What a week this has been. I am grateful my life gives me the flexibility to be there for people I love when they need me. But now there is a lot of catch up, which isn’t always something I’m great at, but I’ll make it work! But let’s rewind a minute to last weekend, [...]

Sometimes, you surprise yourself so much, it’s almost unbelievable. This Saturday I ran the Ocean City Island to Island Half Marathon with my longtime friend (and maid/matron of honor buddy) Jen. It was Jen’s first half marathon and my seventh. Neither one of us felt like we were very well trained, me because of my [...]

If you had asked me 2 weeks ago what I thought about the Kelly Shamrock 5k race, I would have told you that it was going to be a slam dunk. My training had been rocking since Disney and I was seeing my speedwork paces drop and drop. I was ready for a 25 minute [...]

Well I certainly had a (hopefully) once in a lifetime race experience this weekend. See how it looks like I’m yelling in the photo? Well I was.

What a difference a year makes! It’s the second weekend of November, which means it’s time to celebrate our veterans and run the Veterans Day 10k on the Tidal Basin in DC. I ran this race last year. Then it was my second ever and longest race, and I was coming into it with a [...]
