It’s week 3ish of my return to running from my hip adductor injury, and I’m pleased to share that I’m feeling pretty good. I still don’t feel 100%, but I’m feeling so grateful to be back at running! We had some snow this week (ugh!) but on Sunday when it…

Happy Friday! I’m joining the Fit Friday Five linkup today to share Five Fitness-related Favorites. Say that five times fast amiright? Now that my leg is nearly recovered, I’m feeling like I am finally getting back in the groove of my fitness routine. I’m back to running (somewhat) regularly, doing…

Like my last blog post about cornbread a million years ago, I should start this post with two disclaimers: One: Like my last cornbread recipe, this is not “southern style” savory cornbread. I prefer my cornbread on the sweeter side, so that’s what this is. It goes great with a…

Our weather this week was another wild ride – we had 70 DEGREES on Monday with sun, then it cooled down to 30s, then went up again, and we’re due for cold and snow today. And I clearly have 3 little ones, because all I thought of was, The weather…

Are you still injured? Are you back at running? How are you feeling? Those are all questions I get asked. And the answer, is that I don’t know! I decided to give running a try this week, but slowly/short runs only. Meaning, 2 runs – a 1 mile and a…

For me, running has always been my key to my sanity. Crazy week at work? Start the day with a run. Feeling anxious? Go for a run. Too much going on at home? Get some me time with a run. The past two weeks, however, I’ve had to adapt. Be…

Continue reading →: First Zero Mileage Week In Years
Well, I did it. A full week with no running. Did I like it? No. Would I like to continue doing this? No! But I know that I need to take some time off now so that hopefully I can be back sooner than if I keep going through the…

Fun fact – back in my PR agency days, we had to come up with creative ways to say “Super Bowl.” We could never use the terminology Super Bowl when promoting any specials/promotions/deals, etc. Because of the NFL’s strict trademark rules, we had to say things like, “The Big Game”…
Hello,
I’m Melissa
Welcome to I Crashed The Web — proof that I’ve been oversharing online since the early days of blogging. It started as a blog (back when that was cool), morphed into a mom blog (when that was cool), and now it’s my happy place for all the things I love: running, baking, reading, traveling and life with my family of five.
