Molly Murphy Memorial 5k Race Recap

Mile by Mile Running

On Sunday morning I participated in the Molly Murphy Memorial 5k with my family. My sister’s coworker had organized the race with her family in memory of their cousin. The race was to help raise awareness of anxiety and depression in young adults. It was held at a high school track, which isn’t too far outside of Baltimore, but it was about 45 minutes from my parents' house where we had all stayed for the weekend. We ... Read the Post...

Weekend Photos and Post 4th of July Meal Plan and Prep

After a great (but indulgent) 4th of July weekend, I wanted to come up with a meal plan that was simple but healthy  for the upcoming week. Before I get to that, I’ll share some pictures from the weekend.       As you can see, the weekend was filled with lots of family, food, and drinks. There was also a race involved- which I will recap tomorrow! I hope you had a ... Read the Post...

Get Your Core Ready To Run Workout

get your core ready to run

Happy 4th of July! I hope those of you who have a long weekend are celebrating and getting some great runs or races in. Today I am sharing a workout routine that I have found to be a great way to activate the core muscles before a run. You can do 1-3 sets depending on your strength and how much time you have. It could also be done after a run, or along with a strength workout.   If you are not familiar ... Read the Post...

When Less Is More

Sometimes less is more when it comes to running. I often feel like as a running-blog community we go through phases together. Everyone will be complaining about the heat or the cold. Everyone is dealing with injuries. Everyone is excited about PRs and races. Everyone is tired of the heat and needs a break from running. I think that’s where many of us are at this point. After enduring the long, cold winter we were all ... Read the Post...

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?

15 miles, over 1,100 feet of elevation gain, and 9 15 miles, over 1,100 feet of elevation gain, and 91% humidity 🫠 Pretty sure that was harder than my race last weekend, but got it done. Now off to my second workout of the day- taking the kids to an outdoor fun park. RIP to my legs. 
What are you up to this weekend?
