A few weeks ago I received an e-mail from KT Tape that said this: “In anticipation of the upcoming 2016 NYC Marathon, I wanted to provide you with the opportunity to speak with three-time Olympian and NYC (2009) and Boston (2014) Marathon champion Meb Keflezighi, in advance of the race.” Ummm, what?!? Are you kidding! YES … Continue reading
This past weekend I attended an hour long Strength Training for Runners class at my local running store and while I wasn’t particularly a fan of the trainer who led it (I’m pretty sure it was his first time doing something like this), let me tell you I am sitting on my couch writing this … Continue reading
I just wanted to post a quick update since the last I shared on the Goofy Challenge was my concerns about my knee pain and not being sure if I could finish (or even start!) these races. Well, if you don’t follow me on social media – I DID IT! Somehow my knee held up … Continue reading
I went for a run this morning. It didn’t go well. My last run was 6 miles this past Saturday. I walked crying from mile 4.5-6 because the pain in my knee was so bad. After several days of rest, foam rolling and icing I decided to go on a short test run this morning … Continue reading
Happy New Year! This morning Jason and I started off the New Year with the 2nd Annual Rogue Run Club New Year’s Day bRUNch, a 3 mile run along the water and then brunch at our favorite Mexican place (featuring table side guacamole & margaritas!). I can’t think of a better way to start off … Continue reading

This post is long overdue, I’ve had it partially written for awhile, but it definitely took me some time to process my thoughts on the Marine Corps Marathon (it’s been almost a month already!) and I wanted to share some of them as I begin to prepare for my next marathon in January. Honestly, posts like this … Continue reading

This will be my 5th year in a row doing the Wine & Dine Half Marathon, it’s actually probably one of my favorite races (maybe only second to the Walt Disney World Marathon), which may have something to do with the fact that it was my first race EVER back in 2011! Since I’ve done … Continue reading
