2013 was the year of running. I consciously made an effort to run more this year because I knew my body needed the cross-training (my regular cardio = Zumba which = mostly lateral movement), and the only way I can make sure I run? Sign up for lot and lot o’ races. Race #1 […]
My 2013 Race Season is OVER!
Yup, as of about 9:45am Sunday morning my race season is over! Sunday was actually the first time I’ve run since my half so it wasn’t my speediest but I covered the 7km in 44:19 which I was still happy with! I’ve run more races this year than any other year in the past, and aside […]

I Did It!
It’s official! GOAL ACHIEVED!!! I’m not going to lie and say this way easy, there were a lot (a LOT) of sleepless nights wondering if and how I would be able to reach $3900, and I cannot thank all of you enough for helping reach this amazing goal. The day I met the goal […]
Maritime Race Weekend: Tartan Twosome 2013
