A big old goose egg for running this month. I started physical therapy to fix my hip issue and am taking it REALLY easy right now. Lots of strength training and core while completing all the PT exercises each week. I had to defer my June half as well as miss the Biltmore Classic race. … Continue reading May Training update!
Charlottesville, VA | June 9-11, 2017 | A weekend getaway with the college besties and their hubbies. Caitlin's parents live in Charlottesville these days and opened up their home to us for the weekend. We were the first to arrive as C-ville isn't too far for us! They we nice enough to let us bring … Continue reading Charlottesville
After a tumultuous semester at VT this past spring, I began looking for other jobs. I felt under appreciated, under paid, and treated like dirt and so needed a change. The only positive part about my current position was that it allowed me to assist Jon in marketing efforts for his ensemble (which to be … Continue reading New job!
Asheville, NC | May 19-21, 2017 | What was supposed to be a fun race weekend with the Oiselle ladies actually turned into a fun getaway weekend with no running to be had. HA.

Wimberly, TX | May 4-8, 2017 | Reuniting with the grad school ladies for a weekend of relaxation and fun! On Thursday morning I flew out early from ROA to head to Dallas.

I PR'd in both the 5K and 10 Miler in back to back weeks. I also injured my right hip and can't run at all currently. I was continuing my training exactly as planned- things were going great! I felt good … Continue reading April Training update
April 23, 2017 | Alexandria, VA | Time: 1:32:29 | Another new PR!!!! Finally busted my 5 year old PR at this distance. I wasn't sure how this race was going to go to be perfectly honest. I had been training since February for my A Goal: 1:30:00. And while I fell a little short … Continue reading GW Parkway Classic 10 Miler
Boston, MA | April 15-18, 2017 | So in my last post I raved about the BAA 5K and my new PR but the real reason we were in Boston was for Jon's Dad. He had qualified back in Nov 2015 to run Boston again... at the age of 62. CRAZY. Of course I was … Continue reading Boston
Boston, MA | Saturday, April 15, 2017 | TIME: 26:16 | Wahoo! A new PR!!! Now I've been working pretty diligently on my training plan for the 10 miler I have this weekend and it was really nice to see that work pay off at last Saturday's 5K. I wasn't sure I could pull it … Continue reading BAA 5K!
