    Monday.

    Some days are rough, some days don’t even have a word to describe it. But a way to recover from them or to survive…is to RUN. At least that is what they say. Running can be difficult at times, yes, but it can also be therapeutic too. Some people blast some music in their headphones…

    It’s your imperfections that make you…YOU

    Life gets tough at times and throws things your way you don’t expect or want to even accept, but sometimes you have no choice. Last August I had a small stroke and since then my body has been affected. While there wasn’t anything done permanently to my brain, there seems to be one lasting effect.…

  • Running Cyber Monday Deals!

    I know that people say that running is the cheapest sport, but if you think about it, it really isn’t LOL. You might want to have the shoes, running gear, watch, hat, bra, and injury prevention stuff like KT Tape or Pro Compression socks. So I’ve put together some of my favorites that are having…

    Be OBSESSIVELY grateful

    2017 has been ferociously mean, and yet I am grateful. I have learned lots through the months and the year is still not over. This year has not been my favorite, but that doesn’t mean that I am not grateful for it. We all know running in general isn’t easy, not even for the most…

    May the RUN be with you.

      I am always on the hunt for a good virtual race. I can’t always travel around to races to I look for the next good thing and do the virtual runs and give myself challenges. I make them fun, interesting, and sometimes hard work. Depending on the distance of the race. I think I…

    All the medals, all the bling

    Being a runner, is supposed to be simple right? Just pick a good pair of shoes and a road and you’re done….wrong! Not when you are training for a race! You need more roads, more shoes, fuel and proper time to train. Not to mention all the money to register for all those races you…

    Life is funny but I am strong. 

    Life is something serious isn’t is?!?! It definitely has a sense of humor and sometimes I don’t laugh..well I’m lying. I do. With the diagnosis of the permanent nerve damage in my legs, it’s been hard to get higher mileage or hell, even back to my faster pace lately. But yesterday I freaking killed it!!!…

    What’s in your bag?

    Our lives are in constant motion, we are always on the go and we sometimes don’t eat right. And of course we are always looking for the ideal form of nutrition on the go that will give us exactly what we want, but that will also taste good and not like…well…nutrition. I have been using…

  • Running the sweet life.

    So fall is literally around the corner, which makes me happy for MANY reasons. One of the reasons is because I get to see the trails I run on change. Yes it isn’t as dramatic as in New York maybe, but the leaves do fall and change colors. I do love LOVE a good scenic…
