Running Diary: Training Plan – Here We Go!
Wow, what a week. To say I was happy for this week to be over and for a three day weekend would be an understatement. I was angry, exhausted, overwhelmed, elated, excited, and energetic all at once. This was the first week of our 50 miler training plan and all in all I think it Continue reading

Running Diary: Much Needed Break
Hello! I am two weeks behind on another training update. I don’t even have a legitimate reason, I just never got around to it.

Endorphin High!
Yo wazzup! Remember that time I was freaking out about my running? 😉 Well, I mentioned that I should pay more attention to my mile splits and blah blah blah. Today I went on a run and did exactly the opposite. I didn’t track it whatsoever. I just listened to the music on my phone. Continue reading
