It’s almost GO TIME, folks! Moving on Thursday! Racing on Sunday! I’m super amped up and I’m not sure if it’s nerves or excitement. Either way, it’s a bit overwhelming. Also, I’m going to take this moment to let y’all […]
Happy Tuesday! I’m a bundle of nerves lately. There are officially 16 days left until we move. And 19 days left until my first half marathon since fall of 2014. I’m both excited and nervous. I think I’m nervous for […]
Hey y’all! How was your weekend? I hope you survived Monday? I did. Barely. 😉 Last week’s training was splendid. I’m getting ready for a 5K trail race this coming weekend, so it’s been all about speed and leg turnover […]

I’m so tired. And sore. My gosh! I knew I would be but not having run 20 miles before, I guess I didn’t know quite what to expect. I had quite the weekend. I ran my first 20 miles ever. […]
