Last year, I had three goals for my blog {post here}. Here is how the year stacked up and the status of these three goals: Goal #1: Focus on consistency and frequency of blog posts. Since starting my new job in November, my blogging has gone by the wayside. I want my readers to keep coming back for more and the only way to do that is to be more reliable. Now, to set an achievable goal, I would like to post {Read More}
I can’t believe that another year is coming to a close. With it being New Year’s Eve, I love taking a look back at all the wonderful experiences running brought me in 2014! Many thanks to Amanda, also known as Miss Zippy, for hosting this annual link-up! Best race experience? The best race experience of my year was at the Disney Princess Half Marathon weekend.

In fact, I only have two events that I am committed to right now and that is somewhat refreshing. While I love to run {Read More}
In addition to my running goals for 2014 {still trying to sort those out…stay tuned}, I have personal, professional, and blogging goals. I find that goals help keep me grounded and push me to be a better version of myself. I thought I would share a few of the goals I have for Lisa Runs for Cupcakes in the upcoming year. 1.) Focus on consistency and frequency of blog posts. Since starting my new job in November, my blogging has gone {Read More}
Looking back at the beginning of 2013, I wrote a post setting out three running related goals. For me, the New Year is the perfect time of year to sit down and outline your hopes and dreams for the next twelve months. Why three? Well, when it comes to running, I like to keep things manageable. A laundry list of goals isn’t going to get me very far, at least not the way that I tend to operate. I need goals {Read More}
