I am in the process of adjusting my goals for my goal half marathon (the B&A Trail Half in March) – and it’s scary. I’ve never had to adjust my goals mid-training cycle to a faster goal. But after besting my race goal for March a couple of weekends ago at the Phoenix Women’s Half […]
B&A Trail Half Marathon Training, Week 7
Last week was a bit rough – but this week was MUCH better. I just was on my game, running-wise and mentally and that felt great. I also had an incredible weekend, including participating in the Women’s March here in DC and I am just in a much better headspace. Anyway, on the this week’s half […]
B&A Trail Half Marathon Training Recap, Week 6
This week was hard. It was emotionally draining for a variety of reasons and I think that bled over into my runs. I got my runs in but a couple were a touch shorter than they should’ve been and I honestly just felt kind of blah most of the week. I’m happy that I seemed […]
B&A Trail Half Marathon Training Recap, Week 4
Happy New Year! I hope everyone welcomed in 2017 safely and with loved ones. We were home watching football (Roll Tide!) and I have to say, NYE in sweats is kinda my jam! Anyway, on the this week’s training recap. Each week during this training cycle (I’m training for the B&A Trail Half Marathon – a […]
B&A Trail Half Marathon Training Recap, Week 3
Merry Christmas! I hope everyone is having a relaxing day celebrating or just enjoying the day if you do not celebrate. As for me, this week didn’t go quite as planned – I cut a run because of hip pain and so that was a bit of a bummer but I know enough to know […]
B&A Trail Half Marathon Training Recap, Week 2
Week two of my B&A Trail Half Marathon training is in the books. This week was fun because I got to experience multiple seasons during my different runs. If you are on the east coast, you know what I mean! Each week during this training cycle, I will share how my training went and what the […]
B&A Trail Half Marathon Training Recap, Week 1
Well, hello there, new training cycle. I am back at it, having picked my spring goal race – now that I know that I am headed to Berlin to run the marathon in the fall, I have decided to chase a half marathon PR this spring. Since 2017 will involve a relatively expensive trip, I’ve […]
Running for Ronald McDonald House Charities
When I decided I wanted to run the Chicago marathon, I didn’t want to leave it up to chance. Once I decided that I was going to be running for Ronald McDonald House Charities, I was a bit nervous – would I make my fundraising goal? What would the experience be like? Well, I had an […]
Review of the Hanson Marathon Method
Now that I’ve completed a full marathon training cycle using the Hanson Marathon Method, I’m ready to share my thoughts on the plan. The Hanson Marathon Method is a training plan that is built around the concept of cumulative fatigue – the idea that running on tired legs day after day, week after week over the […]
Chicago Marathon Training Recap, Week 16
Eek! Race day is TWO weeks away, y’all. I can’t believe it. It’s time to recap week 16 of Chicago Marathon training. As I get closer to the race, I get more and more tired, lol. I am definitely ready for race day and ready for a rest. But I’m feeling strong and fit, which is a very […]
