It’s been a while since I posted an update and figured today was time. The past week was a whirlwind week. 3 concerts in 3 states in 3 days, then an additional 3 days of exploring with my son for his birthday! We are both huge fans of Home Free, an acapella country group originally […]

The secret is out!
It’s no secret that I love my visits to Cryotherapy, especially after my long training runs and races. What I have not had a chance to share with everyone is just how much it really makes a difference on my recovery! Over the last 2 months I have finished several long training runs (16 miles […]
Stop, recharge and refocus

Destination Oregon, Part 2
The best things in life are the people we love, the places we’ve been and the memories we have made along the way! I don’t know about you, but as I’ve gotten older, the things that are most important have changed. So many people, as they get older, look back as say, “Man, I […]

Enjoy! When I first started running several years ago, you never saw women running in skirts. So when one […]
No, I didn’t fall off the face of the earth, I’ve just been running all over it!
Wow! Where has the last 7 months gone! Apparently life has completely gotten away from me and I have been neglecting my blog! When I was just sitting here this morning reading back through a few of my posts, I realized how much I really have missed writing these updates! That needs to change! Writing […]
Hike, Bike and Ice: Munising weekend 2014 comes to a close
As always, any good vacation must come to and end. Unfortunately, that was today. But I am not going to let it put a damper on any of the fun adventures that we had this weekend! The weather was awesome (a little rain overnight on Friday didn’t bother us since we were sleeping), we met […]
