Motivational Monday #30 27 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
This is the last Motivational Monday of August... can you believe it's almost September already?! I feel like the summer just flew by way too fast. But I'm very much looking forward to fall. Fall mean...
A 16-miler 26 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
Not sure why I was nervous about my long run today, and it turns out there was no reason to be--I did it! I set the alarm for 6:20, so that I could be out the door at sunrise (6:50). I got dressed an...
Post-marathon plans 25 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
Sure enough, I was asleep the second my head hit the pillow last night. I was SO TIRED from the very long, sleepless night in the camper. I slept until about 6:30 this morning, and then I got out of b...
Slow's BBQ 24 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
Camping last night turned out to be kind of a bust. Not awful, but not the greatest night for camping. It rained all evening. At around 9:00, the rain let up, so we tried to make a campfire. We were a...
A #KINDAwesome review and giveaway 23 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am

Motivational Monday #29 20 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
Today marks the four year anniversary of when I started to lose weight (this final time). I'd attempted to lose weight dozens of times before, and I really thought it would be no different this time. ...
Cumulative fatigue 19 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
Wow. When I started the Hansons' Marathon Method training, I thought I knew what it would feel like to accumulate fatigue as a runner. Multiply that tenfold, and that's pretty much how I felt during t...
Anniversary date 18 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
Last night's date with Jerry ended up being so much fun! As soon as Jerry got home from work, I gave him the key chains, and sure enough, he laughed until he wheezed. Definitely a big hit. We went to...
