Five Running Tips
Happy Sunday! I hope you are having a relaxing day with glorious fall weather. I sure am. We slept in a bit, and then headed to our local park to get some trail miles in. I was a bit fatigued from my tempo run yesterday so I took it easy, enjoyed the changing leaves, and… Continue reading

Life continues to be busy and I am trying to use any extra time I can to get my life together so that I can sleep as much as possible each night! I do not want to fall off of writing here while I’m managing my time and energy, so I am going to stick… Continue reading

Good morning and happy Monday! Last week was a busy week. I started my new job, and I got back to running after being sick. Between the two, I was mentally and physically exhausted by the time Friday rolled around. Fortunately, this weekend was extremely fun and restorative (+ we’re getting massages tonight), so I… Continue reading

Summer Running Reflections
This has been a whacky summer of running. I’ve been pretty consistent, but also rolling with the punches and adapting when life takes a turn. It has also been the hottest and most humid summer I can remember since moving to Virginia, which sucks and has made running really hard at times. The first half… Continue reading

Hi! How are you? It’s been a pretty wild few weeks. Do you constantly feel like you’re about to crash out? Is your every conversation about the doom and gloom that is the state of our democracy? Understandable. 100%. But I’m going to hold your hand while I say this: you need to get it… Continue reading

Half Formed Thoughts
I’ve had a topic that I’ve wanted to write about all week. It’s been a half formed idea that’s been floating around in my brain since last weekend but, every time I sit down to write, my brain fizzles out and can’t muster up quite enough power to make it happen. Maybe because this week… Continue reading

A Year of Running
It’s not even November and I already can’t believe all the running I’ve done this year. 2024 really has been the year of races and big running and seeing what my body can do. In the past I’ve stuck with maybe doing one or two races a year and I was never really racing. I… Continue reading
