The Active Joe: April 2014
http://theactivejoe.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
This isn't a story about an average joe, but it's close. It's a story about the struggles of your typical slower back-of-the-pack runner trying to stay active. I know I'm not alone - aren't a lot of us out there an "Active Joe"? Sunday, April 27, 2014. Climb A Mountain, Get The Miles Done - Ouachita 50K Race Report. I'm setting the stage here basically that this was the end of 3 tiring peak training weeks for me. This race was the culmination of a quest for miles and challenging miles and MORE miles&...

Moms RUN this Town. My Life is a Race. Running through life, one step at a time. January 11, 2015. Given that it’s been 6 months since I’ve updated, I’m sure you can imagine that I’m WAY behind on things like race recaps and training updates. Life got in the way for a while, but I’m trying to get caught up and then STAY caught up for 2015 – it’s part of my “resolution” for the new year. So, let’s get started. It was awesome to see the progress I’d made. Plano Balloon Festival Half Marathon. Up next: Rock...

Creating my own story. Run Like a Girl. I’m a} Professional. Run Like a Girl. I ran one half marathon in 2012 (my first), another in 2013, and I ran THREE half marathons in 2014! I’ve got an awesome collection of medals but more than that I have confidence and a strong body.

August 23, 2014. It’s been quite a day. On Friday night, I asked – no,. The alarm went off at 5 am and I got up. This was the earliest I’d. Gotten up for a long run. In the past, I’d only trained for half marathons, and they were usually in the winter, so I was able to train in October and November, when temps are cooler and you don’t have to get up before the sun. I was a little nervous about running in the dark, but I fueled up, grabbed my Mace and I was good to go. Anyway, it was totally worth. Gettin...

Marathon State of Mind: Embracing the 5K.
http://www.marathonstateofmind.com/2015/01/embracing-5k.html
Wednesday, January 21, 2015. At the end of 2014 I wasn't sure which direction I wanted to take my running as I explained here. I'm SUPER excited about it! My heart belongs to the half marathon and full marathon distance but it's nice to change things up every once in awhile and allow different muscle groups to take over for a bit. My ultimate goal is of course to PR in the 5K and lay the ground work for my other big goal in fall: a Sub-2 half marathon. I'd love to see some familiar faces at races. Nothin...
