A Different Kind Of Runner

Mile by Mile Running

Do you ever feel like you go through phases with your running? Like maybe you started out doing it to lose weight and hated it. Or sometimes you are hardcore training for a race and other times you are just running whatever you feel like a few times a week. Maybe you even have had times when you stopped running for a bit- whether due to injury, a planned, break, or just life- but of course you were still a "runner" during ... Read the Post...

“Late Night” Thinking Out Loud

1. I don't think I will need to point out that today is Thursday because you will figure it out as you read today's random post. It will probably be even more all over the place than usual because I am writing this at 9pm and I usually don't blog anytime after 7pm. Plus,  had a glass of wine. Not enough to make this post really fun, but enough to produce extra scattered thoughts.  2. This feels ... Read the Post...

What I Ate Wednesday: It’s Been Awhile

Mile by Mile Running

It's been awhile since I shared a day of food on here. There are a few reasons for this, including that my food lately has been boring and I haven't been taking pictures of it. On Sunday I felt like some of my meals were photo-worthy for the first time in awhile, so I figured maybe they were worth sharing. And Sundays are usually the most random day of food for me because we are either trying to finish everything we have ... Read the Post...

If It Doesn’t Challenge You, It Doesn’t Change You

I can't remember where I first heard the quote "If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you", but it's something I have kept in mind with my running for several years now. I remember thinking about it on some of my toughest training runs. Mile repeats definitely stand out in my mind as a time when I thought about this:) Lately this has brought on a different meaning, as I have been humbled by learning new ... Read the Post...

15 mile long run workout this morning! Honestly, e 15 mile long run workout this morning! Honestly, every step of this felt challenging, so I’m pretty happy that I still hit my paces. I’m going to blame it on the humidity. WHY is it still so warm and humid when it’s almost October 😩🥵 I made the mistake of leaving my hair in a ponytail so of course it was a tangled mess by the time I was done. When will I learn? Just glad I got this done to wrap up week 9 of @richmondmarathon training! Is it still humid where you are? #run #marathontraining #richmondmarathon #longrun
Yesterday’s’ long run was 16 miles with 6 x 1 Yesterday’s’ long run was 16 miles with 6 x 1 mile MP/1 mile easy. I took a few hours of PTO in the morning to do this on the trail because I knew wouldn’t be able to do it this weekend. This was my first time on the trail since my marathon last November. It was nice to be back there and the perfect place to do this kind of long run. It was the kind of run where you start thinking “ok cool I just did a tough MP workout” but then you remember you actually need to run 26 miles in a row at that pace. Luckily there’s still 9 more weeks of training…although that doesn’t really sound like that much!
41 miles for the week and got in 2 strength sessions. Taking it easy this weekend other than chasing the kids around for all their activities! #run #marathontraining #longrun
It’s kind of freeing to not care about pace. It It’s kind of freeing to not care about pace. It is a little frustrating to have to plan more time for an easy run. But it’s definitely worth it to recover quicker and feel better on workout days! #run #marathongtraining #easyrun
You know marathon training is starting to get real You know marathon training is starting to get real when you start losing track of what training week it is. I had to check my calendar but this was week 6, so 10 weeks to go! 

I ran the Charles Street 12 last weekend so this week was all about easy miles and recovering from the race. That went well until I went and ran all the hills yesterday followed by walking around a maze and fun park for 5 hours. I got in some strength and mobility this morning and now I’m back to focusing on recovery!

If you’re training for a race how many weeks do you have left?
