Rants
Okay, so I don’t have a problem with people who have above average sized breasts. I really don’t. As I runner, I wouldn’t want them because I think it would be insanely uncomfortable.
What bothers me the most is that I always see pictures of some really skinny “fit” or “healthy” girl with huge breasts. She has a waist that is incredibly small and boobs...
This summer, I vow to do core, strength, and speed training. I will run, of course, but I will also diversify my life to be healthier. It will be hard, but I know it is worth it. I need to develop sustainability. So this summer, I will be well-rounded. I will strive for excellence!

When we run, we are free from our problems. I feel as though I don’t need to worry about life and I also find a new sense of clarity that makes life perfectly worry-free. Running is the cure. running is my cure.

So…I just watched last night’s NCIS. It’s my boyfriend’s favorite show and he couldn’t watch it last night so being the very nice girlfriend that I am, I waited so we could watch it together.
I have been watching this show since it was merely two episodes of JAG (I’m SO excited to see…
I agree. I’ve always loved those two together, but Tony has been so...

I had a great run and a wonderful walk today. I’m gearing up for a summer full of exercise. My sister and I will be going to Pilates tomorrow and yoga on Tuesday!

Running
People often ask, “Why do you run? What do you get out of it?”
Simply, I get to be who I am. The people I run with know me better than anyone. If I run alone, I get to experience confidence, passion, endurance, beauty, and joy. Running makes me happy. It makes me strong. I try to explain how much better it makes me feel, but truthfully, until those that ask attempt to run (and I mean...

At it again
I finished my fourth marathon last Sunday. The race made me appreciate how amazing I have it in life. I have great family and friends. I have the ability to run the amazing distance of a marathon. I’m alive and healthy. Running shows strength and endurance that is often difficult to understand.
The events of the Boston Marathon saddened me so much. I’ve been to the Boston Marathon as...

Running
I have been super inspired in my running lately. I have been running more miles and really making time for it so I can clear my head. Running is the kind of thing I can do when I’m anxious, scared, happy, sad, over-joyed, angry, sleepy, caffeinated, or just bored. Running can happen anytime of the day and is beneficial for every mood. Running helps me think. It helps me define who I am. I am...
More Marathon-ing
I am officially signed up for marathon number four. This one is in Eugene, Oregon. Marathon 4, state 4. It’s training time. I’m super excited. I think this will be a good race.

Again, it has been too long, but here we go...
My somewhat random, somewhat driven by personal experiences, thoughts today on a run with my sister. We were talking about people that have come into and sometimes left our lives. My sister is about to enter a doctorate program for clinical psychology, so it was an interesting topic. We mostly talked about self-esteem. You see, from the time my three siblings and I were young children, our parents...

my prayers go out to anyone affected by the Connecticut shooting…
I truly believe people can possess evil.. and it breaks my heart that these children, parents, and teachers have to suffer because of it.
These children and teachers who lost their lives will always be in my hearts, even though I do not know them. We are all connected on this planet, and I feel like I lost some of...

I’ve been super absent. Sorry peeps. I’ll try to be better. My running is going alright post-marathon, but it could be better. I’ve been really crazed with school. My teachers seem to be enjoying packing in more work than imaginable. I guess that’s life. But I would love more time to run.
Today on my run, I was a chatty cathy. I guess that’s the effect of having...
