INTENTION: My theme word for 2019!

Laura BowersMarch 15, 2019August 17, 2021

Seeing as how we’re nearing the end of the first quarter, this might seem a little late. But goals are a year-round topic and my life has already greatly improved so I’m sharing this post! (Plus, it took me a long time to write the draft in January.) So onward, lovelies! Speaking of love, I …

Beachbody’s Day 80 Obsession: The meal plan??

Laura BowersMarch 4, 2018August 17, 2021

Ouch. That’s the best way to describe how I felt on Friday morning. Major ouch. The fact that I hurt all over from my first 80 Day Obsession workout is still seriously irksome. I mean, honestly. I just ran the Dopey Challenge … all 48.6 miles, in January. How is it possible for me to …

Beachbody’s 80 Day Obsession: The Start!

Laura BowersMarch 1, 2018August 17, 2021

Confession: I didn’t feel good about myself during the Princess Half Marathon Weekend. I felt out of shape, overwhelmed, overweight and downright crappy. How was that possible considering I had just completed the 48.6 Dopey Challenge only six weeks ago? I’ll tell you why: because there is a thin line between taking the time to …

Laura BowersAugust 5, 2017August 17, 2021

Wow. August already! It must be because Bob and I are in the truck at this very moment, heading to the beach for a much-needed vacation. I’m super excited but a small part of me is discouraged …

Accountability Quest: Third Quarter Goals

Laura BowersJuly 10, 2017July 25, 2017

Hmm, how did I do with my Second Quarter Goals? Well, I sucked. Big time. And it’s not that I haven’t been working hard. My daily to-do lists have been thoroughly attacked, but still, as far as my goals go, I hadn’t accomplished squat. Well, I did heal, thank God! That’s a major biggie! I’m so grateful …

  • Jumping in on the tail end of #PrincessWeek to show love to these amazing gals who changed my life! ✨💖✨
✨
Fun Fact: Before the 2014 #TowerofTerror race, I hadn’t gone on a vacation with girlfriends in over 20 years and I was still mourning the loss of a dear friend. So when @sarahud5 and @shannon_mcintosh42 invited me to join their group on a runDisney adventure … OMG. I was beyond excited!! 🥰
✨
And nervous. 😳 What if they didn’t like me?? I was so worried about making a bad impression that I was careful to hide my crazy, staying on my absolute best behavior. I was neat and never late, always the first to be ready. I did multiple courtesy flushes, volunteered for the sleeper sofa, and tried my best not to curse … emphasis on TRY 🤣.
✨
Turned out, however, we were all wonderfully crazy and they accepted me, flaws and all, late or cursing. 🥰 Then came along @winter720 and @jennalynjaeger making our Princess group complete!! 👑 And throughout my runDisney journey, I’ve met so many other awesome people and made countless memories I’ll always cherish! ❤️
✨
So now I can’t wait for my 12th year of the #PrincessHalfMarathon with my roomies, (except Steph, sniff 😢) and so many other dear friends! 👑 And ladies, I’ll try to stop being late all the time … emphasis on TRY. 🤣

We had such an amazing adventure last weekend with the kids!! Lots of time on the water … my happy place … with @asapbrocy fishing and crabbing with his dad and @tay_tayann._ as my new paddle board buddy!! 🛶 
🔹
I also tried paddle board yoga for the first time … with tons of jellyfish in the water. 😳 Do. Not. Fall. 🤣 But my new @serenelifesupboard handled like a boss, even in the choppy water! I’m so glad I bought it on Amazon prime day!! 💙
🔹
I hope you’re having an amazing summer!!
