Fall Blog Post Round-Up

Happy first day of fall! Well, I guess it’s happy if you like fall. I’m not totally ready for cooler weather but I don’t mind September when it’s still on the warmer side. I tend to write about fall alot on here so I thought I would share a round-up of 5 fall blog posts I have shared over the last few years.

I tend to write about fall quite a bit. Here is a round up of my past blog posts all about fall: gear, races, running tips, and more!

Fall Blog Post Round-Up

Gear and Accessories I’m Loving for Fall Running: Looking for some fall running gear? Last year I shared some of my favorite fall items including clothes, gloves, headbands, and more.

Fall Running Tips: It’s always helpful to get a reminder about transitioning to running in the cooler weather! 

5 Things to Love about Fall: I never look forward to fall because it’s followed by winter, but usually it is a great time of year as the weather finally cools down!

Fall Should Mean Marathon Training?  Last year was the first time in 6 years that I didn’t have a fall race. I guess this is year 2 without training for something. Maybe 2018 will be the year I get back to it?

Fall Feelings:  Every year I have mixed feelings about fall. There are definitely some things about fall that make me happy and others that make me sad to say goodbye to summer

I hope that we have some nice running weather over the next few months. And for those of you who have big races this season, I hope the weather works in your favor! Train in the summer heat for cooler fall races, right?

How do you feel about fall?
Do you have any races this season?
Do you like fall running clothes?

I’m linking up with Lacey, Meranda,  and Rachel for the Friday Five 2.0!

    I do like running in the cooler temps of fall! We haven’t had much of that yet, but hopefully we’ll have a few before the temps plummet!

      Agreed! I feel like we had a little taste of fall running weather but nothing below 55 yet. Id like some high 40s/low 50s before we need to start bundling up in layers.

  2. Meranda@Fairytalesandfitness says

    I have mixed feelings about fall too! I like that it is an extension of summer but I don’t look forward to what comes after!

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:24 am

      Exactly! I think if we could skip winter (or at leas the months of Jan/Feb) then I wouldn’t mind fall quite so much!

    For me, fall running clothes are the same as summer running clothes, just with a shirt on instead of just a sports bra! I don’t wear capris… it’s either shorts or thick tights. I’ll wear my shorts when it’s like 40 degrees, but with long sleeves, a vest, gloves, and ear warmers haha! As long as my hands, head, and core are warm, I’m fine if my legs are flying free.

    This weekend I am going to a couple wineries with friends. I’m excited to be outside in the “fall” weather… the real feel is going to be 94!

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      It’s always funny to plan fall activities and then realize its going to be hot and you need to wear summer clothes lol! I used to wear shorts for much cooler temps than I do now. I think Ive just learned to appreciate capris.

    I also have mixed feelings about fall. If only the dreaded winter didn’t follow, right? This is my first year with not much for races happening…in a way it’s kind of nice to not have all that busy-ness, but it’s very foreign from what I know.

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:27 am

      One of my favorite parts about fall is racing, so its strange to not be doing that! But hey, at least we’re back to running, right?

  5. Deborah @ Confessions of a mother runner says

    September 22, 2017 at 8:58 am

    Fall is a great time to buy new gear for sure. I also get some mixed feelings as the years roll by as well now that you mention it. Fall views can’t be beat though

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:28 am

      Oh yes the fall colors are the best! When the weather cooperates its such a great time of year to be outside.

    I love the cooler temps and I feel like I run lighter. I didn’t have a fall race either last year, but I have Vegas this year, and I’m thinking about the MCM 10k next fall. Spring on the other hand is wide open, and I don’t know if I’ll do a race yet.

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:29 am

      Running in the cooler weather always feels so good!

  7. Marina @ Happy Healing says

    I love fall – it’s my favorite season. I really don’t like being too hot/the humid Boston weather! And I like both fall running clothes and fall regular clothes the best 🙂

    Hope you have a great weekend, girl!

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:29 am

      Fall clothes are great! Ive started breaking out some of my fall clothes even though it still feels like summer outside.

  8. Laura @ This Runner's Recipes says

    September 22, 2017 at 2:50 pm

    I love fall! Even though it means the approaching and inevitable start of rainy season, I love the cool temperatures, sunny skies, and colorful leaves. I’ll wear shorts until it’s 40, but I like being able to break out my arm warmers and long sleeve shirts.

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:30 am

      I think ideal running weather is right around 50 degrees when you can still wear shorts, with a long sleeve top or arm sleeves!

  9. Zenaida Arroyo says

    September 22, 2017 at 9:20 pm

    I love the weather in the fall. Today is the first day of fall and it was HOT! I hope it cools down soon to enjoy the weather.

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      September 23, 2017 at 6:31 am

      It’s always funny when it is technically fall but still so hot out. I’m sure the temps will start to cool off soon!

  10. meredith @ cookie chrunicles says

    September 25, 2017 at 8:12 am

    I do love fall running but gosh, it’s still so warm out!

    • Lisa @ Mile By Mile says

      Its so strange! Hopefully we will have some fall temps soon.

This morning’s run was an adventure with bugs ev This morning’s run was an adventure with bugs everywhere, lots of mud from all the rain we’ve had, overgrown trees blocking the sidewalks, and 93% humidity. Better than wind and ice I guess! Did you deal with anything annoying on your run today?

#run #runner #runchat #runbaltimore
How am I supposed to focus on this meeting when I How am I supposed to focus on this meeting when I just want to ask how many miles did you run this morning and what are you training for? #runner #runnersofinstagram #runchat
Fall is pretty good too but there’s nothing like Fall is pretty good too but there’s nothing like seeing the sunrise on a morning run! As an early morning riser I would be fine with a 4am sunrise but I know that’s not for everyone so I will just enjoy the 2 months of the year when the sun is up (almost) as early as me. #morningrunner #sunriserun
Let them be your reason, not your excuse. I coul Let them be your reason, not your excuse. 

I could sit here and tell you how hard it is to train with 2 young kids. How I rarely get a full night’s sleep anymore. How they got me sick the week before my race. How my SI joint just isn’t the same since my pregnancies. But that wouldn’t be fair, because I need to listen to my own advice that I give them about how to keep working hard and that there will always be obstacles to overcome.

After my race on Sunday I was thinking about how my Kindergartner has been working for a special award all year long. Many times he has told me he just wants to give up, because he works so hard for months at a time and still hasn’t earned it. I keep telling him that if he keeps working hard he will earn it, but what’s most important is that he gives his best each and every day. All those good days add up and even if he doesn’t earn the award, it will mean he had a great year.

Don’t I need to take my own advice and remember that all the good training days add up, even if I don’t get the outcome I want on race day? Before my race he kept telling me to do my best, and that he would give me a prize (artwork) even if I don’t win. So maybe all the lessons I am teaching him are starting to pay off? #motherrunner #halfmarathon  #frederickrunfest
