Thinking Out Loud Thursday

So I am a little late to the party today, but never the less I am joining Running with spoons again for some random "thinking out loud."

I will start with why I am blogging so darn late in the day- work was holy terror, then I had a hair cut (LOVE!!!), came home for about an hour, talked to my neighbor and then went on a rainy run with friends.

Today was rainy, I started work early to cover for someone who was off, and it was just entirely too busy. Stress from the start of the day is just too much for me. Took a step back, took a deep breath and just mustered on hour by hour today.


The hair cut!! My hair salon moved and their new place is super cute. I haven't had a cut in almost a year and was pretty excited to get freshened up. 




I have been obsessed with watching this Netflix series 13 reasons why. While the premise of the series is sad and revolves around a teen suicide, this series is addicting as heck. It is hard to stop watching and I am sadly already on episode 12 of 13. After my haircut, I knew I had enough time to finish an episode before I had to leave again. WIN.



The second picture is the HUGE puddle on City Island.  It was supposed to be opening night for our local baseball team, but it was cancelled because it rained pretty hard most of the day.  More proof that runners are badass.. we were out there anyway! BOOYA. We did just a little over 5 miles and I can honestly say I NEVER would have made it out if it was just me tonight. I really needed to run off the day though so that can never go badly.

Now I am going to sit out the last of my hair dye timer, get my yoga in for the day and call it a day.. this girl is WIPED out. Maybe not the most random post ever, but just what is on my mind today. SOOOO glad tomorrow is Friday!!

What is the longest you have ever gone without a haircut? 
Do you like to run in the rain?

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...
