Nah, Imma Stay. {{Namaste!}}

Well, look who it is… It’s the Hot-Yoga-Loving-Cherie! She’s back! Well, she never really left…she’s just not been at hot yoga since last summer. And please excuse this old picture from back then! I was all set to take a fresh picture with my mat today, but I left the doggone thing at the studio. …

Fifty Shades of My Weekend

My first race is in 12 days and I finally ran yesterday for the first time in days. DAYS! I last ran-ran on Tuesday {one day after the gym machine ninja attack–dumb, I know}, and then couldn’t attempt another run until days later on Saturday. And that was surely JUST an attempt. Even after all …

When yoga farts happen to good people.

First, let me clarify that they have NOT happened to ME yet. Second, I’m a classy chick, so never did I think I’d be devoting a post to farting in yoga class. But–never say never AND as I’ve said many a time, I like honesty/rawness in my blog. It’s a legit concern of mine, I’m heading …

What I thankfully did {not do} on my summer vacation.

Hey y’all! I hope you had a fantastic Labor Day weekend! From what I’ve been hearing, there’ve been beach trips, roadtrips, delicious eats, amusement park roller coaster incidents, engagements, relaxation, reflecting and a lot of working out. Whatever you got into, may the unofficial close of summer have been memory-making for you! I’m just going …

A Very Flexitarian Day!

Do you remember on Pee-Wee’s Playhouse how they had a Secret Word?  “You all know what to do when anyone says the secret word, right? Scream!” Yesterday on Twitter I felt like the Secret Word was “flexitarian.” Every third tweet that I saw on my timeline was with the hashtag HLS {#HLS} and it mentioned …

Shut The Front Door!

Y’all know that I love hot yoga to pieces. If you didn’t know, and you’re new to Cherie Runs This, Hi–I’m Cherie and I love hot yoga to pieces. Sometimes though, as much as I love it, I feel like it sticks its tongue out at me, puts its hands to its ears, wiggles its …

I can let myself go; I just have to come back.

When I wrote about eating, drinking and being married the other day, let’s just say that most of my roadtrip concerned the eating and drinking. As usual, I packed all the necessary items to stay on a healthy eating, waist-thigh-and-stomach friendly path. But somehow, I managed to eat all of this over the span of …

Meatless Monday. FAIL.

Every time I get out of my hot yoga class I am famished! Could be due to me not eating before class, could be due to me burning a truckload of calories during the session. Not sure what it is, but this morning was no different. The best thing about it is that all I …

UPlifting Saturday.

I’m happy to report that I managed to hydrate and eat properly before hot yoga class yesterday and therefore did not black out, get woozy or have to sit out some of the poses. I was not “that girl.” Yay! 🙂 The night before, I made sure to guzzle water and wash away any leftovers from …

Is it Savasana o’clock yet?

People are surprised when I say it, but sometimes, I don’t feel like working out. Now, 99.97% of the time, I do. But occasionally, from the moment I wake up in the morning, I’ll know when it’s one of those rare times that I just don’t feel like it. Yesterday was one of those days. …
