this week #66
Hi! It’s been a minute. I finally started feeling better after two weeks of illness, and then I hit the ground running. At the same time, Patrick started feeling sick a solid 10 days after I would’ve initially infected him. Sleep was not pretty last week. Patrick was coughing up a storm and Alaska was… Continue reading

this week #64
Happy Friday! I hope you’ve been having a wonderful day. It was a weird week over here at Casa Nicolini Mannon. Our sweet dog Alaska had a series of really hard days and we were very concerned. We took her to the vet on Wednesday and she seems to be doing better, but is generally… Continue reading

Falling Water 100k Race Recap!
You guys, I did it! I rounded out my spring racing season with Falling Water 100k in the beautiful New River Gorge of West Virginia! Long story short, it was super fun and also hard. I had set a random goal of 16 hours and ended up finishing just under 17. I am so good… Continue reading

Happy Monday! Spirits are high, the sun is shining today, and I’m coming off a really fun and beautiful weekend.

Another great race weekend in the books! Patrick and I headed out to Harrisonburg on Friday afternoon to gear up for Hone Quarry 40 Miler on Saturday. I did this race last year as a tune up for MMT, so I thought it would work perfectly for the same purpose as I enter my last… Continue reading

Cabin Fever 50k Recap!
Good evening from a very snowy Arlington! I am freshly showered and lounging in bed, very much intending on falling asleep early tonight. We’re closing out a very fun, whirlwind week of travel and big running, and I am pooped. In a good way! Yesterday was the Cabin Fever 50k in New River Gorge National… Continue reading

this week #57
Happy Monday! We are coming off a really fun, though unexpected, weekend celebrating Erica’s birthday. We rented an Airbnb that was pretty off the grid in central Virginia for Friday-Sunday. It rained all day Saturday and then we lost power! And running water! Since we had no service or Internet, and the power didn’t come… Continue reading

this week #56
Good morning, and happy Saturday! I slept in and am chilling on the couch before I eventually get around to doing my run for the day. After a few nights of staying up late, I needed it. Not to mention, it’s freezing outside. I am in no rush to get out there! It’s been a… Continue reading
