As of today, my running streak is at 193 days. That means that I have officially run every single day for more than half a year! When I started this running streak, it was honestly by accident. I ran the Cleveland half marathon (virtually, of course), and I don’t typically run…

This week, for the first time in weeks, I ran on the treadmill. Not just once, but TWICE! Why? We had some SERIOUS thunderstorms. And as much as I don’t reallllllly mind running in the rain, thunder and lightning scare me. So when I woke up two days in a…

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…

This week was a hard week mentally. With everything going on in the world, I can find it hard to stay focused and positive. I know I’ve said this before, but Thank. Goodness. For. Running. , To shake things up a little bit, I decided to join the Runs for…

Last week, for the first time since December, we went on vacation. Believe it or not, we hadn’t left our house for the night since Christmastime. Yes, we’d had plans for a family trip in March, but we all know what happened then … We spent a few days this…

Continue reading →: 142 Days of Running
For the first time during the streak this week, the weather almost prevented me from continuing. Monday – Labor Day – I had plans to “sleep in” (until the kids woke up between 6:30-7) and go for a run while my parents watched the kids. Well, by the time I…

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…
