Ahh September is here!! How did that happen? Whetr did my beloved summer go? August was a mixed bag for me. After running nearly 200 miles in July (a lot for me!)I started August with a hip injury and have been nursing it ever since. This means that instead of…

We’re back to school, here, which means it’s back to baking some snacks and treats for the kids to take with their lunches. If you’re new around here, here’s something you should know — we eat a lot of muffins, so I bake a lot of muffins. My oldest son…

Continue reading →: Back to school time
We went back to school this week! While it’s somewhat nice to be back in the routine and back to our early mornings (a.k.a. more time for me), it isn’t great waking up early and not being able to work out during the daylight hours. Sigh. Ok, enough complaining (I…

Continue reading →: The last week of daylight
Here we go again – another week without running every day! Is it easy for me to do? Not at all. Am I still getting up to work out? You betcha, but my workouts are just weights and some walking right now. Kinda boring? A little, but since the weather…

As you may recall, I took 2 days off from running last week and found that my hip felt better after those days off! But then I ran a 9 miler and 10 miler back to back, and it started hurting again. So, this week I decided to again play…

Ack! August is here! I’m NOT READY for summer to be over, school to begin, and all the madness that that entails. Sigh. So I’m going to just try to sit back and enjoy these next few weeks in the meantime. July was a good month! I had almost 200…

Hi friends! I can’t believe we’re in August, but here we are. I’m joining Coco and Deborah for their virtual coffee today, while also sharing a fitness update for a fitness linkup, so I’m excited to share what’s going on over here. Here’s what I’d tell you if we were chatting in…

Continue reading →: Almost 50 (miles)
We had a fun summery activity-filled week with celebrations for my youngest’s birthday, a Guardians game, and a house party … and I ran almost 50 miles in one week (not one sitting, I’m not an ultramarathoner)! So once again, it was a good week of running, weight lifting, swimming,…

Continue reading →: Summer Running Is My Jam
I know I’m a broken record – but summer running really is my jam. I love the slower mornings with kids out of school, the lighter mornings (running in the light is the best!), the ability to run trails (because of aforementioned lighter mornings), and I don’t even mind the…
