  • Make that Eight for the Year

    Chilly and windy, but the sunshine was out and this momma needed some fresh air! It was one of those runs where I hardly thought at all. I zoned out and just ran to my music. Time went really quick and before I knew it I already had in my miles. Splits: 8:56, 8:59, 8:47,…

  • Wild Salmon Sweet Potato Cakes

    First new recipe from the “Run Fast Eat Slow” cookbook!  It was the first time I have ever cooked salmon (or any fish for that matter).  Crazy to think that I cooked myself a meal with salmon AND onion in it. I have come a long way from plain meat and potatoes. My tastebuds thank…

  • Nice Recovery Run

    Saturday’s long run still had me feeling a little sore and beat up. However, it felt good to be outside in the fresh air. I laced up my Mizunos and ran my three miles while Mr. C was in his Little Gym class.  First three miles of 2017. Only 9997 more to go. 😮 Splits:…

    365 Days

    365 Days… When the pandemic hit, I found myself a bit out-of-control. Like many of you, routines were flipped upside down in an instant. Suddenly, I was a 24/7 parent, teacher, coach, and actual physical presence for two growing boys. The gym closed down; my job went with it. I am thankful that I did…

    Disney Dopey Challenge 2020 One year ago today, I completed my third marathon, which happened to also be my first Disney Dopey Challenge!
