The City That Never Sleeps
Hmm..
I think what they were really referring to was the city in the summertime.
5 million degrees, creaky air conditioner unit, humid 300 sq ft apartment, attempting to sleep/sticking to the futon.
Yup, I think that’s what they really meant.

Yesterday, my training schedule called for an Easy 3 miles.
Sweet! I can do that. I just ran 6 on Saturday.. definitely a piece of cake right?!
Wrong-o.
Omgawd it was the toughest 3 miles I think I’ve ever run. Every second, I kept staring at my iPod to see how much longer I had to go.
Obligatory puppy face.
A mixture of the insane humidity, hurricane-like wind & this 1 girl I saw running with her hair down reallyyyyy annoyed me (as lame as that is haha).
Who runs with their hair down?!
I don’t get it.
The water fountain at the end of the run definitely saved the day.
Slurp slurp.
With this crazy summer heat, I’ve found a glorious appreciation for skirts,
Hair buns that take approximately .06 milliseconds to throw up,
(sorry for the ridiculous pose.. I fail.)
Hazelnut iced coffee!
x’s 2.
And eating lunch in Bryant Park.
Shrimp Summer Rolls… how I love thee.
How do you survive working out in this heat?
Good running! Beautiful outfit! Delicious-looking food! You are AMAZING!
Love,
Mom
Miss you mammasita!
I run at 5 AM
Haha.
You are ridiculous.
In a good way of course hehe.
I completely avoid running when its hot, haha. I can’t stand it! Girls running with the hair down would annoy me too.
LOVE your hair up in a bun like that – you are such a beauty! I ran 2 miles outdoors in 100 degree heat this afternoon as part of a CrossFit workout. VOMIT. I still don’t feel quite right.
Oh, and girl running with her hair down makes me punchy. How can anyone do that??
It’s hot as hell here.. you already know what Florida summers are like. disgusting. I wait until late to run I left last night at 7:15 and it was tolerable. I’m not a early morning person, so running early isn’t happening, my legs just won’t go unless they are racing.
Love your outfit, super cute!
Summer exercise is intense in the heat! I think the only way to beat it is to exercise early or late, but even that can be tough.
I can’t even go for a walk without my hair up… I don’t know what that girl was thinking.
I think to myself how much I secretly love being insanely sweaty. Like the arms, legs, every square inch of your body that’s covered in sweat. Kinda gross I know but it reminds me when I used to play basketball in a super hot gym with no ac for hours on end. And I feel like I get a “better” workout when I sweat way more. Keep truckin’ woman!
hahah If I saw a girl with her hair down running I’m afraid I may scream at her!!! I did a 5 miler race in central park a couple of weeks ago and I saw a women with full on makeup — like really!? Did she not think it’d melt after 5miles in 70 degree weather and 80% humidity!?
I really don’t know how I survive working out in this heat – a miracle? Bringing water definitely helps/keeps me alive. I also discovered this week, that if you run before 7am the sun is a lot less intense.
ha! I always wonder when people workout with their hair down too. Maybe she forgot a twistie and wanted to do it anyway? Who knows.
Iced coffee is a must for summer!
Those rolls look delicious!!
i don’t understand working out w/o a hair tie…mind boggling
Love your outfits <3
I usually run at dusk when it starts to cool down a wee bit. That and the sun is low enough as to be out of my face! LOL
The humidity has been ROUGH lately. But just think how much better the weather will feel come Marathon Day!
Lemme know next time you’re in Bryant Park for lunch. My office is two secs away from the park!!
runs like that suck, when time is going at slug-speed and each step feels like an eternity!! lol. your lunch salad is very impressive- looks so balanced and delicious!
I LOVE that you are wearing a cut off t-shirt to run in! I do that all the time, but sometimes I feel like I get weird looks because of it.
It is 50-60 degrees in North Seattle at night… Jealous?
So happy you are living up the Summer in NYC, you look so happy 
As far as exercising in the heat – I either go super early if I have to do something outside, or I hit the gym for strength training/walking on the treadmill (so I can watch TV because I am super lame and don’t have one), or I go to yoga or something. Running during the summer is a biznatch.
As far as people exercising with their hair down – drives.me.crazy. There’s always girls with long hair down at yoga. I think it’s weirdddd.
great post.
I also like the small icons of the sunshine and silverare on your blog header. I normally wouldn’t have thought twice about it, but I just saw those exact icons YESTERDAY in the Picasa photo editor. You put yours to good use.
