I've turned over a new breakfast leaf, and switched up my usual oatmeal combos with smoothies. I'm now anxiously awaiting my new Vitamix, because my old blender was unhappy with the amount of frozen fruit being thrown into it everyday. Peaches & Green Smoothie Serves 1 Calories: 450 kCal Carbs: 64g Fat: 17g Protein: 25g …
A couple of months ago, some of the executives at work were harassing me about my running. I keep a race countdown on my office whiteboard, whenever they asked what I was doing that weekend my answer was either running or racing. I've been pretty open on here that while I've run for about 5 …
Last fall I signed up to do a cross-training run one evening with Philadelphia Runner, Be Well Philly, and Unite Fitness. A huge group of runners literally ran through the streets of Philadelphia stopping at different tourist attractions to do push-ups, squats, burpees, and walking lunges. It was fantastic. I sweat a ton, and made …
After finally writing my WDW Marathon recap (which was pretty sad, sorry guys) I decided to take a look at the calendar. I've got 2 races coming up faster than I thought! Hurray, bring on training again 😋 Cherry Blossom 10 Miler I've got just under 11 weeks until this race. I have a big …

As much as I initially wanted to recap every mile, and every picture, the more I tried to write it, the less I could make it happen. Overall, the weekend was better than I imagined. I got to meet an awesome group of Twitter friends, got to see some wonderful friends from work who I …

Sorry guys, still no WDW Marathon recap. I knew getting back into the swing of things was going to be tough, especially because this was a big week at work, but it's been a much more difficult feat than I imagined. My first day back in the office, other than a couple of restroom breaks, …
As much as I loved every single minute (okay, there were a few minutes I could have done without) of marathon weekend, writing my recap is not happening quickly. Between being exhausted, and it being a really busy week at work, I'm probably not going to complete it until this weekend. I know, bad blogger. …
As I prepare to curl up and try to get a good night of sleep before getting up at a time others in the hotel will be just coming home, I'm catching up on all of the amazing support from everyone. And, I'm sure you're not surprised, I'm tearing up. I cannot begin to describe …
I cannot believe that in 24 hours Karen and I will be at the starting line for our very first marathon. If I said I wasn't emotional, I'd be lying. I've come pretty close to crying no less than 10 times a day for the last few days. But not because I'm sad or I'm …
