Avon Walk Weekly Update
It’s time again for my weekly Avon Walk update. If you’d like to see my full training calendar, check it out here or on the left sidebar of my blog.
Thoughts on training: I’ve been slacking on my updates on here, but my training has been going ok. I’ve decided to focus on hill training since San Fran is very hilly. So I’m doing shorter walks up a very hilly road near us. That’s been going pretty well.
In other news, I finally got all my gear figured out including my outfit. That’s a big sigh of relief!
Thoughts on fundraising: I am lucky to have such generous friends and family members. I have surpassed my goal and can’t wait to start fundraising for next year!
Miles walked last week: 6
Minutes doing cardio: 45
Minutes doing cross training or weight lifting: 0
Total $$ raised: $2,789
Thanks to everyone who has donated so far! If you’d like to donate to support my walk, you can make a donation on my Avon Walk page.






I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






i grew up on boiled vegetables and soggy potatoes (blech) so when i grew up and started roasting everything to crispiness, it was a revelation
Butternut squash and spinach casserole? Yes, please! I love the beautiful colors too!
That is a good point about side dishes bringing a meal together. I have been trying to be better about including them in my weekly menu planning.
The butternut squash and spinach casserole sounds like perfection!! Definitely going to try that soon 🙂

I made the butternut squash and spinach casserole last year, and it was FANTASTIC. It makes a ton, too! Wow, it was so good, I can’t wait to make it again.
I’ve made your fire roasted ketchup twice this summer, it is awesome! So easy and so tasty, it really adds pizzaz to burgers.
Thanks so much for all you do!
