June 8, 2011 by Amanda R DeWitt

Guess what the high was today in the good ol’ humid Midwest?  99 degrees.  That’s right.  Which means that it felt probably like 105 when me and the BF went for a walk. What did I use for fuel on the walk?  Terrible food…I don’t want to even talk about it. Okay I will tell…

March 30, 2011 by Amanda R DeWitt

The Marathon is sold out what??

March 7, 2011 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hey folks, I was going to do a half-marathon May 1st.  I saw about a month and a half ago that the half-marathon was sold out and when I discussed this with my BF, he said we could still sign up for the full-marathon but just run the half.  THEN a week or so later,…

Stitches! (week 5 of half-marathon training)

February 6, 2011 by Amanda R DeWitt

Okay I didn’t fall and have to get stitches or anything…yet, but I have been having issues with getting a “stitch in my side.”  It is not only irritating and discouraging, but it can become very painful!  My boyfriend suggested it was due to carbonated beverages…my two or three glasses of Diet Mountain Dew I…
