Lovely trial run for next week’s real run. It’s been a while since I’ve tried this…3+ years and 2 babies to be exact…

Coworker: I saw your profile picture, “were” you a runner? Me: Oh yes, hopefully still am, or will be again. That’s from when I ran across the country. Her: Oh cool, and have you ever done a marathon?

My lack of postpartum running has less to do with time and energy available and more to do with the fact that I’m getting all my Type II fun needs met through motherhood.

Coach Maggie: Setting internal motivators is a highly recommended approach to training. When you draft your goals, think of your feelings towards them, not the validation from others. Me, later that day to my partner: 😭 Not a single person complimented me on my new pants. 😭

Well. That calendar is doing me dirty. I have a 50 miler next weekend.

I "finished" my transcontinental run five years ago today. The forward progress is still moving forward. runfreerun.com/blog/2022/10/…

I love how the @Marine_Marathon sends out five information emails. Almost like they’ve worked with Marines or something. 😂🤣

Kiddos are sleeping, I'm (mostly) caught up in school, and getting some writing done. Better pack the family up, move to another country, start another course, and run a marathon. Why am I like this?

During my transcon I jotted down a few notes at the end of each day. This series always makes me laugh

Decided to take the boys (20 mos/3 mos) to my parents next week, solo. And I find myself mentally prepping like it’s a 100 miler or something. Does this count as a training run for @Marine_Marathon?

Rest in Peace.
