Well I didn’t quite make the 21 miles I was short by 3 and ended up logging 18.2. It was my mid-week runs…I had a couple meetings come up that cramped my lunch time runs and so I just got in 3 one day and the other had to do a 5 before work but [...]

I am so falling off on my blogging other than the weekly training updates….life is good. We finally had a down weekend and I can see the counter again in my office which feels good. This week we had the book fair at school so I spent a night selling subway sandwiches in 3 inch [...]
Training on the road

This week is gonna be a little tough….the schedule is just crazy. Fortunately I took advantage of free time during vacation to make sure I kept to last weeks schedule and my 8 mile run wasn’t too bad. The hills slowed me down but I met my lovebugs for breakfast at the end of the [...]
Olympics in traveling

I am going for the gold this week with traveling. Completing my last round of training before picking up my girl and heading home to be with the family. My silver lining of this trip is that my last stop is to pick up MB. Now I just need the days to fly by. Day [...]

About a year ago I started training for my first half marathon. A long run for me was 3 miles. That would wear me out. That was a year ago. This weekend I went for a group bike ride with some ladies in my neighborhood. My first group ride- it was a lot of fun [...]

I get up at least 5 days a week either at 5am or at 6am. Only way to get in those long runs before the day begins…or to make it to an 1 hour and 20min hot yoga class. I am thankful, especially in the summer, that I have finally learned how to get up [...]
