I’ve set it before, and I’ll say it again. I don’t love fall, mostly because it makes me think of winter. And, I love WARM days and WARM weather. I love long days of sunlight. That said, I do love fall running and this week we had some great weather,…

It’s October, and that means that fall is here, and unfortunately, it also means that I got my first cold of the season. And yes, it was just a cold — with my parents coming into town for the long weekend and us seeing B’s parents regularly (his mom is…

It’s fall! And with the cooler temps, means that I’m READY for all the fall baking! This weekend, we baked some apple cinnamon bread and pumpkin whoopee pies. Both recipes were good, but the whoopee pies were requested by B and they came out SO good. I highly recommend that…

Continue reading →: Another Week of the Streak
Another week down and another week of keeping up my running streak! This week I didn’t run as many miles as usual. Like last week, I skipped out of my longer mid-week run, due to some plantar fasciitis issues. Overall, the pain wasn’t as bad as last week, but on…

Continue reading →: Cutting Down Week
After about 12 weeks of getting 40+ miles in a week, I decided to take it “easy” this week. Looking at totals, I know 30+ miles isn’t quite an easy week. I still ran every day (I’m at 128 days of my running streak!). And, I still got in my…
