This week has been crazy busy and it is only Wednesday! I’m seriously just trying to hang on for dear life until the weekend comes. I’m not sure that’s the best way to live, but sometimes you just have to do what it takes. My husband and I have some exciting things in...

Happy Sunday! I don’t know how the weekend continues to go by so fast, but I’m glad I’ve had a full weekend to really rest and re-set. Running when it is light outside is much hotter, but enjoyable as well! I can actually run on different roads and look at the views...

The tempo run. It is by far my most feared run, but it is also the most rewarding. I’ve talked to a few others who feel the same way, so I know for the most part I must not be alone! Hansons method has one tempo run per week. You start with 6 miles and increase by 1...

Is it just me or are the weeks after a holiday even harder to get back into it? Sunday and Monday’s runs were less than stellar to say the last. I don’t know why, but whenever I don’t run on a treadmill for a while it beats up my legs pretty badly. They felt like lead...

Happy Wednesday! I hope everyone’s week is going by quickly and smoothly. I’ve had to make a few changes this week to help get me out of my running funk last week, and so far so good! I’ll go into more detail later this week! Aside from evaluating my training, there...

Today is a good day. It’s one of my favorite days. In fact, 4 years ago today was hands down the best day of my life. On this day, at 5:30 pm I said “I Do” to my best friend, love, and running partner for life. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. You...

Starting a new training cycle brings up a lot of different emotions. Ok, it’s not quite as dramatic as that makes it sounds but the fear of the unknowns often comes back to haunt me. My husband is always telling me “just relax.” I’m sure at this point after 10 years...
