So excited!

I am off to see Michelle Obama give a press conference. Considering that I missed both Obama and Clinton when they came to Charlotte for the DNC, I feel so lucky to see Michelle. I don’t think I’ll get to talk to her or even get close, but here’s to hoping.
This morning has been go-go-go in an attempt to get everything together before leaving. My big goal of the day was to run 3.5 miles. I’m really trying to re-commit to running in preparation for my upcoming half marathon. I ran the last mile in a mere 7:55 – so proud.
Came home and made a basic lunch.
Eggs
Lentils
Steamed kale
Toast with Italian herb spread
Nom nom. Nom nom.
Off to hang with Mrs. Obama!

How fun! Enjoy the conference with Michelle Obama, I’ve always been a fan of her and her campaign against childhood obesity.

That is so exciting! I can’t wait to hear all about it!
Super jealous you get to see her!
Food looks yummy!
She is amazing!! Have fun and enjoy!
I wish I had those arms!
Haha me too
I can’t wait to hear how it was to listen to her speak!
Very jealous!
Regardless of which way I lean politically, I have always been a fan of Michelle Obama. I love her initiative to get healthy lunches in schools and for raising awareness about real food by putting in a garden at the White House. I hope you enjoy the press conference.
Aw, I love Michelle! Have fun!
So. FREAKING. Jealous.
Ohhh so exciting you’re abot to see (and maybe talk!) with Michelle!
For some reason your toast always looks really delicious. Everytime you post it for breakfast or lunch I always crave just basic fluffy toast with butter!
What kind of bread do you eat? It always looks delicious. And the herb spread is intriguing too.
7.55! Wow you are getting speedy!
Loooove Michelle!!! I hope you write about the press conference on the blog!
Very cool!
That is so exciting! I can’t wait to hear your post on her speech. I wish I could have seen Obama or the First Lady…or for that matter Bill or Hilary!
So exciting! She is such a lovely lady, I respect her so much! Congrats on the sub 8 minute mile, that’s awesome!
So exciting! I saw Bill Clinton speak for the 2008 election (campaigning for Hillary in the primary) and I will never forget it. I was about 20 feet away from him. Funny thing was it was in a small town in Montana population 4000 when I was visiting my aunt. So random.
oh, that is so exciting! I hope the event was great. She is so wonderful to see in person too!
I’d love to hear her speak!
Have a great time! I would love to hear her speak in person.
What a cool experience! I can’t wait to hear how it went. I’m a huge fan of hers – what an inspiration!!
That is so exciting! I actually think I would be more excited to see Michelle than President Obama himself. I love all that she is trying to do for improving childhood nutrition and lifestyles!
How do you prepare your lentils?
They are from Trader Joe’s and premade!
look at those shoulders and bis! dang, michelle!
