We are now 10 days into 2012 and I haven’t talked about goals yet… *gasp* I have a lot of goals for myself, and specifically to be talked about on this blog since it is a running blog after all, a lot of running and athletic goals. I used to sit down at the end [...]

My List
This past weekend was the Philadelphia Marathon. When I would talk to runners over the weekend about the various races going on, I would always bring that one up and say “it’s on my list.” That got me thinking, what is exactly on this “list” I always talk about? Although it has changed some since [...]
Friday Favorites: 2,000
I reached 2,000 miles for 2011 today! I couldn’t ask for a better week to get me to that number. Of course there was the trail race on Sunday that was a nice push to 2,000. I love that Brazen Racing puts their pictures up for free! All you have to do is dig around [...]
Two Fears Down: My First Yoga Class
I am very lucky to work at a place that offers many different varieties of workout classes. Spinning, boot camp, zumba…. and yoga to name a few. I used to use the “not being able to afford a yoga studio” as my excuse for not addressing this fear, but I knew once I started [...]
1,859.7
Earlier this week I was looking at my workout log and realized how close I am to breaking 2,000 miles for the year. The past 2 years I have broken through that number, but in 2009 it wasn’t until December and in 2010 it wasn’t until November. Looking at this number got me thinking, what [...]
2011 Goals Check In… Q3
Oh hey, it’s October! That means we are over 3/4 of the way done with 2011! Wow that went by fast. If you have been reading for a while, you know I like to check in with my goals quarterly to see where I am at, see if there is anything I want to change [...]
Facing My Fears
Once upon a time I was scared to run. Then I faced my fear, laced up my running shoes, and look at me now. I simply cannot imagine my life without running in it. I heart running. Running has become a rather comfortable activity for me. I feel at home, like myself, relaxed and happy [...]
Goals for the Off Season
Just because my off season came earlier than planned and just because it is my off season from marathons, doesn’t mean I don’t have goals to go with it. As always writing my goals down for me to look back on is always a good way to keep myself accountable and help myself achieve them. [...]
SFM Goals
It’s getting closer! I have been saying all along this training cycle that SFM was going to be a “training run” for me, basically meaning I wasn’t going to go balls to the walls and run as hard as I can on the course since I have my eye on an A race (Portland!) [...]
That’s Me!
I previously mentioned that I was going to be running the Las Vegas Marathon this year because of a running blogger conference that is currently in the works. What I didn’t mention is that SkinnyRunner asked if I wanted to be one of the speakers…. and I said YES! Ahhhhh! Now it’s official… I am [...]
