“Best” Coffee I’ve Ever Had
I recently read this personal essay about enjoying bad coffee and enjoyed it so much. My relationship with good/expensive coffee has evolved so much over the years and now I simply enjoy Trader Joe’s medium roast beans brewed in my old Mr. Coffee drip machine each morning. This was definitely not always the case, but… Continue reading

on this summer
Happy Sunday from my porch! Patrick is off on a long bike ride and my legs are in desperate need of a break. I had a heavy squat block on Thursday that has left me sore for days and, while running did seem to shake some of the soreness, I think it’s best for me… Continue reading

bull market mood
Well well well, it has been a minute. I think that’s how I start 99% of my blog posts these days. I can’t help it! I sit down to write something and then get frustrated that my thoughts don’t make as much sense as I want them to or I just get distracted by something… Continue reading

January, so far
We are already halfway through January! I am genuinely shocked. I know I am not alone when I say that January normally feels at least 70 days long. Nonetheless, this month has felt pretty good… so far. I absolutely feel like I am going to jinx myself, but oh well. Work has been busy, I’ve… Continue reading

2022 Aspirations
Happy (almost) New Year! I love this time of year. I didn’t feel much into the holiday spirit this year, probably because the pandemic is still raging and some other stressful factors going on in life. Nonetheless, I love the energy the new year brings and I love how excited everyone gets to bring about… Continue reading

Running Diary: Training Plan – Here We Go!

Running Diary: A Rainy Week
Oops! Somehow a whole week went by and I didn’t even realize. We had a lot of rain this week, which thwarted some of the scheduling for running. Despite some workweek exhaustion and the crappy weather, it turned into a pretty great week of training and I am looking forward to kicking off our training… 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. My final year of grad school starts this week and I am looking forward to my classes for the semester. It’s a three year program because it was part-time and it… Continue reading

Running Diary: PTO, baby!
Hello and happy Monday! I am slowly catching up on work today as I took Thursday and Friday off last week. It was so nice to leisurely do things around the house, run errands, and be a little bit of a tourist. My brain needed the reset. Our beautiful cooler temperatures are gone here in… Continue reading

Running Diary: A Long One!
Hello, I’m back! I totally neglected this last week and so I have two weeks worth of training to share. Training has been challenging lately, but I am grateful for the opportunity to do it. July felt so long, but I also cannot believe it’s August. I am sitting on our screened in porch enjoying… Continue reading
