I run the marathon for...

It’s Chicago Marathon eve. In the morning I’ll join the 45,00o participants as we take to the streets of Chicago. This will be marathon number two for me. I will run for Pam, Kae and Penny. I will think of them when I struggle and smile. I will run for my dad; I’m glad he’s... Read more »

I’m glad I switched my run to Sunday and had Saturday as a rest day. It was effing hot out! Sunday I headed out to Arlington Heights and ran with Steve. We even swung by Runners High n Tri to see Mark and Pom! It was a fun run despite the temps! After the run... Read more »

A hill run with Coach Jen...

A hill run with Coach Jen...
I could have called this, “I think my coach is trying to kill me!” In all seriousness I was equal parts nervous and excited for a chance to run with Coach Jen! Nervous, because I didn’t know what to expect! Excited, because I wanted to see how she works out…I assumed hard, but I wanted... Read more »

Long run recap and the week ahead...

Long run recap and the week ahead...
Yarrrrr! Yesterday I went out for my long run…2:00:00. For a change of pace I went in the early afternoon. I was hoping for more warmth, and I got it…it was 50ish when I hit Busse Woods. All in all I got some good miles in, but started having some intestinal cramping around mile 7... Read more »

Big weekend ahead!

Big weekend ahead!
I finally feel back to normal. On top of a hot race and overdoing it, I fought being sick all week. But I’m back and ready to go! Coach Jen and I chatted a bit yesterday, adjusting the plan for this week. I was home with K yesterday, for day 2 of fever-boogaloo. Thankfully she... Read more »

Healthy Hump Day...

Healthy Hump Day...
As I retired Weigh-in Wednesdays last week, I have felt a little relieved. I’ve tossed around more ideas for Wednesdays and decided I’d just go with healthy hump day…share interesting links and information as well as a recipe of the week. Coach Jen sent me this article the other day…on triathlon training recovery, it also... Read more »

Anyone get the license plate on that truck?

Apparently my race recap is incomplete. It took more out of me than I thought. I was a little achy yesterday and had some “plumbing issues”. I thought I was fine. I went to the gym over the lunch hour to spin yesterday. Coach Jen is having me ease back into things…and I really needed... Read more »

image.attributes.post_excerpt
I’m still a little confused by what I’m feeling about this race, hence why I didn’t post my recap right away. And there have already been a few race recaps out on Chicago Now today, offering varying views of the race. This post reflects my train of thought the past 24 hours. It’s a mix... Read more »

Training recap: 400s, a double digit run and it's race week!

Training recap: 400s, a double digit run and it's race week!
Sorry for the lack of posts the last few days. It was a hard hat and work gloves kind of busy week! OK, when isn’t it a busy week? Training wise it was tough. I backed off from blogging and volunteering to focus of the family, work and training. I needed to just put my... Read more »
