There are two types of people in this world – those that like pickles, and those that don’t. If you happen to fall into the latter category, then this post isn’t for you. You may as well stop reading right now and just come back in a few days when I publish a new post … Continue reading
So if you’ve been seeing my Weekly Training Recaps you may notice that well…there’s not all that much to recap! Since we’ve moved I’ve sort of been struggling to get anything other than a few runs a week in (and this week I only ran twice!), not to mention I haven’t been to yoga once … Continue reading
Today marks 1 month until the New York City Marathon! That means 1 more long run, lots of time spent with my foam roller, endlessly refilling my water bottle to stay hydrated and of course…some final fundraising for North Shore Animal League! Over the summer I reached my initial fundraising goal of $3,000 (THANK YOU!) and … Continue reading

This week definitely felt like the start of summer now that work has slowed down a little for Jason! We made a batch of homemade peanut butter chip ice cream… …we grilled for dinner… …got native strawberries for strawberry shortcake… …and spent a day outside at the pool! Madison clearly has us well trained, … Continue reading
I’ve always wanted to run a race in the Boston area, so when the Runner’s World Heartbreak Hill Half event was announced awhile back it was definitely one I was interested in. Unfortunately I hate making plans in May/ June since Jason’s schedule is so unpredictable this time of year so I never registered. When I … Continue reading
Since I’ve been a little (ok, a lot) off track the past few weeks I’m hoping it will help if I share some summer goals that I can look back at to help keep me motivated and accountable this summer. Summers are a little less structured for me, so sometimes it’s hard to stay focused, … Continue reading
