This Week in Running – The New Normal

Rumor has it that it's Monday. That's what technology tell me, anyway. Everything is kind of stringing together these days. It can be fun to joke and feel good to vent, but of course that doesn't mean that I'm not thankful that my family and I are safe and able to be home together most …

This Week in Running – When a PR isn’t JUST a PR…

What day is it? Oh, it's Sunday. That's right. I'm glad technology is tracking that sort of stuff, cause we're losing most of our reasons to care about such things. I did go to church on YouTube this morning, so we're adapting where we can to the current situation.

This Week in Running – This is a test, this is only a test…

It's Sunday morning and I didn't have to run (thanks Coach), so what better time to write a post? Daylight savings robbed us of an hour, but I went to bed pretty early to prepare for that. 🙂 This extra rest day was definitely earned, since I busted out a 20 miler yesterday. I was …

This Week in Crazy (oops, I mean Running) – When it doesn’t go as planned…

Hello, everybody! It's a little late in the week for my update but better late than never, right? I've been battling a cough that just won't die for at least a couple of weeks now. I even went to the doctor (that's how you KNOW it's serious) to get a hodge-podge of drugs and an …
