nothing makes you feel more alive than a brisk 8 miles before the sun comes up. I haven’t had a whole lot to say the last few days. Mainly because I skipped my long run this weekend. I meant to do it, but I got distracted, had a lot of fun, and then was just too [...]

Over a year ago, before I thought anyone would ever read it, I posted this. A simple list of goals, things I wished for in my future and in the new life I was hoping for. I look back at those goals and realized I accomplished every single one. A few months later, I posted [...]

oh hello friends. hope everyone had a lovely weekend. I took recovery and rest pretty seriously last week. i.e. I went running once – for 2.5 miles. and on the other days, I celebrated, played with friends, and didn’t work out at all. It was nice not to have a schedule. Few photos from the [...]

I really can’t believe the race is over. I’ve been talking about a half marathon for over a year and a half, running for 6 months, and have been committed to a training plan for almost as long. goal accomplished. now what? Half marathon training certainly wasn’t life consuming, like a full would be. It [...]

It’s entirely possible that I’ve lost my mind, but I’d like to think I’m just motivated & more importantly, committed. Today was supposed to get up to triple digits, so I got up before the sun (literally) to get in my long run before the heat got intense. its 5:30ish. i’m sleepy, a lil nervous, [...]

last night’s surprise rain storm was annoying at first – and then I realized it was pretty great. did I have to walk home in the rain? yeah. BUT it also means that the temp dropped and the humidity pretty much went away. That means: no AC. maybe I’m just cheap but sleeping with the slider open, the [...]

we made it through Monday!! nicely done. Most of the time, I have no issues fitting in my long runs. I tend to embrace being low key on Friday so I can get up on Saturday to run. This weekend not so much. I was away for the weekend of the 4th, was planning [...]

so ready! I’ve managed to do my runs in the morning this week, which is an accomplishment in its self. (I’m pretty terrible at getting out of bed in the AM) I’ve noticed though that by getting my workouts in early, I feel like I’m due for a workout earlier. Tuesday morning I ran, and by Wednesday [...]
