Last Saturday marked my first half of 2015. The Dick Lytie Spring Classic. I have been looking forward to this run since last year, but up until I started running the course, I was not sure how it was going to go. I actually didn’t even sign up to run it until Monday! After the […]
Tis the time of year for green beer and leprechauns! That means it is back to Tanners in Kimberly for the St. Pat’s Run! 2 years ago, my running partner Matt and I did this run in single digit temperatures and last year we missed it as we were all in Arizona for spring training […]
Pi Day of the century was upon us! For all the math geeks out there, rejoice! 3/14/15 is here! In honor of the fun day, the kids of Leonardo da Vinci school for Gifted Learners here in Green Bay put in hours upon hours of work and planning to create and execute the 1st annual […]
Another crazy week has come and gone! One of my favorite quotes lately has been “Get comfortable with Being uncomfortable” This past week I definitely got out of my comfort zone and tried a few new things! Last week on Thursday, my friend Colleen invited me to Bootcamp at her gym. 1st class was free and […]
Playing catch up here on a few posts from the last few weeks so bear with me! 2 half marathons, a marathon relay plus long hours at work have made the last few weeks a little hectic… hopefully over the next few days I can actually get caught up on some posts! anyhow…. After running […]
As some of you may have noticed, last week there was a new badge added to the sidebar of my blog. I was approached by ENERGYBits to become one of their Brand Ambassadors! I am excited to let you know that I said YES! Back in April, someone told me about these as a energy source and […]
Yes, that is correct… after growing up in Michigan, still traveling back there on a fairly regular basis and only living a few hours away, up until now, I had not run a Half Marathon in the state! A few months ago, I saw a Facebook post about the Marquette Marathon and figured I’d check […]
Last year’s Cheesehead Marathon was a tough one (last years race details can be found here). After the brutal sun last year, I could only hope for better weather this year. I wish I could say that this year was better. There may not have been beating sun in a cloudless sky like last […]
Any morning that you can wake up with the sound of the waves less than 50 yards from your front door, you know is going to be a good day! The waves also so relaxing that we didn’t wake up as early as we originally planned! Hitting the trail at 7am can’t happen if you […]
Last summer I did my first ever trail run – a 5k just a few miles from home that ended by running up the tubing hill. This year it was time to up the ante! The Cliffrunner 10 trail run down at High Cliff State Park was the chosen target. Before this weekend, I had […]
