Wife. Mother. Runner. Ranch abuser.
After 2 kids and an extra 50 lbs, I decided I didn't want to hate my bod any more. C25K, 10k, 10 miler, Half Marathon, 20 miler, Marathon. All in 2 years.
This year I will:
1. Trump last years 2 marathons
2. Learn to swim (efficiently) and complete a triathlon
3. Clean up my diet and maintain my weight
Join me while I do this awesome stuff.
see mom run
I haven’t been up this early in a loooooong time. Time for a run! Ultra training starts Monday. (Taken with instagram)
In lieu of running because of this stupid throbbing calf pain I just had a 16 mile bike adventure with Thing 2. Pulling around 50lbs on the back of your road bike is a sufficient workout, I’d say. Especially through the wind. That thing is like a bag of rocks! My legs are soooo dead now.
I’m so glad the nice weather is here, though! I look forward to future quad burning adventures!
What are you doing to get sweaty today?
New shoes did not make the cut. I’m starting to wonder if I’m….injured? Please, say it isn’t so. Any tips for calf burning pain? Also, it seems to be radiating up into my butt cheek, too, now. I will be on the foam roller until further notice.
I’m baaaack! After a breather and some crazy races and trips, I think I’m back. Marathon is in 2 short weeks and my calf has been KILLING me. Bought some new shoes and socks. Going to give them a whirl around the neighborhood.
What’s new around these parts?
So out there in the darkness, I found team “Plymouth to Provincetown Pitstains”!
I found @Erock, @MichelleRuns, @RunsLikeaPenguin and Mango.
I think they were surprised to see me. Awkward moment for this socially awkward goofball. “Hi, we don’t really know each other, but I’m here…
That’s me!!
rookcanrun asked: What team are you on? Ragnar goes like 1/2 mile by my house on Friday. What number runner are you?
We are the Plymouth to Provincetown Pitstains. I’m the 2nd runner. That’d be awesome to see you out cheering!!!
becky-balances asked: Where have you been? I miss your face on my dash!
I’ll be back soon! I’m trying to reassess my priorities…figuring some stuff out. Don’t worry, I’m still a running fool and crazy woman. Just did Tough Mudder this past Sunday! It was frickin’ awesome!! This weekend is Ragnar!
rookcanrun asked: How are you doing E? Haven't seen you posting. I hope you are still being a BAMF!!!
I’m still around :) Still kicking ass! Just laying low on the tumblr front. I have some family stuff I need to focus on. I’ll be back, eventually.
