Rock ‘n’ Roll Chicago – Part 3: The Half Marathon

I’ve already covered the expo in part 1 and the 5K and #WeRunSocial meet up in part 2. Now it’s time for part 3 – the grand finale known as the half marathon! We all knew that Sunday would be a very hot day. The only saving grace was that the race started at 6:30 […]

Rock ‘n’ Roll Chicago – Part 1: The Expo

I’m still trying to wrap my head around my epic weekend. This was my first official “runcation” and it did not disappoint!

Gone for a Run Virtual Race Series – Road Shark Run Virtual 5 Mile Race

Gone For a Run is an awesome website for runners. They sell everything from running gear and apparel to bib/medal displays and frames. In fact, I purchased my current medal display from the website last year.  Although they have great gifts and items for runners, their virtual races have become very popular. This year they have already hosted […]

I went streaking this summer..

After starting and quickly stopping 2 other run streaks last year, I’m happy to say that my mom and I completed the 2015 Runner’s World Summer Run Streak! Some days it was easy, some days it was hard, but overall I’m happy that I did it! Source I think that Runner’s World holds a run […]
