Wake me up when September ends…
oh wait, September is over…somehow! I have been listing in a blur lately and I think I fell into survival mode. If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw that I signed up for my first postpartum half marathon. To say my training for the BCS Marathon Half is off to a slow start […]
The Mother Runnin’ Truth: Mom Guilt
Happy Wednesday and happy Fourth of July! I hope you are getting an opportunity to celebrate with your loved ones today. I have to work this morning but after that I will be in the pool and having all the fun! In the meantime, let’s talk about the less fun truths of being a mom […]
Monday Miles – April 30, 2018
Well, my computer apparently ate my update from last week. Womp womp womp. I know I had promised an update on the “why” behind my return to running and all that jazz. What I meant to share last Tuesday was that I broke my runstreak and didn’t write the update because I got a dog! […]
Hello 2018!
Happy New Year!! I spent last night working and was sound asleep before midnight because I had to be up bright and early to get back to work this morning. I for one am sincerely hoping that the weather we have to start the year does not predict the weather for the rest of the […]
2017 in review
I wish I could tell you how many miles I ran in 2027 or some great running feat I accomplished. But in all honestly didn’t run many miles or tackle any new running goals. Blogging and social media took a back seat….like a wayyyyy back seat. I did run my first Ragnar. And that was […]
Cleared to run!
Yesterday was my final postpartum doctor visit and I got cleared to go back to life as usual! It’s actually a little strange to finally feel like I have no restrictions or limitations. I can run trails without worrying that one little fall could be catastrophic! Of course at this point Oliver is still too […]
Third Trimester Mental Reset
I am in the third trimester officially! It is so strange to think that I am nearing the end of this adventure (just to start a new one!) because it feels like just yesterday that I found out I was going to be a mom! Today I hit 28 weeks and I got to thinking […]
Winter Slump
Y’all I am in a running rut again. I have not run a single mile since the Hot Chocolate 15k a week and a half ago. Not a good thing since I have the Alamo 13.1 coming up next month! (And let’s face it: next month is not that far away!) It’s been one of […]
Today…
This is not what I wanted. I cannot believe that this has actually happened. The entire election feels surreal. But I will choose love. I will not give in to hatred and bitterness. I will not start calling names. I will not stop fighting for the rights of those who are so often marginalized. I […]
