#GoTheDist July 2018
Where on earth did July go? A theme for the month was quality over quantity. Although I fell off pace on run mileage due to plantar fascitis flare and my first running fall, I had some really good workouts. I Keep Running
Walking through MLB history and listening to my body, week of 7.23
Definitely light on the running this week as I recovered from my trip and slide. On other notes: The Sarah Marie Design Studio shirt came and I was initially excited to see it’s a Bella Canvas shirt as I love Keep Running
#NYRRRetro and week of 7.8
Not a full running week, but the foot felt good and I really think my body is not meant to do regular back to back days. Lungs, sure. Legs, no, not yet. I’m OK with that. I really do need Keep Running
Celebrating the work of Front Runners and Achilles
a double race weekend, something I enjoyed but am in no particular hurry to repeat. This week’s recap/mileage is almost entirely the races as, as I suspected when I wasn’t taking photos last Saturday, I was coming down with something. Keep Running
#Queens10K
I love Flushing Meadows-Corona Park so despite the long haul out there, I was looking forward to running this race. It also happened to be “free” as I cashed in my New Balance rewards for a bib. Way more excited Keep Running
Women Run the World, 2018 edition
I love the Mini! As I thought about a goal, I knew it was going to be a weird one. My 10K outdoor PR is from Rockland Lake, flat as a pancake on a beautiful November afternoon. On the other Keep Running
#PopularBkHalf Recovery meets #ItalyRunNYC
Not so much physical recovery-I was good there pretty quickly, but mental recovery. In short, I needed (and got) a vacation. More on that later. As I thought about goals for the Italy Run, I looked back at my 5M Keep Running
Race Recap: Popular Brooklyn Half
Short version: PR by six minutes and change and I ran the entire thing! Major thank you to Caryn and Rachel who were most definitely my pre-race cheering squad and ears. Longer version: while I don’t mind running in the Keep Running
Training, week of 3.26, 2018 Runs, and March #GoTheDist
March marked my fifth month in a row at running 50 or more miles, and my first ever crossing the 60 mile marker at 62.68. A lot of that had to do with one hell of a close to the Keep Running
Twice Frozen Penguin
which sounds like I’m a crazy carnivore! NYCRuns’ Frozen Penguin holds a special place in my heart as my first 5K. So as soon as it was announced, I signed up for today. I realized I’ve only raced four 5Ks Keep Running
