Half Marathon #13 for 2014: ZOOMA Annapolis Half Marathon

ZOOMA Annapolis Half Marathon May 31, 2014 2:22:35 Welcome to Venus! 13 half marathons in 79 days = FINISHED!!! Temp: high 50s and sunny, definitely warmer at the end What I wore: hat, short sleeve shirt, Skirt Sports Happy Girl skirt, PROCompression socks, and my trusty Altra Intuitions Race Morning I got up at 5am and slowly got ready.  I was sharing a room with Sue, so it was fun to chat while we were getting ready.  We ended up walking over to the start instead of driving.  The walk took less than 10 minutes.  I heard from others that parking was a breeze too.  Seems like you can't go wrong either way.  We met up with the Ambassadors for a photo op and then another one with MRTT and then it was go … [Read more...]

5 for Friday: Off to the Races!

OK, the first one is kind of a big deal! I'm racing 13 half marathons in less than 12 weeks. I start tomorrow with RNR USA and finish with ZOOMA Annapolis on May 31.  After each race, I will do a giveaway. That's right: 13 races, 13 giveways. If you've heard me talk about loving it, I've tried to get it for you.  Think compression, hydration, shoes, skirt...  13 awesome items that I love.  13 is my lucky number and I'm making it your lucky number too! 2. Yesterday I worked the ZOOMA booth at the RNR USA expo.  I'll be there again today.  I'll let you in on a secret: if you come to the expo and sign up, we'll give you a discount on the race AND a shirt like the one I'm wearing below.  Can't make it there and want to run ZOOMA … [Read more...]

And away we go!

And away we go!

Kim tagged me on Facebook yesterday to discuss training for her goal of 3 half marathons in 3 days (yes, she's running the first 3 days of Riverboat with me! Woot!) To help her out, I found the link to my training plan from last time. Last time, I started training in November.  Last time, the races were in mid-March. This time the races are in mid-April. Holy crap, that means I need to start training NOW. The goal plan from last time: The actual mileage ran last time: What this week looks like: I haven't written a training plan yet, but I'm thinking it will be similar to what actually happened last time, but hopefully a little higher mileage since I'm starting with a long run of 13.1 this time. It would be nice to do … [Read more...]

Rating April: #oopsanotherrace

At the beginning of the year, I set up one big scary goal: Take each day as it comes. Roll with the punches and keep on moving forward with a smile on my face. I’ve struggled with accepting that. The planner in me wanted everything on paper (yes, I still use a bullet journal – […]
