I love weekends with family! And this weekend was one of those weekends, as my parents were able to come into town to visit. The last time they were in Cleveland was October, so it had been some time!Friday afternoon coincidentally was a grandparents’ event at FW’s school, so they…

This week was another great week in terms of weather for running – every single one of my runs, including my speed training (8×400 m) was done outside. Here’s a look at week 7 of my Cleveland half marathon training: Overall, here is how the week looked: Some highlights/lowlights: This…

Continue reading →: Finally Feels Like Springtime
I can’t say it enough – but I am so happy that it finally feels like spring is here in Cleveland! Could it possibly snow again? Yes, it’s happened before. But in the meantime, I’m so so ecstatic that we had a weekend where we could spend time outside and…

Continue reading →: My Fastest Run In A While and I’m on a Podcast (Cleveland Half Marathon Training: Week Six)
I don’t want to jinx it, but dare I say that spring is finally here and winter is gone? This week I got in ALL my runs (minus my speed training, which I like to do inside to keep me honest) OUTSIDE! And one of the runs was in shorts.…

HAPPY APRIL! Though looking at the weather we had this weekend, you wouldn’t know it was April. That’s because we got SNOW (a few inches!) on Saturday night into Sunday. It may have looked pretty, but I’m ready for spring already! Anyway, I’m getting ahead of myself. Here’s a little…

Continue reading →: Pancakes, Pizza and Running
Some weekends are busy. Jam packed, with tons of fun activities, but barely any time to sit back and relax. Other weekends are uneventful – not much planned, but plenty of time to hang out with family, friends, and get stuff done. Last weekend was the former – but this…

I can’t believe it’s less than 60 days to the Cleveland half marathon … that means I’m 25% through with my training! It hardly feels like the race is so soon – perhaps because it still felt like winter this week? For my long run this week, it was in…

Over the river and through the woods, to grandmother’s house we go … Whoever wrote that idyllic song probably wasn’t traveling with two kids under the age of three during the holidays. Because just a few months ago, we packed up the car, put the kids in their car seats,…
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.
Let’s connect
