For a few years now, I make a list of the races I plan on doing in the upcoming year. This was really helpful when I was on a streak of running at least one race per month. Sadly that streak came to an end in 2019 when I did not run my planned race… Continue reading My Running Year in Review

October 2019 Training Recap
We are more than halfway through November, and here I am finally writing a recap of my October training. I’m going to do things a little differently this month. Rather than copy and paste my usual format, spewing out stats and numbers, I’m just gonna write what’s on my mind and on my heart. You’ve… Continue reading October 2019 Training Recap
Race Recap: Indianapolis Monumental Marathon 2019
“There will be days you don’t think you can run a marathon.

April ended with a bit of a weird feeling that hung around for a while in May. May was a busy month between doing a run streak, training to beat my 10k PR, and having fun in my social life. So although I'm a little disappointed that I did not do any blogging last month,… Continue reading April & May 2019 Training Recap
Race Recap: Owens Corning Half Marathon 2019
It has been 3 weeks since the Glass City Owens Corning Half Marathon and I am still struggling to write this recap. I would love to give the excuse that life has gotten so busy and I haven't had time (and I have been busy, so that wouldn't be a lie) but it is honestly… Continue reading Race Recap: Owens Corning Half Marathon 2019
