I’ve never been a resolutioner. In fact I’m kind of a crappy goal setter. This is the closest post I could find that remotely discussed plans for 2015. My mileage tracking is ponderous at best. I may log it, I may not. I’ve never set a yearly mileage goal because I know whatever I run, it’ll be [Read More]

A Marco Island Christmas
I’d tell you how my workout week went like I usually do, but I’m just back from our Florida vacay and not a whole lot of workout tracking was done. The workouts happened, they were just free-form. I ran at least 3x, sometimes on the beach, sometimes not. Sometimes fast, mostly not. I wore my [Read More]
2015 Running Highlights
This week’s Tuesdays on the Run topic is this year’s running highlights. It coincides very nicely with Courtney’s Year in Running Linkup so I’m going to borrow her format and linkup with her as well.

Race Plans for 2016
We’re leaving for Florida soon. I should be packing and everything else that goes along with travel. I’ve got laundry going so there’s that. I volunteered for any/all of Thing 2’s class holiday parties and of course I was picked for the winter one. Because I need another thing to deal with right now. I’m [Read More]

My Year in Running
Today’s Friday Five topic is Running Wish List. Honestly beyond finishing the marathon majors, my only wishes are to stay healthy, injury free and that everyone could enjoy the endorphins and experiences running brings. Since my racing year is over, I thought I’d recap the year’s top 5 running-related experiences instead. In 2015 I didn’t race [Read More]
Great Holiday Gifts for Him
This post is sponsored by Vocalpoint and Dick’s Sporting Goods®. All opinions are my own. I can’t lie: My Caveman is preposterously difficult to shop for. He’s very particular about…well everything…and won’t hesitate to tell me to take something back if it doesn’t meet his standards. Now that it’s the running “off-season”, I’ve been joining [Read More]
