75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
I’ve literally been giddy excited to write this post seeing it coming up in the schedule and now it’s here! I plan for this to be sort of funny, sort of informative and defiantly enlightening for both groups. Then it snowed so it got put off a few weeks, spoiler alert it's snowing again. Where...

I say halfway there in a 12 week plan because that last week is tapering and.. it’s super motivating! This week chugged along pretty nicely, a few days off for easter and some partially decent weather helped. But looking at next week’s schedule it’s about to get real so I really enjoyed this last week... Continue Reading →
Recently someone bought one of my training plans specifically the realistic 1/2 marathon plan but life happens and instead she’s working on a 10k. We’ve been going back and forth a bit on adapting one plan for another race (and I’m working on a 10k plan in my mind at least). But it got me... Continue Reading →
This week was a bit of a blur really looking back no run really stands out. This week we were cursed with Sheila's Brush, a Newfoundland term for a later winter’s storm on the heels of St. Patrick’s day. Really over the last decade or so with temperatures getting warmer winter is over come March... Continue Reading →
Something weird is happening you guys… I got up early to run twice this week even though I technically didn’t have to. Weird right… Since it was march break and dark morning time change week I was all excited to sleep in, which I did till like 9:30 twice on non-running days. So far honey... Continue Reading →
No matter how much you love your favourite workout it can get stale after a while after that it can start to suck a bit and you loose motivation. I just started training for a 1/2 marathon this month after a winter of only running and I’m not there yet but we all know it’s... Continue Reading →
If you’re a runner you’ve heard about the 10% rule but you’ve probably noticed a lot of plans tell you to break it on the regular. In short it states that you shouldn’t increase your milage more than 10% of what you did last week. The idea is that if you push too hard too... Continue Reading →
This week wasn't especially busy at work I mostly drove around for specially stuff but we did work every single day and my tutoring load was pretty typical but it was starched out over more evenings. I’m also writing and article for Sad Runner about hacking your sleep but I’m well ahead here so no... Continue Reading →
This is not sponsored it’s just a rave! After every runner buys sneakers their very next purchase should be road ID. It’s cheap, high quality, lasts a lifetime and might just help save your life. We all buy things we hope we never need, insurance (used the hell out of that already this year), smoke... Continue Reading →
Week one check! This week I’ll be talking about my last runs of freedom and my first week of training. Yeah! This year we haven’t had much of a winter it was Juneuary, followed my no February so hopefully that continues into March. We have literally no snow on the ground, I saw like one...
