2019 Intentions: Did I Set Any?

January 5, 2020

It was a good final week of winter break but inevitably, it is drawing to a close. Thing 1 flies back to Atlanta Sunday night and Thing 2 heads back to school on Monday. We continue to be mostly mild and snow-free, which is a-okay with me. The week’s workouts went like this: Monday: Rest [Read More]

A New Year’s Coffee Date

Happy New Year! I hope you’re off to a good start in the new year and new decade. Let’s grab a warm brew, sit down and catch up. I’m linking up with Deborah and Coco for the Ultimate Coffee Date. Join us! Over coffee I’d tell you it’s been an enjoyable winter break with some [Read More]

Standout Moments of 2019 and the Decade

December 31, 2019

It wouldn’t be the end of another year without the requisite medal haul pic, would it? I won’t bore you with race details, just a few highlights. Of course 2019 will go down as the year I finished my 6th and final World Marathon Major. A goal I spent 10 years working toward and really [Read More]

Health Habits I’m Taking Into the New Year…and Things I’m Leaving Behind

December 29, 2019

Here were are on the cusp of a new year and new decade. It’s the ultimate perch on which to sit a moment and reflect. Was 2019 everything you’d hoped for? Any surprises? What did you learn? How will you move forward? I’ve given this some thought and settled on a list of things I [Read More]

Final Runfessions of the Decade

December 26, 2019

Here we are in the waning days of 2019. Fast year? Fast decade?? Yes and yes. We do have time for one last Runfession Friday Linkup before we ring in 2020. Always better to start with a clean slate, right? Since I’ve been decluttering the blog, I came across what appears to be my very [Read More]

Birthday Week: It’s a Jungle Out There

December 22, 2019

This week found me scrambling. Scrambling with a crescendo of flute concierge duties and work before the holidays. Then there was drama. The kind of drama that makes this runner head for the trails for refuge. Thank God for running and nature and endorphins. Monday: Rest Tuesday: 3 miles of mental health Speedwork Wednesday: Trail [Read More]

Too Busy To Cook? Peapod Meal Kits to the Rescue!

December 17, 2019

I received free goodies from Peapod. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. With holiday parties, pot lucks and other obligations seeming to come from all directions lately, who’s got time to sit down to a home-cooked meal let alone actually make one? The struggle is real. Earlier this year I was had [Read More]

Party of Four in the House

December 15, 2019

We’re in full-on holiday mode here. Thing 1 finished (make that spanked) her finals and flew home from Atlanta. Thing 2 has one more week of school. It feels SO good to have everyone together, under one roof again. Here’s how my workouts went: Monday: Rest Tuesday: Run 3 miles Wednesday: Strength + Plyo Intervals [Read More]

North Shore Turkey Trot

December 12, 2019

On Thanksgiving morning, I participated in the North Shore Turkey Trot. Since finishing the London Marathon back in April, running has been pushed far to the back burner and my miles have dwindled. I ran the Wonder Woman 10k in June and ZOOMA Great Lakes 10k in September but those were merely for fun as well. [Read More]

Healthy Chicken, Quinoa and Parmesan Casserole

December 9, 2019

Confession: Frequently eating out or ordering takeout takes a toll on me. I just don’t feel great when I don’t eat well. Not surprising, right? That’s why simple, yet healthy and most importantly DELICIOUS go-to meals I can put together quickly are worth their weight in gold. As I research, plan and strategize my transition [Read More]

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
