I wrote this post completely as the thoughts came to me. I went to re-write it to make it more “blog friendly” and I realized even though it may not sound perfect it is coming from the place I am right now. BELIEVE. I’m sure as a runner you’ve...

Goodbye 2017, hello 2018! 2017 wasn’t a bad year. In so many ways it was a really great year! I experienced so many firsts as a new Mom and did achieve a lot of goals that I had set for myself. On the other hand, there were some goals that I fell short of and...

Every week I run about half my runs without music and the other half with. I try to save music for workouts, long runs, or runs where I don’t have Easton. I don’t like to use music when I run with Easton so I rarely due. Occasionally if I have a stroller...
