I've said it about a million times, but it's been a tough, weird year. There have been a number of times that counting my sorrows has been much easier than counting my blessings, and the last couple of weeks have felt like a big test, which I have possibly failed. Every night, however, I curled …
I love running. This is the first year, where from the very beginning, I've been able to say that. It's my happy place, my therapist, my meditation, and my confidence boost. Although I've been blogging since February, it's only been within the last few months that I've started sharing my blog posts with my friends …

My experience with the Runner's World Summer Run Streak was awesome. My low miles got much faster, I felt stronger overall, and it kept me focused on a tangible goal. What's a mile a day? Right?! When they announced their Holiday Run Streak, I immediately wanted in again. This probably sounds crazy since I live …

I've mentioned a few times recently, that basically through Disney Marathon weekend my life would be nuts. I've spent more time in hotels in the last month than I have at home.

DRUMROLL PLEASE.... Congrats Jennifer! I will DM you with the code for your subscription. For everyone else, …
I've always been completely open and honest on my blog. I pride myself on it, partially because the idea of lying or keeping anything from my readers seems silly. I don't even know most of you in "real life" but also because I'd really only be lying to myself. With that, I'm sharing my goals …

This weekend is Philly Marathon weekend, and I could only be more excited if I were actually running it. I know what you're thinking, "wait you're writing a post about a race you're not even running?", and yes. But I have a good reason: No, I will not be donning my old MHS cheering uniform …
