Eek – marathon training starts tomorrow, y’all! The great thing is that I have a build up period – which will be helpful as I acclimate to the DC humidity. Woof. As you may remember, I will still be running (and even doing a couple of races) in between now and when I start training for […]
Ten Years Later…
This weekend marked my ten year law school reunion. I can’t believe it’s ten years since I’ve graduated from law school! I spent the weekend in Charlottesville, catching up with old friends and enjoying one of my happy places. I did not run while I was in Charlottesville, but I danced my butt off! 🙂 […]
Building a Business Wardrobe
When I went back into an office after almost two years of working from home, I was concerned about building a business wardrobe. I realized it would not be appropriate to simply wear my running clothes into the office but I also didn’t want to spend a ton of money. I have figured out a […]
Back in Business – Training Recap!
Hi there! After being sidelined with the plague last week, I was happy to be feeling better this week and be able to get in some runs. I traveled a bit, and was able to get in a fun run in New York. As you may remember, I will still be running (and even doing […]
The Week of Almost No Running
Hi there! Well, this week’s post title pretty much says it all. I basically did no running this week – I wrote last Sunday how I was wiped after returning from San Francisco. Well, I wasn’t just wiped. I ended up being very sick all week, which is pretty unusual for me. I missed two […]

While in San Francisco last week, I was able to cross a bucket list item off my running list: I got to experience running the Golden Gate Bridge. The Golden Gate Bridge is 1.7 miles across and connects San Francisco to Marin County and Wine Country. Running it was amazing but I was a bit […]
Running in San Francisco – Training Recap
This past week was busy, busy, busy. I attended (and presented at) a conference in San Francisco. I did a lot of running in San Francisco, which was awesome! It was a good trip and a great conference but I am wiped out and need a couple of nights of good sleep to feel back […]
Tips for Running in a Major Metro Area
I have lived in Washington, D.C. for the past 8+ years. In those 8 years, I’ve spent a ton of time running IN (and near, but primarily in) the city. I also travel for work quite a bit and have run in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami and Atlanta (among others). […]
A 5K PR + Easter: Training Recap
He is Risen! I hope that everyone enjoys a lovely Easter Sunday! I attended a sunrise service down at the Lincoln Memorial and it was lovely. This week brings more travel, as I head off to San Francisco for a conference on Tuesday. This is my fifth year attending this particular conference and I always […]
Maintenance Training Recap, Week 2
Hello from Chicago! I’m here for a few days this week for work and excited to get in at least one run while I’m here! As you may remember, I will still be running (and even doing a couple of races) in between now and when I start training for the Berlin Marathon. But I’ll primarily […]
