  • What if I didn’t workout?

    This is me this morning after a 4.5mil run on the W&OD trail. It was hot and humid and great. I have had a lot on mind lately both personally and professionally that I am finding these runs really help me quiet the thoughts in my head, at least temporarily. On a different topic –…

  • Breathe it all in

    It’s been a crazy day. I woke up to a light rain/mist in the air and decided to go for a run. I figured if it’s not raining heavy, it’s probably great weather for one. I ended up doing about 6mi on the trail. There were a few other runners out there with me and…

  • A wonderful morning!

    I went for a run this morning with 2 of my favorite ladies. We met at Partlows on the W&OD Trail and did 4 miles together – I ran .5 mi there and back to meet them.  It certainly makes the time go by faster and the run seem easier when you have good company.…

  • A relaxing weekend…

    I wanted to get a run in early because it’s supposed to be highs in the 90s today.  I headed out and one of my neighbors told me about this cut through that will take me directly on the trail.  I have lived in my neighborhood for 11 years and never knew about this —…

  • Rest days are for the weak

    Is it a bad thing that I decided to forgo a rest day to enjoy a beautiful day outside. I went for a 1.5 mi run and then mowed my yard all during my lunch hour.  There is something about getting outside and soaking in that Vit D and being physical that just makes you…

  • A crisp day for a run!

    As much as I wanted to sleep in today – I had made plans to meet a co-worker/friend of mine James who started running 3 weeks ago. He is doing a 5k next week and has been running to get ready for it. We met on the W&OD trail. If you remember, I told my…
