Yay, you ran a marathon! Now what?

December 3, 2013 By: Courtney @ Eat Pray Run DC12 Comments

After I finished the Richmond Marathon, I instantly had a sense of accomplishment. I felt so proud and so excited about what I’d just done. However, as most runners know, soon after you cross that finish line you begin thinking about what’s next. The day I ran my marathon, I swore I’d be one and […]

30 Minute Healthy Chicken Fried Rice

November 6, 2013 By: Courtney @ Eat Pray Run DC7 Comments

Sometimes you just want to order out for dinner. Nothing will do but Chinese takeout. I often feel that way, but try to be judicious in my ordering out expenses and will happily cook instead if I can. Tuesday night found me with a thawed chicken thigh, a frozen bag of mixed veggies and rice. […]

Why I Heart PT

September 26, 2013 By: project30in20127 Comments

It’s no secret that I love physical therapy (PT). After injuring my ankles, I finally decided to stop self-diagnosing and to go see a medical professional. Best decision I’ve made during this whole cycle of marathon training. I thought I’d share a bit about why I love PT so much and what happens when I […]

Five for Friday, race edition!

September 13, 2013 By: project30in201213 Comments

Happy Friday! I started the day off with a really fun run with my BGR running group. I paced a couple of the ladies and we finished with fartleks. So fun! Today’s Five for Friday is all about the races filling out my calendar for the rest of the year. Be sure to link up […]

Five for Friday Link Up!

September 6, 2013 By: project30in20128 Comments

Happy Friday! Isn’t it amazing how short weeks often seem the longest? I, for one, am very happy that Friday is hear and am excited about another jam packed weekend! My very first Run Commute! I ran home from work on Wednesday, and while the run was pretty…awful, the views were fantastic. I would definitely […]

3 ways to become a fast(er) runner!

August 28, 2013 By: project30in201233 Comments

First things first. I am by FAR nowhere near a speed demon. I am still actively working on improving my running form, becoming a stronger runner and yes, getting faster. But because I would like to run faster, I’ve actually tried to figure out how to do so, with varying degrees of success. So I […]

This week’s track workout

July 18, 2013 By: project30in201211 Comments

Last week, I skipped the track workout and I can actually say I kind of missed it. This week I was excited / nervous to head back out for some speed work in the middle of the crazy heat wave we’ve been experiencing. On a positive note, speed work starts at 0 dark 30 (actually 5:45 […]

Crunchy Chicken Drumsticks – no fryer needed!

July 10, 2013 By: project30in20126 Comments

Over the weekend, I wanted to finally use some drumsticks that had been hanging out in my freezer for awhile. I decided I wanted them to be crunchy but just could not get down with the idea of frying something since it was so.stinking.hot outside! I also in general hate frying and try to avoid […]

Does speed work (really) work?

July 5, 2013 By: project30in201211 Comments

Short answer: YES.   As I wrote about earlier, I’ve been trying to run negative splits on a good number (most, but not all) of my runs. And while I’ve only been focusing on speed work for three weeks, I have to say that I do think it is absolutely helping to make me more […]
