Happy Friday, well actually, Happy Good Friday! I was actually born on Good Friday so I have always had a special link to this day 🙂 How was March for you? I had a pretty busy month so I’m happy that April is looking less exciting. I’m looking forward to using April to recharge, that’s […]

5 New Things I Tried During Marathon Training
Happy Wednesday! Now that the marathon is behind me I thought it might be good to talk about some new products that I tried during my training cycle. I always think that a new training cycle is an opportunity to try new products (within reason). If something works for you that’s great, but if there […]
Rite Aid Cleveland Half Marathon Training Recap – Week 1
Happy Sunday and Happy Palm Sunday if you celebrate the Easter season. I don’t have too much to report this week as it was mainly a recovery week after the Shamrock Marathon. I decided to take the entire week off from running. I have to say, it felt good having 7 straight days off from […]
5 Reasons To Try Cryotherapy
Happy Friday! I’m so happy that only a few hours stand between me and the weekend. Even though I’ve been in recovery mode, it’s been a long week. I was so tired on Monday/Tuesday. Work has also been pretty busy this week. I’m going off topic this week for Friday Five because I want to […]
Yuengling Shamrock 8K and Marathon Race Recap
This year I was lucky enough to be picked as a social media ambassador for the Shamrock Marathon. Although my race entry was free for this race, all thoughts and opinions are my own. You know I always #keepitreal! Happy Wednesday! This weekend I participated in the Shamrock 8K and Marathon. It was a fun […]
Yuengling Shamrock Marathon Training Recap – Week 12
Happy Sunday! Well this is it – my last weekly training recap for the Yuengling Shamrock Marathon. It’s been 12 weeks of ups and downs, but overall I was happy with this training cycle. If I ever do another marathon, I think I’ll stick with a 12 week training plan. Although this training cycle is […]
Yuengling Shamrock Marathon Training Recap – Week 11
Happy Sunday! Is it just me or did this week seem really long? Daytime Savings time certainly didn’t help either. It will take me about 2-3 days to get used to the time difference. Although I’m happy that there will be more daylight hours after I get off work, I’m not looking forward to it […]
March 2018 Goals
Happy Wednesday! I hope that everyone is having a great week so far. Here in Connecticut we’re expecting another Nor’easter today. Right now it’s not too bad, just more of a rain/snow mix, but we’re supposed to get 12 inches of snow – ugh! I don’t mind winter at all but I’m not a huge […]
Tunes Tuesday 3.6 – Shamrock Marathon Jams
Happy Tuesday! It seems like February went by in the blink of an eye and now we’re suddenly in March! Since it’s the first Tuesday of the month that means its time for another edition of Tunes Tuesday! Today’s theme is “Pump Up Jams” but since my marathon is less than two weeks away (eek!), […]
Yuengling Shamrock Marathon Training Recap – Week 10
Happy Sunday and what a weird weekend it has been! A Nor’easter came rolling through on Thursday night. I really didn’t think it would be bad but then we lost power at 3:30pm on Friday afternoon and it didn’t come back on until 5:45am on Saturday morning. Thankfully we have extra blankets so we weren’t […]
