Things I’ve Been Meaning to Do

I have a long list of things I’ve been meaning to do. Don’t we all?! Some are small, quick tasks and others are a bit more involved. Some are silly or just for fun and others are actually important and possibly even time sensitive! It’s not that I’ve been intentionally procrastinating, but I keep telling… Continue reading

Summer Bucket List – 2025 Edition

I’ve written many bucket/general aspiration/goal lists on this blog over the years. [Running bucket list, Spring 2025, Fall 2024, Summer 2024, 2023 Aspirations, 2022 Aspirations – to name a few!] I absolutely love writing them and reflecting on what is exciting or inspiring to me… even if I rarely end up actually marking things off… Continue reading

food and running, what’s new?!
I haven’t taken the time to sit down to write in a bit, but I did capture a few random photos from various happenings over the last week! We got back from Grand Cayman late on Monday, so I had a short week at work but it still felt oddly long. Last night I was… Continue reading

this week #37

Oops, I missed a week! I would apologize but I was busy celebrating my 30th and then flying down to the Cayman Islands for a long weekend with Patrick. Rough life, right?! I’m honestly in disbelief that it’s June already. Not in a “where has the time gone?!” kind of way, but in a “I… Continue reading

30 Truths on my 30th Birthday

It’s my birthday today! Yay! I’ve always loved my birthday. It’s normally a lovely day weather-wise and May 28 just sounds like a great day. Today it’s cool and gray and rainy, but I don’t mind. I start a new decade today, too. I can’t believe I’m 30! I’m stoked. I’m just getting started. For… Continue reading

MMT 100 Recap – Best DNF Yet

Well, I didn’t run the whole 100 miles of MMT – yet again! Dang flabbit! However, I am extremely proud of the progress I made, both mentally and physically, from my 2024 to 2025 attempts. I DNF’d at mile 76, 28 hours into the race as I missed the cutoff into the next aid station!… Continue reading

Hi, I’m back! I took the week off before MMT and am now trudging through the late-onset exhaustion hitting me many days post-race. Long story short, I still didn’t get to the finish, but I did make it 76 miles! I am incredibly proud. Once my brain fog is actually gone I want to write… Continue reading

this week #35
Happy Friday! What a weird week. It was a good week all around, and it felt very long, but I also felt like I didn’t have much free time in my days. Especially shocking considering I only ran twice this week! Yesterday felt so much like a Friday that I think that confused me further… Continue reading

Last Long Run!

This is going to basically be a photo series because, my god, the trails were gorgeous this weekend. This past weekend was my last long run before MMT in 12 days. I am officially tapering! YAY! I had 30 miles Saturday and 15 on Sunday (though I cut that short to 10), and I am… Continue reading

this week #34

IT IS OFFICIALLY THE BEST MONTH OF THE YEAR! May! I’m biased because it is my birthday month, but also the weather is fab, the pool opens, it’s almost summer, and it used to be the last month of school (when I was a kid). What’s not to love?! I hope you’re having a great… Continue reading
