Summer travels
I’ve been saying I’m going to visit friends in different cities, but while many have come to DC, I haven’t been to their new cities…  So I’m making plans and buying tickets! June 10-12: NYC to visit this girl aka my freshman (and junior) year random roommate turned sorority sister turned hair twin turned I don’t even know anymore.  We’ve already worked...

Did I mention I get antsy when not on a training...
I have a trail half marathon in two weeks, but I’m running with a friend, and our only goals are to finish and to enjoy ourselves.  Therefore, while I’ve been getting my longer runs in on the weekends, I haven’t been on a focused training plan the way I have been for past races where I had a specific goal time in mind.  I’ve enjoyed the few bike rides I’ve done in...

Grrr pollen
Today I woke up to run before work, knowing that I had to work late tonight.  Not only were my eyes red and itchy during the run, but I sneezed about 20 times (not an exaggeration) once I finished my run.  Running in the snow and ice and cold was not fun, but this pollen is giving cold weather a run (ha, pun) for its money.

Because I can't sit still...
Coming down off several months of race-focused training is a challenge for me.  I ran a half marathon in February, another half marathon in March, and then (a week later) the 10-Miler in DC. I have committed myself to spending the spring and summer focusing on general fitness in addition to running, but I just can’t leave well enough alone… June 5: North Face Endurance Challenge Half...

Attempt #2: Philadelphia Marathon →
Anyone who asks me about my running usually gets much more than they asked for. Yes, I qualified for the Boston Marathon in October, 2010. Unfortunately my race was the week after registration opened, and as any Boston-aspiring runner knows, registration filled up in a record 8 hours.  So, that left me with a qualifying time of 3:36:40 (qualifying time for my age group is 3:40:59) that is good...
