Thanks to the Friday Five link-up with Mar, Cynthia, and Courtney, I’m offering five races you need to experience! And, don’t worry because I am offering you some races that are still taking registrations and races that you can throw your name in the hat via their lottery systems. Plus, there is a little bit for everyone with a variety of distances! Beach to Beacon 10k: This is hands down one of my favorite races. I love Maine and the execution of {Read More}
I’m back after a whirlwind weekend at Walt Disney World! I’m so thankful for the weekend of warm weather with my family. But, now, it’s back to the the work grind and some freezing weather. I am so happy to report that I raced! Despite a rough February of training, I managed to race this weekend. I ran the Enchanted 10k on Saturday. Then Cora and I ran the 200m Kid’s Race together shortly after the 10k. Then, to top it off, I {Read More}
It’s time for me to share Peaks and Valleys: Adventures in Training Week 5, 6 & 7, my third series of training logs from 2015.

I am so ready for a magical weekend in Walt Disney World! These past few weeks were filled with a lot of work and work travel to Texas. I am definitely ready for a mini vacation and some relaxation. I have to admit that I’m still not completely unpacked from my work trip and I don’t have any race costumes planned. Tonight, when I get home from work, I have a feeling I will feel a bit frenzied with packing up my running gear {Read More}
