Boston Marathon 2019
This blog is long overdue for an update! I recently completed my 10th marathon, which also happened to be my second Boston Marathon. This experience was completely different than my first in 2018. I approached the start line this year healthy, uninjured, and with low expectations about a finish time. I finished strong, with my … Continue reading Boston Marathon 2019
Post-Race Feels
Today, while waiting for post-race awards at a local 5k, I cried after hearing a woman talk about her first 10k experience. She told her friend that her race was tough and she was struggling in the last two miles. It was taking her longer than she had expected to finish, longer than most of … Continue reading Post-Race Feels
2018 Boston Marathon
I started this recap a few days after Boston, but I’m only just finishing it a month later. Since Boston, I started working full time and haven’t really had much time to do anything else! I definitely wanted to get all my thoughts about the race down because it was so special to me, so … Continue reading 2018 Boston Marathon
Strava Badge
I love using Strava for running. I don't know how I ever ran a step before it! I'm kidding, but the app/website has really great features for athletes. I'm able to upload runs from my Garmin watch. I can log the number of miles I'm running on my shoes. I can view fellow athlete's workouts, … Continue reading Strava Badge
St. Jude Memphis Marathon Recap
To end a crazy year of running, I ran the St. Jude Memphis Marathon on Dec. 2nd. It was my third marathon in 90 days, and when I finished I earned my entry into the Marathon Maniacs club at the Bronze level. It was a goal I had never thought of until my running buddy … Continue reading St. Jude Memphis Marathon Recap
Peak to Creek Recap
It’s finally time to recap the Peak to Creek Marathon! You may think waiting a month to review is too long, but I just received my age group award in the mail so I’ll use that as my excuse. I heard about the Peak to Creek Marathon in early 2017, and thought it would be … Continue reading Peak to Creek Recap
2017 Freakin Fast Marathon Recap
Recap of the Freakin Fast Marathon and my first Boston qualifying race.
Summer Training/Fall Racing
As I type this (long overdue) blog post, my husband is painting one of our upstairs guest rooms a pale pink in preparation for moving our baby girl upstairs. This means we can transform the nursery next to our bedroom into an office. Which, hopefully, means I'll be doing a lot more writing! In addition … Continue reading Summer Training/Fall Racing
The Post-Baby PR
Some time last year, while training for the Asheville Half Marathon, I came up with the mantra that every race I ran would lead to a new kind of PR - a Post-Baby PR. (For you non-runners, a PR is a Person Record, your best time for a particular distance.) People would ask me how … Continue reading The Post-Baby PR
