10 Best Parts from the first day of the weekend. I didn’t run the race – I was there covering it with Hyland’s hosting ‘10,000 Miles to Boston’ – the video series following this year’s team training and race weekend. It was so much fun!! But it was PACKED so I wasn’t able to post a lot while I was there. But I’m super excited to finally share. The videos are on the @RunEatRepeat instagram and more are on Hyland’s Powered instagram . It’s not just about Boston – it’s about the runners. I think anyone would enjoy them so check it out. And I’ll be back soon with more! (The numbers are out of order because it’s randomly how live writer pasted them and I want to get this posted now.) 2. First thing I saw at the airport… a big Hyland’s sign!! Hello @hylandspowered Stop your cramp. Not Your race. Yes! 1. Boston  Marathon Expo fun! 3. We stayed at the StayPinapple. It has a pineapple theme and had this lil pup on the bed – whi...

I think this might be the BEST grilled cheese I’ve ever had! (And I’ve had a lot of them.) I call it the 3-2-1 Grilled Cheese because 3 veggies with 2 kinds of Real California Milk cheese makes for 1 delicious sandwich. Are you looking to Spring Clean your diet? Instead of cutting out certain foods or food groups … consider adding in ingredients that are good for you. The idea is that you’ll crowd out some of the less than healthy foods you want to cut back on with better-for-you options for balanced consumption of nutrient-dense foods, from both plant-based and dairy sources. And this sandwich packs a lot of nutrients from both to help with that! 3 – 2 – 1 Grilled Cheese Sandwich Ingredients: 4 slices whole wheat bread 6 slices Real California provolone cheese 1/2 cup Real California sharp cheddar cheese, grated 1 cup frozen broccoli handful spinach 2 small tomatoes, sliced Real California butter Directions: Directions: Place broccoli in a microwave safe dish and heat...

Hello! How’s it going? Over here it’s going…busy! I have a long list of To Dos – most of which have deadlines. Luckily one of those to do list items is…Answer the questions from the Instagram Story box. Boom. I just did! So the latest set of your questions is on video below! I also shared it on the @RunEatRepeat Insta Stories and it’ll be saved in April Q&A if you miss it after the first 24 hours. These questions are about my favorite cookbooks, podcasts, playlists and more… April Q &A – 1 What are your favorite cookbooks? I don’t really use cookbooks… but I love having them. I probably stick to the Food Network, magazines or Pinterest when I need inspiration for dinner ideas or other recipes. But I do have a few cookbooks handy at all times. They’re great coffee table books – so pretty!! These are the cookbooks I have on my shelf right now: Super Foods Super Fast by Julie Montague – I interviewed her for the podcast!
