On the Facebook page yesterday, I asked what I should write about this weekend. I wanted it to be running related, but wasn’t sure what direction to go. Laura (hi, Laura!) asked if I would write about burnout at the end of a long training cycle. Since I get this EVERY TIME I train for …
It’s rough right now. I don’t think you can see it any other way. No matter your political views, your faith or your world view, we are all feeling it.

Honestly, I don’t think much about aging. The small lines appearing around my eyes don’t bother me (and I’m terrified of needles so Botox is OUT), I’m OK with the few pounds I’ve gained, and I adore the wisdom and experience that have made me who I am today. I wouldn’t go back to my …
I can hardly believe it, but RnR Savannah half marathon is 3 weeks away! I am excited and nervous (mostly excited) and I wanted to give a quick training update. This last week I didn’t get in all the mileage I wanted but it was for a great reason. I had the opportunity to grab …
So, as promised, here goes part 4 of my What No One Tells You About Running Series! Today we are focusing on CLOTHES. And specifically, what NOT to wear when your run. We are very lucky now that there are TONS of great options for runners. I think back to the days when our fore-mothers …
