Tonight I hit the dreadmill for my last track workout in my marathon training! I can’t believe that I have been doing these for 16 weeks! I feel so much stronger and ready to tackle my race on Saturday. The workout was awesome!
Which leads me to my Wednesday Workout Tip for the day.

Check out my new pink Under Armor hat from Marshalls🙂 Thanks SIS! My SIL got me a Marshall’s gift certificate for my Birthday, she knows me so well!
After I was done at the gym, Hubs and I took off for our date night. We got a gift certificate to Chili’s a long time ago we both decided tonight was the night to use it 🙂
I was SHOCKED to see a SKINNY Margarita on the menu. I used to get Margaritas all the time, until I learned how many calories were in them. These one’s only had 100 calories!!! I love that there is a pic of a Brownie Sundae right next to it..ha ha.
It was really tart!!! I liked it but would have liked some cherry with it. Tasted more like limeade.
While we waited for our food we played with the Hipstomatic App on my iPhone.
I ordered the Caribbean Salad with Shrimp. These salad was packed with fresh fruit and dried cherries. The shrimp was very tasty 🙂
Hubby ordered the chicken sandwich (I may or may not have stole some of his fries 😉 )
Then it was off to Costco. Date nights at Costco are always the best! I swear no matter where we go together we always have so much fun! My Husband is HILARIOUSE!!!!

Hubby was a great driver 🙂
Ok, is this seriously what Ritz just named their new crackers?!!
On the way home I stole one of our Skinny Cow’s that we bought..mmm..
While we were at Costco we picked up a little gift for the child.
Love at first site 🙂
Oh my boys.
