At the beginning of 2021, I set out to read 36 books. Easy, I thought, 3 books a month. (Note: When I say “read” I mean a combination of listening to audiobooks and reading. I do about 50/50, depending on the week and what I have planned.) As the year…

Continue reading →: Happy Holidays – Weekly Run Down Edition
Happy holidays and Merry Christmas! I can’t believe Christmas is OVER, and I’m trying not to feel the pang that often hits me after the holiday season. Instead, let’s focus on all that has been wonderful and all that is running-related! This week, I kept up my unplanned running streak,…

Continue reading →: Warm Holiday Season
Man, is it really nearly the end of December? While I’m ready for the holiday season, some time off of work and with the family (and no school for the kids!), it doesn’t feel like the holidays. I’m not going home for Christmas this year (thanks, pandemic) and also, it…

Continue reading →: Weekly Run Down: A Good Week
Looking back at this week in terms of running, I can say it was a good week. I got in 4 outdoor runs, 3 indoor runs (thank you, treadmill!) and I felt pretty good. I’m still not getting any faster (thanks, postpartum running, breastfeeding and lack of sleep for that), but…

December is HERE! And with that, we actually had some great weather this week. I was able to get outside half of the days and run outside. And one day, I managed to run in capris because it was in the 40s! I wouldn’t mind if it stayed this mild…

Was Thanksgiving really 3 days ago? It feels like only yesterday that I was counting down the days to see my family and celebrate the beginning of the season. My parents came into town for a few days, and it was great to see them and enjoy some turkey and…

Continue reading →: Weekly Run Down: Longest Postpartum Week
Running is my stress therapy. It helps soothe my anxiety. It makes me sane. So it should come as no surprise to me that my first full week back of work was also my highest postpartum mileage week. At least I have a coping mechanism? The week included a mix…

Continue reading →: Weekly Run Down: Time Change
I’m one of those people who likes “fall back.” I’m an early riser, and I don’t mind it being light in the mornings. I like the fact that my body thinks it’s later than it is, which makes a 4:30 a.m. wakeup alarm that much easier. And I don’t mind…

Continue reading →: Weekly Run Down: BuhBYE October
WHERE DID OCTOBER GO? Excuse the all caps, but I have no idea how we’re suddenly a week into November. I’m not ready for that. I’m not ready for winter running (brr!) and ready for another year to be over (what happened to 2021?). But yet here we are, again,…
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.
