Happy Haunted Half Saturday! I can’t wait to tell you about the great morning I had! My day started at 3:15 a.m., so I’ve literally put in a full day of “work” now that it’s after 11 a.m. The plan for the day actually kind of commenced last night when I talked to my friend Carrie. She mentioned that she, Catie and Ian (Catie’s boyfriend) […]
A few miles per hour slower and most certainly a few pounds heavier, I’m back to the blog after a (much needed) sabbatical. (OK ok so, maybe just a few TENTHS of a mile slower, and a few TENTHS of a pound heavier. But that ish adds up, am I right?) I should also take a moment to comment on the title of this post […]
Hey guys, So – in full disclosure, when I was blogging Monday, I was blogging from my iPad. My Macbook, may it rest in peace, did not agree with the update to O.S. Yosemite and thus is stuck somewhere in Macbook limbo where it wants to startup, but it has no operating system to boot with. My biggest fear is all every photo I’ve ever […]
Today is day 8 of the 130-mile challenge. 80 miles down, 50 to go. This feels kind of like a home stretch, but man am I tired. MAYBE the exhaustion has something to do with the fact that my Keurig crapped out on me again and I’ve been without coffee for like a week now. It’s miserable. I’ve been chugging a diet Coke every morning […]
So I’ve done it again — abandoned my loyal blog readers. I’ve literally been a world traveler lately though so, I feel like that’s a legitimate excuse. In an effort to get back up to speed rather quickly, I’m going to borrow an idea from Janae and give you single, five-word sentences with each photo to recap the last few weeks. Then, hopefully, I’ll be […]
Hey guys, happy Sunday. Let’s get right down to it: I’m diving back into working with a coach, and Todd Smoot has already worked up a brilliant three-month running/strength and conditioning plan for me. I’m absolutely in love with the fact that the plan includes 6-7 days a week of running (instead of 4) 3 days of strengthening (instead of 2 x 6 days a […]
Guys… rainy days and Mondays always get me down. And today, it was both. When I say no Bueno, I mean NO BUENO. At all. Today was just one of those days, ya know? I know you know what I’m talking about. Just one of those days that started off with a less than stellar sleep last night (<– do you ever leave the TV […]
Hey guys, happy hump day! Halfway through the week and halfway closer to a three-day weekend! I’m gonna need it for sure. So I mentioned on Monday that I did a strength circuit at home in lieu of my typical Day 1 of the weekly workout. Well, one of the best things about my coach and my options for weekly strength and conditioning is that […]
Guess what guys — it’s freaking cold out. COLD. Like, really freaking cold. I ran outside this morning for the first time in FOREVER. I’ve run outside, but not at the 5 a.m. crack of dawn like usual. As I stepped out of my car, I silently cursed the decision. Even as I faced Angie and Jeremiah, I contemplated leaving and going to Planet Fitness […]
