Is there a better way to start off a weekday than with pancakes? Yeah, didn’t think so. Most people think of pancakes as a weekend breakfast, but these are so easy to whip up you can have some any day of the week. I mashed half a banana in a bowl (I actually used a [...]

Saturday morning (wow, more than two days ago!) I set my latest personal distance record of 12 miles. I have run ten miles twice before, but this was my first dirty dozen and also the longest I will run before Nike Women’s, which is in fewer than three weeks!! I tried to make this run [...]
I woke up yesterday morning so excited about running 10 miles again. That means I’m officially crazy, right? Oh well, at least it made it a whole lot easier to get out of bed when my alarm went off. And since the quality of sleep I get on a Friday night here in college isn’t [...]

I somehow pulled myself out of bed at 5 this morning and met my Team in Training group for 10 awesome miles. To me, this is remarkable considering several things: I didn’t have a great night’s sleep. I didn’t eat a proper dinner last night and just ate a really big snack right before I [...]

I made it! All moved back into my dorm room no worse for wear. But as usual, I’m starting the day from the beginning. Move-in day started with an early wake-up call for my Team in Training run. My running buddy and I had a “we really are runners” moment this morning. We were standing [...]

Morning! My meals have been a little short on creativity since our kitchen supplies are running low thanks to traveling. But I did get to use a swag bag item: With my breakfast this morning! 1/3 cup oats with water, milk, one whole banana, flax, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Look at all that [...]

So much to say! This will be a bit of a rambling post. First of all, posting yesterday just did not happen. Life has been super busy lately, and a little bit stressful. Consequently my meals yesterday were super-random (we’re talking broccoli for a nighttime snack…what the heck?). This morning I woke up early and [...]
First of all, can anyone explain to me why it’s a lot harder to get up at 6 a.m. on a Monday for a shorter run than it is to get up at 5 a.m. on a Saturday for a longer run? Oh well. The important thing is that I got up this morning and [...]
Sorry I’ve been MIA the past couple days but no fear, I didn’t eat anything too interesting that you’d want to see. I celebrated the first of August this morning with an awesome run. I have no idea what it was, but I just felt amazing this morning. I was full of energy, my legs [...]
