Getting SO EXCITED

You may have noticed the cute little fundraising widget over there to the right.... well yep. That's what I am excited about. Well I am excited both for the money that my amazing friends and family have contributed to a cause that I consider a worthy one- and for the event itself!!

I won't go into why I am doing it. You can read about that here. Just know that it is for a high school classmate of mine whose strength and persistence totally amazes me.

Anyway... the other part of why I am excited is that I received all the info and SWAG for the run with Team in Training. I will take some pics of it all and share a little closer to the run. For now, I am going to share some random Hershey, PA related images.







Yep, this run is going to be so SWEEET. All puns intended. I am super excited that the course takes us through the park and by the rides and all kinds of Hershey-ness. I often wish that I lived other places, warmer, closer to the ocean, but I really do love and cherish where we live. So close to the capital, so close to Hershey, so close to lots of areas we LOVE. 

I will be sharing more after my last (sigh) training run on Saturday. Ironically, I will actually be running 11 miles (with those prepping for the Nike DC Half- sooooo should have done this) instead of my assigned 5. Overachiever? Maybe. But, I will definitely be prepared for the Hershey Half Marathon in October. More on that one later. :)

Have a great weekend and happy running. I know I sure will be happy.. all 11 miles of smiles.

Into the woods

 Every week since I updated the look here, I keep telling myself I will write. Somehow life (or sleep) gets in the way and I never sit down to get started on anything.  Early last week, Bryan suggested that we take our long run to the Appalachian Trail and of course I agreed immediately. He knows how much I love running trails, especially the AT, and even more so, starting at Boiling Springs. I have a history with the AT, so running there always feels a little like home when we are able to run there.  Some areas had a little snow Friday and it was evident that the trail was sprinkled with a tiny amount- just enough to feel slightly magical. It's been a super mild winter here in PA, so we get excited every time we see even a flurry of snow.  There was no shortage of fun little fan mushrooms so I could not resist the urge to stop for a few photo ops. It seemed like they were doing some cleanup after the frequent high winds we have had lately, so I did see some areas wi...

2017- a killer year for running

Image
Can you believe that we made it through 2017 and here we are at the start of a new year full of new goals and possibilities? 2017 was a mixed bag for me. Running-wise it was fantastic, but other things not so much at all. Looking back at all of the things I have accomplished and all of the miles I have tackled make me feel nothing short of amazing. Incredible. Strong. BADASS. I wanted to do a quick run down of all the races I did this year. I didn't blog on all of them but I thought it would be fun. I ended up doing 18- YES EIGHTEEN races this year ranging from 1 mile to 100k (62+ miles) with a total of 1540 miles which is my highest mileage yet. So here goes, you ready?? 1.  Squirelly Tail Twail Wun  - 2/26/17, time 2:26:34. This was a super sweet, muddy race. The temperature was cold but not frigid and I had a course PR. I had so much fun and it was a great first race of the year for me. I plan to back in 2018 for year 4. 2.  Chambersburg half - 3/11/17, tim...
