Am I Crazy? First Half Marathon in May!
Hello Friends! It was a snow day yesterday so I stayed snuggled in for most of the day, wrapping presents and eating Christmas goodies, only emerging when Dave came to rescue me in his SUV for a Christmas party. As I was going to bed I saw a tweet last night that the half marathon…
Half-Marathon Training Plan
Hello Friends! So you want to run a half-marathon? Me too! I’ve tried a couple of times with obstacles blocking my completion and I am trying again! One of the fun things for me is planning out my training plan. I like to use a base plan such as a Hal Higdon training plan and…
Guess What? I’m Gonna Try Again!
Hello Friends! The half-marathon. The daunting 13.1 mile run. I’ve attempted training for it twice now. The first time, I hurt my back at work. Not only did I have to discontinue training, I was unable to work for a couple of months. That. Was. Awful. The last time I tried to train for the…

Update on Half-Marathon Training (This post is from Monday but for some reason I didn’t hit “publish”)
I should have known SOMETHING would happen to ruin my streak of running..although it was only a week, I was proud of that week. Well I live in a place where we experience all four seasons in ALL of their glory. We got a few inches of snow over the weekend…and it just kept on…
Week One of Training Complete!
Hello all, So I started on the Hal Higdon training for a 5k and I got through this week! But since I started 2 days later, and I still had to run 3 times that week, I decided to run two days in a row… Big Mistake I also started back to one of my…
