Healthy Living Summit 2010

I decided that I wasn’t too sick to go to the gym, so I packed up my swim gear and put on my running clothes.  I started off by banging out 2.8 miles outside in 28 minutes.  I park my car at the gym and then run around the neighborhoods – I hate running on the dreadmill! 

 

But when I got back to my car, I was just too tired to swim.  The idea of cold water wasn’t very appealing, and my throat hurt again.  So, I guess I’m not totally better yet!

 

Here are my eats for the afternoon…

 

Pumpkin yogurt and 1 serving of granola around 3 PM:

And a few handful of Cheerios right before I ran:

Dinner was simple, yet tasty!

The star was a Barney Butter and Hot Pepper Raspberry jam sandwich:

Plus, leftover veggie soup and an orange.

 

OK, OK – What you guys have been waiting for!  :)

 

Healthy Living Summit 2010

 

Last August, a group of bloggers and myself got together and decided to organize a blogger/reader conference.  Kath, Jenna, Tina, Meghann, Heather, and I worked with Stonyfield Farm, Foodbuzz, and Zesty Cook to put together a three-day summit for 125 people.

IMG_0831640x480_thumb

Here’s my recaps of the Healthy Living Summit 2009 events:

 

 

It was a really fun way to meet a lot of the people I’ve been interacting with through the blogs!

The moment the Summit was over, the planning committee started to exchange e-mails about the next event.

 

The Healthy Living Summit 2010 will be:

 

  • BIGGER!  We sold out in 25 minutes last year so we’re increasing the number of tickets from 125 to around 200 or so.
  • BETTER! It’s going to be even more interactive and fun.  Plus, don’t you worry – you’ll be hooking everyone up with sweet swag bags again!

 

And will *probably* take place in early August in Chicago.  It will not be the same weekend as BlogHer.

 

We are securing sponsorship, which is why we don’t know the exact date or location.  But this is 95% certain.  We wanted to let everyone know so (if you’re interested in joining us!) you can make plans.

 

If you’ve never been to a blogging event like this, don’t be shy! Everyone was really nice at the Summit, and I think everyone had a great time meeting new friends.

 

Hope to see you there! :) :)

    GREAT choice!! Chicago is perfect and only 5 hours from me. It is such a fun place to visit in the summer. Can’t wait to hear more about it as you ladies plan.

    You guys did such a great job last year. I watched it on the live stream and was very impressed what you girls had done.

    Now…to your sickness! Have you had a HOT bath yet? I really swear by them. I also put a cup of Epsom salts in the bath. It really makes you sweat. When get out of the bath I wrap up in my robe and just relax for a bit. You will still be sweating when you get out. I always feel better after this. It is my ‘cure’ all remedy!

    Ahhh man!! I knew it would be in Chicago, but I probably won’t be able to go since I’ll be about 3 weeks from having the bambino (unless it comes early, and in that case, I really wouldn’t be able to go!). I may consider this, though. I’d love to go to the Summit, and I don’t know if it will ever be closer to me than in Chi-town.

    Just occurred to me that Lollapalooza is the 6-8 in August.

    Might want to avoid those dates. It gets pretty insane downtown. Though it would be pretty awesome if there was a Bloggy/Bloggy Friend concert get together!
