Half marathon #2 for the year. The great thing about this race is that it is literally right in my neighborhood. Although the route does not cross in front of our house, it does six houses down at the intersection. A part of the route is the route my friends and I run multiple times […]

My goal for 2016 is to run 6 half marathons. I had planned to train for six months and run the first one in June. But, the medal for the Peace, Love, Run swayed me to move it up to March! A lovely course along the river in Sacramento. Weather was great, and shared the […]

10 miles of trails. Gorgeous weather, gorgeous views, great conversation. Unfortunately, she ended up with poison oak on her arm. It’s all over here… still, good times… Started with some other friends, then got separated. Met back up with them later at the starting point.

Sweet time on the road with my good friend. She is getting back into running after having her fifth baby. We did nine miles along the Miner’s Ravine Trail…

Our running club (Moms Run This Town), had an amazing trail run. We started when it was still dark, but within a mile, the sun came up. This was a four mile run. At 2.5 miles, I lost my footing on the muddy trail, and twisted my ankle. I was able to “shake it off” […]

Way to welcome in the New Year! Woo hoo! A hard run, but so fun! This run also completed the Thanksgiving to New Year run streak! My run buddy was Lindsay, the other one with the headband.

Our running group took some of us newbies on our first trail run. Perfect day. Hard work! Loved it all! We found one tree along the trail that was decorated and contained little baskets with packets of ‘Gu’, (fuel for runners). Another tree was decorated with edible food for birds.

I signed up for a challenge to run at least one mile a day every day from Thanksgiving to New Years. Then, I signed up for another challenge to run at least 1K during the 12 days of Christmas, but upped the ante to run 5K every day during that time. Happy to say, I met […]
