So I told you guys a few weeks ago that I had been chosen as an ambassador for the Zooma Cape Cod race this fall. I finally got my ambassador discount code so I wanted to share it in case anyone is interested in joining me! The event is Saturday, September 27th and offers a … Continue reading
Hello Friends! So if you’ve been reading this blog for any amount of time you probably know that aside from Disney my other favorite place in the world is Cape Cod! Jason and I have a place on the Cape and are fortunate enough to spend much of the summer there and (between you and … Continue reading
Ok, so are you ready for a break from Dopey related posts yet??! I didn’t write any sort of “2014 Goals” post around the New Year because I just felt like my focus was on completing the Dopey Challenge at the time and I didn’t want to look past that to the rest of the … Continue reading
The key to completing a back- to-back race challenge lies in the between race recovery! We’ve probably all got our at-home run recovery routine down pat, but being “on the road” for a destination race may take a little extra planning to get the same type of recovery you’re used to. While I’m getting ready … Continue reading
1 week from the time this post is published (6:15am!) I’ll be crossing the starting line of my 48.6 mile Dopey Challenge journey! The training is done, the trip plans are made, my costume is ready (just 1 for the 10k) and all that’s left to do is keep an eye on the weather and … Continue reading
I’m not sure if I had mentioned it before or not, but a few weeks ago some friends and I entered the lottery for the Cherry Blossom 10 Mile Run and this morning we found out WE GOT IN! I’ve heard great things about this race and had been looking for another race in DC … Continue reading
One month from today I’ll be halfway through the Dopey Challenge! (Race wise, certainly not mileage wise…I’ll only have 9.3 miles out of 48.6 miles done!) This past week I did a simulated “mini-Dopey” as part of my training running 3 miles Wednesday, 6 miles Friday, 9 miles Saturday and 18 miles Sunday for a … Continue reading
I’m taking an extra rest day since the arch of my foot is really bothering me after my crazy wind blown half marathon this weekend so naturally I thought it would make a good post! Really, what runner doesn’t like a good post about feet, right??! Since I started running I’ve struggled with occasional arch … Continue reading
This year will be my 3rd Thanksgiving as a “runner” and while I’m pretty sure I’ve gone out for a “pre-stuff-my-face-run” the past 2 years, I’ve never officially “Turkey Trotted” or “Gobble Galloped” or taken part in an organized Thanksgiving Day race. This year I’ll be joining 15,000 others at the Manchester Road Race in Manchester, … Continue reading
So, when we last left off we were at the starting line! (And if you missed how we got there you can checkout W&D: The Meet-UP and W&D: Before the Starting Line!) I have to admit I sort of look at the Wine & Dine Half Marathon as a good “excuse” to go to Disney … Continue reading
