Hi everyone, It’s been a while I know. Last year was great but I simply didn’t have the time or the brain capacity to write quality blog length posts for you. However its a new year and with new years come resolutions (I just learned something about the difference between resolutions and goals…more later.) This year […]
We are in the 3rd week of January now and all of those lofty goals you set for your self are starting to sink in. In fact yesterday, the 15th, was quitters day. 90% of people who set goals give up on them after 15 days… you might be asking yourself are these even possible? Maybe so but […]
I haven’t done a race post in a while….but you bet I am after this crazy PR. Fro Yo 5k 25:53:70 8:21/Mi Overall: 80 out of 1206 Female: 31 out of 891 Age Group: 7 out of 139 So…I guess I’ve been phoning it in a bit on my runs…using heat as my excuse and […]

For the last 2 years I haven’t had any crazy running goals, which is reasonable with 2 girls under 2 years old. I’ve simply been content with running at all and the fact that I PR’d my 1/2 marathon was a HUGE bonus to the cross training I started, heck my goal was just to finish […]
Writing this statement was no small undertaking for me. Its a concept I learned from Chalene Johnson’s 30 Day Push (a free training FYI. ) I half wrote it several times but I finally got the whole thing done and just in time to help me make a very big decision. My number one priority […]
Sunday was a magical day for me. I’m not sure I’ll even be able to express how amazing it was to cross the finish knowing that my husband, girls and 2 of my best friends were cheering me on. On top of that I set a new personal record!!!! 13.1 Miles 2:08:12 9:48 Per Mile 2:08 […]
Its tax season and this year we had no idea how to do our withholdings so we just kept them the same. With baby #2 arriving in September this of course caused an overpayment and we got a refund. We were able to make our first extra payment towards the student loan debit and it […]
I had a choice to make yesterday, a new bag or a new Road ID. Instead of gifts this year, Mac and I waited for out taxes to come in and then made a deposit into our fun money accounts to do whatever we wanted with. It is a fair amount of money once you […]
