I can't believe I've been so busy that I haven't even been able to blog about what I love! Okay, so that's not true, I'm still blogging about what I love, but I had plans to do training posts and all that fun stuff, but instead all you get is my race recaps from the Run Rock 'N' Roll Marathon Series Remix Challenge. Last year I ran my first 1/2 marathon with Run Rock 'N' Roll and for some … [Read more...]
Las Vegas Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon Race Recap
It's been 7 days since I ran my first half marathon and I've been mulling over how to write my race recap since I crossed that finish line.

I had planned to go back the next year for the 60 mile ride, but I was 7 months pregnant with Baby D so that wasn't going to happen... Flash forward to this year, and … [Read more...]
Half Marathon Training Week 7 + Red Rock 5k Race Recap
OMG! There are less than 60 days until I'm running my first half marathon on the Las Vegas strip. Compared to week 6 where I was struggling to find time to get my runs in my half marathon training for week 7 went great! Actually, that's not true. This week was exactly what I needed. I pushed through all my runs. I really let my body start to do it for me. I'm actually thinking this coming … [Read more...]
