I have to admit that I've been struggling this week. Since racing under bad conditions (that I admittedly put myself in) last weekend, my body has been revolting. I've been tired all week. I haven't been able to get myself up to run in the mornings, and work has been absolutely nuts (11-12 hour days …

Nope, still no recap
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, …
Three on Thursday: It might be raining, but it’s a whole lot sunnier over here!
Happy times are back! Apologies for being Debbie Downer last week. Three Things that make Me Happy 1) I've been doing some shopping lately, knowing the fall and winter running seasons are upon is.

Three Things that make Me Happy 1) I am potentially inappropriately obsessed with PB2. I seriously ate it 3 times today, …

Deflating defeat and August Goals
It's the end of the month, which means its time to take a quick look back, and set intentions for the next month. July was a crazy month. I became a temporary, permanent resident of Philadelphia. I enjoyed some delicious, but not the healthiest, meals. I finished my 6th half marathon in some crazy heat …
Therapy Thursday: Suck it up, sister
I'm horrible at keeping up with blogging in general lately, but certainly keeping to my usual posts. Therapy Thursday has been lacking, but tonight, its with myself in mind. I'm on week #2 of 4 of 6 day a week travel. I leave my temporary apartment in Birmingham on Sunday morning, and return Friday night. …
Please pardon the interruption
I've been eerily quiet both on my blog and Twitter this week, and I feel like I need to explain. It's kind of true, but only at work. As I've mentioned before my job can be really crazy, and for the next couple of weeks, it will live up to that: - My next 3 …
