four reasons to run a marathon

If it seems like everyone around you is running a marathon, that’s because…they are! According to Running USA, there were 232,600 women (including me!) that finished a marathon last year. Participation in marathons is at a record high, and numbers will likely continue to grow. If you have been thinking about joining the masses and […]

5 Marathon Training Mistakes...& How to

I already talked about a few things I love about running. For this Friday Five honoring National Running Day, I’m going to share five mistakes I made when I trained for my first marathon.

How to Train with a Loved One

how to train for a race with a loved one

This post first appeared on Women’s Running, but as people get into their training seasons, I thought it was worth sharing it here as well. 🙂 I probably should’ve read a post on how to train with a loved one before K and I decided to “train together” last summer. And yes, the quotation marks […]

NCR Trail Marathon Recap

NCR Trail Marathon

Yes, this is a marathon recap (the NCR Trail Marathon Recap, to be exact). Yes, I ran a marathon two weeks after running Richmond. Yes, it was a trail marathon. Yes, two marathons in 14 days means I’m now a Marathon Maniac. And yes, I know I said I would NEVER run another trail marathon. Turns […]

Richmond Marathon Recap

November 18, 2014 By: Courtney @ Eat Pray Run DC61 Comments

Here it is! My Richmond Marathon Recap — if you missed yesterday’s post, that’s a great place to start. We left off with us at about mile 10 and I’d just shed my ear wrap and gloves. I was feeling pretty dang good, to be honest. Happy, moving at a great pace and excited that […]

The Secret Marathon

March 31, 2014 By: Courtney @ Eat Pray Run DC44 Comments

I ran a marathon this past weekend. A trail marathon at that. Yep. I ran a secret marathon…well, it actually wasn’t really a big secret. Plenty of my friends and family knew I was running but I did not announce it on the blog. Why, you ask? Well to be honest, I felt a bit […]

Speedwork on the treadmill

August 13, 2013 By: project30in201210 Comments

I created a workout aimed at increasing speed and eliminating boredom on the dreadmill treadmill. I usually do my runs outside because I loathe the treadmill. But sometimes you just have to take it indoors. Give this 40 minute workout a shot when you need to be inside but want to do some speedwork! I […]
