75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
Well folks here’s a first I had to add 2018 to the title since I’ve done the tire trot last year too. See I’m all experienced at this racing and blogging about it shiz. I’m like a tire trot OG all the way back to year one! I’ve done it every year since it started,... Continue Reading →
This isn’t so much my race recap as it is my trainee’s though I was in fact there and I did get a medal for it. Truthfully when I heard about the give’r twice option to add the 5k to a race I was going to do on Sunday anyway I registered for both and... 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 →
New training plan alert! All of the training programs I’ve written so far for a half marathon, an olympic and sprint triathlon have been in the same realistic series but ya’ll have been asking me for less so to speak. Previous plans have been geared to build your fitness AND confidence to cross the finish... Continue Reading →

But The Frostbite Five Miler is actually one I’ve done before and it was lots of fun! It’s actually a really... Continue Reading →
It’s not too early, I swear, to start thinking about next year or too late to look back on the year that was. This year definitely, definitely didn’t go according to plan! I didn’t accomplish my original goal of completing an Olympic triathlon but changing it to running all the fun races I never do... Continue Reading →
Sometimes you think you are done for the season and then something truly amazing happens and you just have to add one more! Can runners have a post season, well if they can this is my post season. In my case one of those people you would love to see do some running (or walking)... Continue Reading →
This one was the final feather in my hat for the year of fun races I’ve always wanted to do. Since I pulled the plug on training for an olympic triathlon before it really even began I’ve been doing fun races all season and it has been so much better than I even imagined it... Continue Reading →
Good things about fall races, It’s not too hot, they start later in the day, fall foliage and you can wear a costume even if it’s not an official thing. Loves it! Last year I made a chace the ace running outfit for the YMCA Trick or Treat Trot in Bridgewater since they said there... Continue Reading →
Race day cheerleaders should you bring them? I read a race recap post recently from Better LIVIN whom I follow and that sort of inspired this post. It sounded like she had a bit of a rough time with her cheerers that race and once or twice honey hasn't been totally over the moon excited... Continue Reading →
